I have a wholly owned California corporation that is no longer active but has funds. When I take distributions from this corporation in the form of dividends, are they qualified dividends or ordinary dividends?

Can I list my wife on my 2016 federal tax returns? I brought her to the USA legally under a K1 visa, and married her in 2016. She just received her work authorization and social security number in 2017. She had no wages or income in 2016. She does not have a green card yet. Is there any reason why I can't include her on my 2016 tax returns? Please explain.

I am transitioning from filing married jointly to filing married separately with two separate addresses. I need to know how to report our income, given that Wisconsin is a community property state. My husband is semi-retired with two businesses, one of which is an LLC where he is the sole member, and he made approximately $96,000 with a profit of $18,000 after expenses. He also has a small farm with a loss. I only made $1,000 from his business. How should we report our income and deductions?

My CPA omitted information in 2013 and 2015, causing me to be audited and pay more taxes than necessary. My husband's pension was listed on two 1099 forms, but only one was included in my taxes. This omission is going to cost me a significant amount of money. Can I sue my CPA?
