This is a terrific channel with information for seniors! Thank you! Keep up the good work! I became disabled after my husband passed away and I owed taxes that he didn’t pay and also I owed Student Loans! The government forgave both the tax debt and the student loans after I filled out a form for the IRS that they shared with the Department of Education! The only times I was contacted was by scammers trying to get money by threatening to access my bank account. I told them that I was forgiven those loans and reported them! Yeah! For the Good Guys!

​@deeprollingriver52 I dispute your calling AARP a Liberal Flying Monkey. AARP is worthless for average Americans, when their aim is more toward the wealthy, and just wealthier Seniors. AARP also promotes big business, including private for profit rip-off medical Insurances, and others, even with its short stories they are woefully incomplete by providing little (if any) helpful information. And AARP it is often misleading, and lies by omission about Healthcare, etc. And most of the members of AARP do not use, or rarely use the discounts they offer, especially when most people can get Senior Discounts upon request anyway. So what you said deeprollingriver52 btw, nice user name) about AARP being "Liberal" has to come from a mindset of confusion in terminology, and especially even more so, when the word 'Liberal' is linked to "Flying Monkeys" which came from the movie, "The Wizard of OZ". These monkeys were sent by the witch to do her dirty work). Today the phrase for a "Flying Monkey" has since become synonymous with people who end up doing the dirty work of a Narcissist." Smh In saying that, this video and others like it do provide GREAT information that especially applies to Seniors, which fills in the large gap of the lack of information (for a large swathe of Seniors who need to know this, and Seniors who can and will benefit from it). SO, Great Job! And Thank You, SeniorLiving.org

I am currently on non-collectible status with the IRS. I just sent them a letter listing my income and my expenses. I didn't fill out a form, but in a few months, I received a letter telling me that they put me on Non-Collectible Status. However, they will continue to add the penalties if/when you pay. BUT, you can ask them to waive those penalty fees and they usually will!

Seniors who owe land taxes sometimes have to go hungry to pay their yearly taxes. In Wythe County Va people who are late on their land and home taxes are reported to the local papers and their names are put in there for all to see about their deliquent taxes...I have always believed that was an invasion of privacy.

@@SeniorLivingOrg I am aware of that but I do not think its fair to put people's names in the public papers for deliquent taxes. There are poor folks who own a house and are finding it hard to meet ends and get the taxes paid and its like punishing people.Also it invades privacy when they put names in the paper. Wythe county does it every year and the busy bodies and gossips wait for it every year so they can read the names. Its been going on for years and very cruel to the poor.

How I stopped paying income taxes at 31: I just stopped. How I stopped filing returns at 31: I just stopped. What I did to figure this out: I actually READ "Title" 26, with a law dictionary (NOT Webster's) in hand. Read the LEGAL definition of the term 'includes'. It means 'ONLY YTHIS'. Then look at 26 USC 7701 (definitions) where it defines the United States: it says "includes the District of Columbia" - in other words, it is ONLY the District of Columbia. In other places, sections will say that it "ALSO includes" territories, possessions, etc. In some sections it mentions the "50 states of the union", but NOT as "The United States". So in other words, UNLESS you "reside" in the District of Columbia, you ARE NOT "within" the United States. And (reading relevant sections) unless you have "income" that is "effectively connected with the United States" - guess what? You do NOT have "income" that is "within" the United States. This is not fantasy, it is not "patriot" BS, it is BLACK AND WHITE, written right there in Title 26 (which, BTW, has never been entered into law by an Act of Congress). It is the rules, so to speak, of the Internal Revenue Service. What's interesting is that NOBODY ever asks what that corporation's title means. Specifically what does the term "Internal" mean - internal to what? THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT! Well, what is "The Treasury Department" a department of? The FEDERAL RESERVE. The "Treasury" of the United States, as far as I've been able to figure out from my research, no longer exists, or has no actual function "within" the corporation we call the United States. There' a lot more to this, wherein one can find out what's the REAL situation with this corporation called the United States, what OUR relationship is to it as people out in the American states, and how almost nothing we've been taught about this "country" is true, but it's a lot easier if you ust go to anna von reitz' website (run it together and add com). She's not the only one who's be saying this, as The Informer and his fellow researcher found this out back in the 80's, and Karl Lentz has been teaching how to use common law, based on this info, but I figured it out on my own in the mid 80's - because I realized LEGAL terms rarely have the same meaning as everyday ordinary language words. That's why you have to use a LAW dictionary when reading statutes, codes, rules, regulations, public laws, etc.

There is a tribe in this world that has attached these taxes to the people because America went bankrupt in 1933; furthermore for the Payback a Social Security number was attached to everyone being born. This number is a corporate number to the corporate District of Columbia. Putting your name in all caps to where you are obliged to pay taxes in order to pay back the money changers. The IRS is not a federal agency. It is a private Corporation.

IRS files a "notice of lien", not a Lien, which is a judgement after due process is invoked. Notices are not liens, but banks surrender the victim's funds unlawfully by treating a notice of lien as if it was a valid lien. This is a crime by the bank, but no prosecutor will charge them.

