IRS Won't Be Mailing Tax Forms Next Year - sm

WASHINGTON — Don't look for tax forms and instructions in your mailbox next year. The Internal Revenue Service has decided to stop mailing them because so many people now file electronically. The Washington Post reports on its website Monday that the IRS expects to save about $10 million a year by eliminating mailing.
More than 96 million people filed their returns through the IRS online service last year, and about 20 million filed paper returns through paid tax preparers.
The IRS says only 11.5 million people who filed paper returns received forms in the mail.
The agency says people who want to file paper returns will be able to obtain the forms from the IRS website or its offices as well as some libraries and post offices.
So they can pay the extra 16,000 new employees they will hire..... - SIGH.......nm

If You Work As An IC, Do You Still Get W2 Forms

taken out of your paycheck each pay period, or do you have to figure all of that out yourself? If so, do you think it's worth it to be an IC, or not worth it? If you're a non-married IC, how do you deal with medical insurance? Does the IC pay cover the difference? If you go without, how do you deal with doctor bills? Anything else I should know about being an IC? I've always been an employee, but some of the IC jobs look tempting, and I'm thin ...

I've had some dictate drug allergies in review of systems and medications in the plan and QA wants this. I don't get it.

FILLING THE GAP W/ Other Forms Of Transcription
Nov 17, 2011
Wondering if anyone out there has ever thought of filling the gap by moving into other forms of transcription... As EMR increases, pay dwindles and opportunities for traditional transcription diminish, I'm thinking that it might be wise to broaden my scope a bit. I've thought about court reporting (as a broad spectrum...not just actually in the court room) and other forms of transcription other than within the medical community. Does anyone have any ideas or experience with this or oth ...
Filling In Forms. How To Charge?
Dec 23, 2014
A doctor wants me to do PFTs from a premade template he created. It is about a page long. It would involve typing the clinical history (2 lines or so) and filling in a lot of blanks. He does not want to pay my line rate that I get for typing his office notes, but wants me to give him a flat charge per report that is much less than what I would get for typing dictation. Any advice on what I should price this at? ...

It is straight typing and involves insurance and legal matters and forms. If anyone wants to know more about it, I will be happy to let you know. I start in April. ...

Besides issues with a company that seems to have workflow problems and therefore tells the independent contractors to not work on their scheduled days because the work is low or on another day is sending e-mails that there is extra work and everyone needs to hustle , there is now a notice that there will be an adjustment in line rates. Of note, this company does not pay the highest line rates to start with. They want a schedule and we're expected to be available AND must produce a min ...
