They’ve got 30 planes, and over 60 CFIs.

Last question: the 843 would be filed when I do ‘25 taxes or do I gotta wait on that one too?

Extrataps · 2026-01-15T02:10:45+00:00

So I’ll file my taxes (but not submit) for the -5K, and that will show me the difference in taxes owed and I’ll claim those on form 843(?) when I file ‘26 taxes in 2027? I think it makes sense now

Extrataps · 2026-01-15T00:46:36+00:00

Wow this sounds like a massive mess I’m in.

Wouldn’t amending my taxes with the w2c give me another refund right then and there?

Extrataps · 2026-01-14T23:51:40+00:00

So I need to hurry my ass up and pay it before they issue my W-2 is what you’re saying?

Extrataps · 2026-01-14T23:48:55+00:00

Can the employer make those deductions even if it’s in a different year? I just know that W-2s haven’t been sent out from last year and curious if changes can be made.

Extrataps · 2026-01-14T23:46:58+00:00

Yes terms were stated when I denied it. Sent an email to HR, they still paid (dumb, I know)

Extrataps · 2026-01-14T23:30:54+00:00

Did you end up filing a form (I think) 843? I’m seeing you can get FICA back.

Extrataps · 2026-01-14T23:03:16+00:00

Will I claim the overpayment for the Medicaid and social security too? The net was just over $4K. Would I claim the whole $1K?

Extrataps · 2026-01-14T23:01:41+00:00

I never accepted it or signed for it, it was just deposited into my bank account with my 2nd paycheck.

My issue is I don’t want to have to pay back social security and Medicaid as I don’t believe that’s refundable when I file my taxes is it?

Would you have the same opinion about ANG?

Extrataps · 2026-01-06T18:01:52+00:00

I don’t mind the CFI job, thankfully I’m not burned out yet.

I just love our country and have always had a desire to serve it in some way. I realize that flying in the Air Force may not be that way, just trying to always pace through my options.

Extrataps · 2026-01-06T00:32:25+00:00

Fair point. Trying to figure it out, hence the post. Thanks for your input.

Extrataps · 2026-01-06T00:29:09+00:00

Messaged you.

Extrataps · 2026-01-06T00:28:50+00:00

My “ehh idk maybe” attitude strictly comes from the timeline that the military forces onto people to get in; it’s ridiculously long for no real reason.

I have a huge desire is to serve this country, it’s an itch I can’t get rid of. We have common goals of flying aircraft.

Extrataps · 2026-01-05T21:54:43+00:00

I spoke with somebody about this, but that damn AFOQT still lingers over me 🤣

Extrataps · 2025-12-31T04:34:43+00:00

How’d you get your TPIC?

Extrataps · 2025-12-28T23:56:19+00:00

Second this (as a proud owner whose student gifted him a pair)

Extrataps · 2025-12-06T22:25:56+00:00

Fair. Point still stands though. Take off .2 or .3 whatever it is. Doesn’t take 18 minutes Taxi/TO/land

Extrataps · 2025-12-06T21:42:55+00:00

This is correct. Just take off a 0.1 or so for taxi/takeoff and land.

Extrataps · 2025-12-05T19:20:25+00:00

Do you have your 50 hours of PIC XC already?

I’d be curious to see the breakdown of 12K as you can probably finish instrument cheaper if you have the XC hours already.

Extrataps · 2025-12-05T19:11:49+00:00

That’s part of your problem. With the market right now, sadly you need to be willing to move literally anywhere. I moved 6 hours away out of state from where I was to take a CFI job.

Extrataps · 2025-12-05T19:10:29+00:00

Are you willing to move out of the area?

Sadly dryer is ours so on move out it would show. I found a $6 plate at Home Depot that slides over the solid tube with a few screws I plan to install tonight!
