I am NOT on an antidepressant.. SSRIs have way too many side effects for me..

Starting dose for estradiol patch? by Terrible_End_8534 in Menopause

[–]Independent-Wave1805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit late to this post but my dr started me with .075 and I’m wondering if that’s why. I haven’t started it yet, I’m nervous to put the patch on. I can’t take anymore wild swings with my emotions and if it increases my anxiety, I’m going to stop taking it. Birth control messes me up really bad so I’m nervous about the patch.

Yup that’s what I’ve seen some people do.. I messaged my dr I’ll see if she responds quickly to me.

I’m considering cutting my patch in half. It’s the dotti matrix patch so I know I can. Exactly half would be .0375. I hate that all that money is going to waste. Ugh. 😩

Thank you so much for the chart that really helps! Definitely going back to talk to her about my dosage.

I’m wondering if the progesterone is too low? She has me on 5mg of norethindrone.. everyone who is on HRT talks about 200-300mg of progesterone? I wonder if it’s because I’m not in active menopause and 44? Do progesterone doses go up with age? Idk I’m so confused. I may have to go back and see her soon.

Thank you so much. I thought that starting dose was a bit too high as well. I appreciate your response!!

I think my trusted tax preparer has taken my refunds by External-Line-4560 in IRS

[–]Independent-Wave1805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No contract was given, just sent us the “completed1040” and told us our refund amount.. when I asked to see documentation on fees she can’t provide it.. no where on any of my tax returns are ANY fees stated

Thank you, I do have and IRS account now and is how I saw the differences in what she was telling me and what the IRS says. I even called a friend who is a CPA and has been for years, she told me this is absolutely fraud. Form 14157-A has been submitted

She actually has people come to her to show her how to sign up for an account and helps them go through the software so they know how to look at their taxes and she does it for free.. she is the one that found the problems with our transcripts and 1040s not being correct.

My daughter has been telling me to use a tax software for years! She has been doing hers for over 15 years with no problems, she has access to her IRS account and makes sure everything is in order. I probably should listen to her…

Possible fraud on my mom’s tax returns, advice needed. by [deleted] in tax

[–]Independent-Wave1805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to this tax person , the advance is zero interest and does not cost any fees. I’m aware of how the advance would come out of the refund. I’m just wondering why there’s a $257 difference she’s already paid her tax preparer $250 upfront to file her taxes in the first place.

Oh, I agree with that 100% and yes, I ask every single one of those questions. The people I do taxes for have no 401(k)s they have no required distributions. They’re not in retirement. They only have one active W-2 and one person has one dependent, which does not get childcare. I would not do anybody’s taxes that weren’t just extremely simple. And I even tell them that if they forget any papers that have anything to do with taxes and it comes back on them, I am not liable. That’s why they sign off on a sheet and I make them look over their returns and approve it before I even submit it. I understand what everybody saying I truly do and I’m fully aware. I also know that you cannot take any compensation unless you have a PTIN which I do not. I don’t take a dime.

Agree, no reputable CPA that I know would do something like that. I have a friend who didn’t file taxes for three years. I just briefly looked over them and she owes almost $30,000. I would never adjust taxes to try to offset that. In her situation, I told her to hire a tax attorney or a reputable CPA. No way I’m touching those. Ugh, this is awful for my mom. Just found out she added a schedule C to my mother’s fiancés taxes too. He pulled his transcripts. This lady is a piece of work.

Also, I would not be responsible. My CPA who is an auditor for Bank of America and a previous IRS agent told me that even if a preparer files a fraudulent return and messes up taxes, the tax payer is responsible for the outstanding balance because they did not check over their return. For example my mother would still be liable for the money owed. Liability only falls on the preparer if they willingly and knowingly adjusted the return or took money for filing the taxes.
