Tax question about flexible spending account!!!!?

From 1/1/06 through 7/5/06, I participated in the gov%26#039;t flexible spending account to pay for my daughter%26#039;s afterschool and summer camp (apx. $2200/yr). $1100 was deducted from my salary pre-tax. 7/10/06 I started a new job, and I will never participate in a fsa again.

Her father claims her on his taxes, and will claim the child care credit for the second part of 2006. We are not married, he files head of household and claims her so that we get the earned income credit (he earns a good bit less than I do). I know how we need to do that. My question is... I file single using the 1040EZ, what do I need to do concerning the $1100 from the fsa? Will I need to use a different form? Any help is appreciated.

I usually file my own taxes, so please don%26#039;t suggest asking my tax preparer. Thanks!!!!!

I don%26#039;t think that you owe tax on that money.

I have used a health-care FSA for the last several years.

I cannot remember having to do anything special on my tax return for the FSA. I do my own taxes using TurboTax on the PC.

I don%26#039;t think that you do anything with that $1100 number on your tax return. Look on your W-2, which is reported to the IRS. I don%26#039;t think that it will be there. Now if you had a 401(k), the amount of money contributed DOES show up on your W-2.

A medical FSA works this way:

- Contributions are deducted from each paycheck

- If you leave before the end of the year, no more payments are deducted

- If you have an expense AFTER you are no longer employed, you don%26#039;t get reimbursed

- If you use up all the money BEFORE you leave, you don%26#039;t have to pay it back

So, if you could have paid for the whole year before 7/5/06, then started a new job, you would have paid only $1100 but spent $2200 and not have to make up the difference. As it is, you paid for what you used, so that%26#039;s fair.

ithink you are stuck in a unchangeable situation

Thomas K Is correct! The only direct connection with the FSA and your annual income taxes is the amount of your Taxable income reported on your W2 box 1 is lower.

Any money deducted by your employer for the FSA reduced your taxes in this maner.

Good day!

Is there any government hospital or medical center in your area? I believe those government medical institutions offers dental services at lesser price or even free. They are actually paid by the government to serve the people at the best of their capability for the citizens%26#039; welfare and health, so try to see a dentist who is working in a government hospital and get your teeth problem solved.

Your best bet is to see if there is a dental college near you and have the students work on your teeth for free or next to nothing. We have a dental college here in CA and lots of people go there for their dental work.

Please help!!!! bad teeth?

check out the free clinics in your area...they will work out a deal for you...or hook you up to someone who can.

Please help!!!! bad teeth?

check out some %26quot;affordable dental plans%26quot; in your area some are only 15-25 $ a month for the whole household my state isnt far from yours but it may be different there. or there may be somthing through the state that you are eligable for. also try going to the dental colleges in your area and asking them if they will fix your teeth for not alot of money. the colleges might also have resources on where you can get them fixed if they arent able to fix your teeth themselves. good luck! :)

If it was accepted 2/5, and you had direct deposit, it should have been deposited on 2/15 unless something about your return is being examined further.

Human Society said my kittens leg is broken by the elbow joint.Surgery may not be a sucess.What shou

Michigan Humane Society Took X-rays on my kittens leg. They said my kittens elbow may not function well after surgery as an option. He walks and hops but not that much in pain. They said it my be better to amputat the leg. I dont want to see him hoppin on 3 legs. But he could still be alive. Care credit will allow me $500. Surgery will be about up to $2000. Or about $1000 for amputation. What should I do next. I have no money for this action. If I take it in to Humane Society the will put it to sleep (youthinize it). I wouldnt want that. Do you think I should get a second opinion? Anyone have a suggestions?

Human Society said my kittens leg is broken by the elbow joint.Surgery may not be a sucess.What should I do?

Give it sometime and see how it heals on its own. If its not in pain then wait and see.My shepherd was hit by a car (broken hip) and healed in weeks as good as new. worth a try!

Human Society said my kittens leg is broken by the elbow joint.Surgery may not be a sucess.What should I do?

I would seek aa second opinion.

Human Society said my kittens leg is broken by the elbow joint.Surgery may not be a sucess.What should I do?

