For tax year 2012, my adult child, age 35, was unemployed and under a doctor's care for mental health. I was his full means of support and claimed him as a dependent for tax purposes. We financially supported him again in 2013. Can we claim him as a dependent for 2013 even though as of January 2014, we no longer provide full support and he is receiving Medicaid and food assistance starting in January 2014?

I was in Australia for 5 months on a 457 visa during the current fiscal year, paid in Singapore, and my visa was cancelled in December 2013. My company advised that I would not have to pay Australian tax as I am considered a Singapore resident. Do I still need to file a tax return in Australia, and if so, will I have to pay any tax?

Did the Mortgage Debt Relief Act get extended through 2015? If someone does a deed in lieu of foreclosure, do they have to pay the debt forgiven as ordinary income, and what are the legal requirements for insolvency to exclude forgiven debt from income?

Can I pay someone more per diem per hour than the federal tax rate? For example, if I get someone hired at $50/HR, can I pay them $35/HR per diem and $15/HR federal taxed? Is there a law against that or is it just frowned upon? In my line of work, it's very competitive, and other staffing agencies offer these lopsided per diem rates, and we are losing out on business because of it. I can't find a definitive answer anywhere online.