A senior friend of mine in Oregon owns her property and little falling apart trailer she lives in on the property. She has no retirement. She saves up her social security all year in order to pay her property tax. She has to get food card in order to eat. She got her food benefits cut off because of the $ she had in bank she saves up to pay her taxes. Absolutely ridiculous. She gets letters from IRS all the time because she is barely able to keep up with back property tax before the new tax bill comes in. I wonder if this is just an Oregon thing.

For the vast majority of seniors, at least right now, tax rates are very favorable and you will pay none or very small amount (which is more than reasonable).

Social Security and pensions are protected from state tax collectors. Twice the amount of monthly federal benefits including SS deposited into a bank account are protected from garnishment by federal banking regulations,. If you had another account then it could be subject to garnishment but if the source of the funds were exempt SS or pension then you could file a claim of exemption, However states make that process difficult or hide it. Sometimes Credit Unions don't understand the law and allow a garnishment by a state contrary to federal law. Eric Olsen Executive Director HELPS

Perhaps in very peculiar cases with persons with very very high taxes and very valuable homes, they might take steps but if your CPA told you that he was incorrect. The right to do something and what happens in the real world is often completely different. The video talks about set off of SS, garnishment of income wasn't addressed.

When the firm closed is went bankrupt I collected unemployment which was not enough to cover my mortgage or anything else. I borrowed from my 401k/IRA. I did not take out taxes because I needed every cent. I was 54/55 in 2011. I still owe $2900 which is now $3935. I paid a little here and there. They called my case UNCOLLECTIBLE. However they never told me interest would build up if I paid a little or nothing. I'm collecting SSDI as of end of 2018. What can I do to remove all of it? I was told the monthly arrangement could be as low as $55. I cannot pay that much. In 10 years they can't get any funds from me.

Must seniors first file the tax form to get the non collectible status, or can they ask for non-collectible-status before before they file?

Property tax is levied by the county and state, not the federal government. (That's why the IRS wouldn't pursue your home. There's a case coming before the Supreme Court in which a state has not only kicked someone out of her home and sold it, but kept ALL the proceeds of the sale, much more than what was owed.

State tax collectors cannot garnish SS and pensions. Your income is protected in a bank account as described in the video from garnishment by a state tax collector. Twice the amount of monthly federal benefits is protected automatically in the account into which they are deposited no matter the actual source of funds in a bank account at a time of garnishment. This applies to judgment creditors INCLUDING state tax collectors. Eric Olsen Executive Director HELPS Nonprofit Law firm

This is currently happening to Me in Ashtabula County OH - My Mom died 2009, I was named as executor, 3 months later I was removed as ex, - reason: I allegedly did not list a Estate owned vacant lot for sale, yet I instructed the R.E. Broker to forward listing paperwork to opposition lawyer. I was removed as Ex. a subsequent hearing was scheduled at which I was presented with a copy of the new appraisal of the vacant Estate owned property, appraised by the same appraiser as Myself! On the cover of the appraisal was the same photo used when I had the property appraised several month prior. In front of the Magistrate that removed Me as Ex, I pointed to the photo and stated - See that Caldwell Banker for sale sign ! that is the sign that proves I had listed the property for sale when You removed Me - NOTE: this was proof provided by the opposition and ignored again by the Magistrate just as previous proof was ignored. ( The Judge was being poisoned with antifreeze by His, Nurse, wife at the time - He lived : ethyl alcohol is the antidote to antifreeze ). This was only one of many bizarre instances of blatant denial of the facts. 2 years later after which the property could not be sold ( 2008 -2009 G.F.C. ) I was offered the property at no offset to any distribution and I accepted in writing 2 ways including registered mail, but was instructed to sign a blank page in acceptance, I refused. The property remains titled in My late Mothers name as of today. The tax collector wants Me to pay the back taxes, now almost $6K, on the lot, however the subsequent executor of the Estate having received almost $100K in Estate cash neglected to distribute it and was dismissed by the same Magistrate without transferring the vacant lot nor was there an accounting of the Estate !!! WHAT !!! Did I mention that the opposition Lawyer as well as the Magistrate and likely Judge were, allegedly, socially alcoholically associating with the opposition? This is only a portion of what I can only describe as racketeering. I gave 6 years of My life to protect this Country and this is what I get for it. Finally, the property taxes on My primary residence increased 52% this year.

what about property taxes for seniors

Property taxes are a different animal. They are governed under state laws. They are really owed by the property to which they attach. Some states have programs that reduce property taxes for seniors. There are sometimes other answers. I believe Senior Living will be doing a video on this topic shortly that will answers questions in this area. Eric HELPS Nonprofit Law Firm

I am 70 and still working part time and have a 401K. Why do I have to pay 20% Fed tax and state tax to take out my ???? Will I get that back when I file my taxes?

@richardayala4356

3 жыл бұрын

Depends if your contributions to the 401k were pretax or post tax. If pretax, you are deferring the tax to when you start receiving your 401k, if your contributions were post payroll taxes, then you already paid the tax and there is no taxes on the 401k distributions except on the investment gains made by your 401k because this is passive income and gains separated from its capital is income. Will you recoup the tax when you file your income tax...probably! This interview on KZread really doesn’t help you.
