My mother died in 2011, and her executor, my sister, has not filed her final 2011 tax return. My brother and I have repeatedly asked about filing the tax return and offered to do it ourselves if my sister provides the necessary documents. My sister has refused and has not completed other required tasks of the estate, such as distributing trust money and providing financial records. Should I contact the IRS to explain the situation and concerns about the unfiled tax return?

I made a personal investment (over $10,000) to a business friend in 2013. What was left of the initial investment was returned to me (resulting in a loss) in 2014. How do I report this on my 2014 taxes?

When calculating child support payments and the other party has an income of $16000.00, does the EITC (earned income tax credit) of $3300.00 and the child tax credit of $1400.00 get factored into the end result in the state of Idaho?

I am a green card holder and inherited full ownership of a property in the UK. I have been a tenant in common on the property since 1997. What are the tax implications if I sell this property and use the money to buy a house in the US?

I am a 1099 salesperson earning bonuses and monthly residual income from credit card processing accounts. The company has offered to buy $5,000 of my monthly residual income for $150,000, which they will deduct from my residual income for life. Can I treat this as capital gains since I am 'selling' my $5,000 monthly interest in my portfolio?

We had a mortgage with a balance of approximately $150,000, abandoned the property, and it went to foreclosure with a sheriff's sale. We received $6000 from an independent foreclosure and filed bankruptcy including the full loan amount. The IRS now wants us to claim the $6000 as fully taxable income in 2013. Does that sound right?
