Find ajusted gross income from w-2?

You W-2 form is not where you will find your adjusted gross income.

Your Adjusted Gross Income is located on your Tax Return form 1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ.

Does a married couple have to file joint taxes if one is on Social Security and the other is on Disability?

It is possible for some of the social security benefits to become taxable on any individuals income tax return. Your question about the other being on Disability is not clear because it does not specify what kind. How much, if any, of your social security benefits are taxable depends on your total income and marital status. Generally, if social security benefits were your only income for 2009, your benefits are not taxable and you probably do not need to file a federal income tax return. If you received income from other sources, your benefits will not be taxed unless your modified adjusted gross income is more than the base amount for your filing status. Your taxable benefits and modified adjusted gross income are figured in a worksheet in the Form 1040A or Form 1040 Instruction booklet.

What are the requirements for food stamp eligibility?

Eligibility for SNAP (food stamps) benefits is usually based on gross and net income (for families with at least one elderly or disabled member, just net income). Gross income limits are established by the federal government and adjusted annually. Current gross income limits are available from local SNAP benefits specialists. Gross income is total income minus verified legally obligated child support paid. A family may have liquid resources (cash, checking accounts, stocks, bonds, etc.) of up to $2,000. With one or more family members who are disabled or age 60 or over, the resource limit is $3,000.

What is the difference between Adjustable gross income and taxable income?

Taxable Income is your adjusted gross income minus your exemptions and either itemized or the standard deduction.ANSWER: The Internal Revenue Code defines taxable income as: Gross income minus deductions allowed (other than the standard deduction). In the case of the individual who does not elect to itemize his deductions for the taxable year... the term taxable income means adjusted gross income, minus the standard deduction and the deductions for personal exemptions provided in section 151. The problem with the definition of taxable income given by the Internal Revenue Code is that it leaves more questions than it answers and by defining taxable income as is one must now find the definitions for gross income, adjusted gross income and taxable year. But even before you wade through the Code doing due diligence in learning and knowing the law, there is a fundamental question that remains unanswered by the definition of taxable income and that question is, what exactly is being taxed? What is the subject of the tax? Is it a direct tax or an indirect tax? Is the subject of the tax people, property or activities and where specifically in the Code has a tax been laid upon that subject.Section 1 of Title 26 of the Unites States Code imposes a tax upon the taxable income of...it then lists certain individuals mostly through marital status to imply that everybody in one way or another is liable to this tax. Implication does not make one liable and if you want to see the Code clearly make someone liable I would direct you to sections 5005, and 5703. Once you read these sections you will see that people involved in a very specific taxed activity have clearly been made liable for an income tax. Why is the Code so clear in these sections and so ambiguous in the rest? This is not your problem or my problem. Our problem is that we can not have anything even remotely related to an intelligent conversation about this "Personal Income Tax Law" until we can know the subject of the tax.


What do you need to know about the 2010 income tax schedule?

The income tax schedule is what determines the amount of income tax owed to the federal government based on one's adjusted income for the year. Adjusted income is your total income earned minus deductions and allowances dictated in the tax law for the year. A combination of your filing status (single, married,...) and your adjusted income places you with in a tax bracket. A tax bracket derives taxes owed on income ranges using steadily increasing percentages as the income rises.

Give example in circularity definition?

A horse is a horse, of course, of course!The Internal Revenue Code Title 26 offers perhaps the cleverest example of circumlocution ever created. Begin with taxable income which is defined as gross income or adjusted gross income which is defined as all income from whatever source derived. However, understanding that taxable incomeis gross income or adjusted gross income earned in a taxable year it is necessary to define taxable yearwhich is a taxpayers annual accounting period. A taxpayer is defined as anyone subject to any tax under the revenue laws. Who is subject to the tax? In terms of revenue laws one would have to look at the sections that inform where a tax has been imposed. The beginning of Title 26 begins with a tax imposed which imposes a tax on...you guessed it taxable income. A horse is a horse, of course, of course.Who's on first. What's on Second and I Don't Know is on third.Who's on first?That's right.Who's on first?Yes.Then who's on second?No. What's on second.That's what I keep telling you, I don't know!He's on third.

How can one calculate operating expenses from a balance sheet?

To calculate operating expenses from a balance sheet, you can subtract the cost of goods sold (COGS) from the total revenue. Operating expenses include items such as salaries, rent, utilities, and marketing costs. Subtracting COGS from revenue gives you the gross profit, and then subtracting operating expenses from the gross profit gives you the operating income.