I would get the amputation done and set up a payment plan. Most places will do that. OR you can get a short term loan for $500.

Human Society said my kittens leg is broken by the elbow joint.Surgery may not be a sucess.What should I do?

For them to charge $1000 for the amputation is WAY out of line! Granted my cat%26#039;s tail amputation was less complicated but was maybe one or two hundred dollars. Get a second opinion AND lots of cats do quite well on three legs. He is already walking and hopping on the other three legs so he will do just fine if he only has three permanently. It%26#039;s hard to see for you but he%26#039;ll still be a happy little kitty because you love him and take good care of him! Good luck with everything and keep us posted.

It may seem heartless, but I would put the cat to sleep.

(I live in the country and cats out here need to be able to fight, or else can%26#039;t go out and I couldn%26#039;t do that to kitty)

You must phone and find out as some dentists do use cr card facilities.

Does anyone know how to get help with Dental Cost?

I wanting to know if anyone has any information on how to get help for dental cost, the portion that your insurance has not covered? My husband has a lot of work that needs to be done and its going to cost over $3000 and we do not have that money, and all you know that Dental Places want their money up front right away. We already tried applying for financing such as Care Credit and did not qualify, so now we are looking at other ways to help us pay for this work, cause he really needs it done. So any information that anyone has would be very much helpful. Thank you!

Does anyone know how to get help with Dental Cost?

couple of low cost suggestions:

1) dental school: i know it seems scary, but students in the clinic have been %26#039;practicing%26#039; on mannequins for 2-3 years prior, under the supervision of many highly qualified area dentists, and nothing is done without at least two other people checking. it does take some time but you can get a crown for $500 versus $1000+ in private practice.

2) community health centers: again cheap option, about 25% off from private practice. foreign trained dentists usually but all qualified and licensed.

3) state aid insurance like medicaid: some dentists take it and you can get care for 50% off or just a copay.

good luck

Check out a dental school, the work may be cheap or much less than $3000. Care credit it really hard to get approved, if your credit is not pefect. Most people get denied. You might want to look at a personal credit card or loan from the bank or credit union. The interest would be much less than with Care credit. Also ask the dentist for a discount. He pays Care Credit about 20% for each loan, so he/she may pass the saving to you instead if you use a different source to pay.

Unfortunately dentistry is expensive and most dentist want the money up front anymore. Ask the dentist to do the worst stuff first and maybe your husband can at least buy some time. Good luck!

Your best bet even with bad credit score is to apply for the membership with DentalService4Less. Make sure you have participating dentist near you or in the places you normally travel to. Search very carefully by zip code or full address. Saving 50-60% is worth it!

Hypersensitivity Only? My Tooth Hurts!?

My xrays from a year ago show a tiny cavity. I%26#039;ve been in and out for the last year getting 3 root canals done and all on a low budget with Care Credit. My fillings are next in line. My next apmt is on March 28th. However, 2 days ago my tiny caivty tooth started hurting right after a bowl of cold cereal. It was a slight lingering ache... almost a pusle. Then it went away and returns now everytime I brush my teeth. I took a dental tool with a mirror to take a look at the tooth since xrays were taken a year ago. The tooth still doesn%26#039;t look any different but a tiny piece of filling is missing... which is now a yellowish color. The tiny cavity hasn%26#039;t changed at all. I%26#039;m so worried this pain is associated with a root canal again. Can someone please tell me, could this just be hypersensitivity? Any professionals out there I would really appreciate the help. Going in to DDS this week for check up. Thanks.

Hypersensitivity Only? My Tooth Hurts!?

This pain doesn%26#039;t mean root canal, cavities will respond with this kind of pain, which is sensitivity to heat/cold, sometimes brushing or any similar stimulus.

Root canals pain is usually a throbbing pain of a more intense nature, it usually responds to heat/cold but keeps hurting for extended period of time (certainly more than seconds and into minutes), and most importantly it is spontaneous, meaning pain can start and stop by itself without any stimulus.

however, some root canals present with no pain at all.

if you have a small cavity a year a go, it%26#039;s unlikely to change into a root canal that fast, and hopefully it%26#039;s a filling still. but make sure you see the dentist ASAP.

Good Luck
