In November, I withdrew my entire Thrift Saving Plan (TSP) to buy a home, resulting in $78,000 withheld for taxes. My annual salary is $70,000, and the TSP withdrawal was $394,000. My tax accountant calculated that I owe $47,000 in federal taxes and $41,000 in state taxes, putting me in a 39.9% tax bracket. Is this accurate, considering the TSP money was received in November and I won't earn that much again? I invested $315,000 into my home and now lack the resources to pay the taxes.

I was scammed by an investor who took $17,500 from me. He created a fake account showing daily progress in a binary investment company. When it was time to receive my payout, he insisted on upfront commissions. I paid him $17,500, but he never released my payout and has since gone missing. I reported this to the FTC. Can I deduct any of these losses on my taxes, and what documentation do I need to provide for this deduction?

For an LLC disregarded entity, how can the owner distribute income that was already taxed in the previous year without being taxed again in the subsequent year, especially when the cash flow from the LLC is insufficient to cover the distribution in the same year?

My wife works from home in Kansas but gets paid out of Nebraska, and I work in Missouri but live in Kansas. We received a federal refund and refunds from Missouri and Nebraska, but Kansas wants to charge us $5,000. Why is this, and how can we avoid double taxation?

I filed my taxes this year but did not include the sale of my house in Colorado and the purchase of my house in Texas. All the money I made from the sale was put into the house I bought. What should I do?

My husband filed an extension in 2013 but later we got married in May and filed a joint return. According to my tax transcripts, the filing status keeps getting adjusted to 'single' each time we file. How do I fix this?
