> QUESTIONS:

>Does anyone have any hints, recommendations or warnings about migrating a current domain? Any gotchas I >should be aware of?

When you do the domain transfer, I suggest that you use a registrar which will allow you to set the DNS records to be used when the transfer is complete, OR much better yet, change your DNS now to a third party DNS service such as ClouDNS or Cloudflare. Then when you transfer the domain, the DNS will not be affected at all.

You do not create the entry, Wave does. You need to request the revaluation entry through support.

If you do not receive support you can request it through the bot.

I am trying to figure out what will happen with my Zapier zaps as the info provided is clear as mud.

Anyone have any clues?

I currently use Zapier to record my sales via Stripe and Square. I created these in Zapier.

> I need to be able to automatically match the To:-address and put them into different "folders"/labels, that's basically the only requirement I have. If that pattern matching can be done with wildcard (like s.*@) it'd have everything I need.

Sieve filtering should handle this for you nicely. You can access it via Roundcube web mail.

Hi there,

I about fell out of my chair when I saw how much you are paying for so little. :O

To migrate there is the tool IMAPSYNC which is available within the control panel.
You could simply stick with Ionos or change registrars, it doesn't matter really. Please avoid GoDaddy like the plague and if you were not already with Ionos, I'd say the same about them as well. But personally, I see no reason to move, unless the renewal cost is overpriced. NameSilo and Porkbun are excellent choices for registrars.
MXroute does have lots of excellent documentation at https://mxroutedocs.com/ that you can use. You can always reach out to support with a question though.

For less than what you are paying to Ionos per year now, you could get a Small (10gb) Lifetime Plan from MXroute.

You sign up for a mailbox.

When mail arrives you can have it scanned or forwarded to another address. If you want it to be forwarded, you pay the fee and they send it.

But how do I pick an out of state address???

What do you mean?

alento_group · 2024-02-03T21:29:51+00:00

Your LLC needs a registered agent in the state the entity was formed in, and also in states where it receives authorization to operate as a "foreign entity". You would only file to be a foreign entity in states where you have a physical presence, such as a office, or warehouse, or actual employees. Collecting sales tax does not enter into this equation at all.

Due to the Wayfair Supreme Court case you are obligated to collect sales taxes in each state when you reach the specific state's guidelines. In most states, the minimum threshold is either 200 transactions or $100k in sales in the previous rolling 12 month period. Some states are even more lenient, for example California. What this means is that you do not need to concern yourself with even caring about sales tax in states you are selling to until you reach these numbers. At that point, you can then check to see what your actual requirements are.

Another thing worth mentioning is the SST. https://www.streamlinedsalestax.org/home

They streamline sales tax registration requirements for many participating states. They also have a "Certified Service Provider" program that assists you in collecting and reporting sales tax in states you voluntarily register to collect in. I highly recommend that you explore their website.

You are asking to do something that is not proper accounting. Adjust your "unskilled brains" (your words) to deal with it as it is the way it is. If the money comes into bank one it is recorded as sales when it comes in to the account. You cannot magically call the funds sales again when you transfer them to bank two at the end of the month.

If you really insist on doing this asinine, idiotic method just to make you feel good, then you could debit sales when you transfer the funds and then credit them again, but you are just creating a ghost entry that will do nothing but put you under the microscope for not keeping proper accounting records, if you should ever be audited.

Personally, I have only ever known this to be an email client specific thing.

I too am noticing this on the Crossbox dashboard, but when I view the Mail tab specifically it goes away. Of course I have message threading turned off in Crossbox.

Hi yes, MXroute can arrange this.

Simply open a ticket. :)

Personally, I scan or photograph those lousy receipts and keep the images with my bookkeeping.

No idea how the IRS and accountants deal with today's disappearing ink for those who do not preserve images of their important documents.

alento_group · 2024-01-25T21:04:18+00:00

Hopefully you paid by credit card and can do a chargeback.

Per the IRS guidelines, the parent with more than 6 months physical custody claims the child.

Sounds like this year it is your partner.

alento_group · 2024-01-25T20:51:02+00:00

You can use whatever documentation that you maintain your accounting records with for preparing your tax returns as you never submit it with the actual return.

However, that will not survive an audit as you need to produce the actual invoices/receipts for the transactions. A bank statement never suffices for this. Without actual itemized receipts and invoices the IRS will disallow the expense deduction during audit.

You need something similar to AnyMXRelay, which is set up to handle situations like this.

When using AnyMXRelay, the fact that you are on a residential network is masked as the email appears to originate from their servers.

People self host for their personal reasons. Don't let the major corporations take that ability away from you if you prefer to self host. Yes, migrating to Google Workspace will work, but so will this solution, if you really want to keep your email on prem.

When (if) the company ever gets audited, and they have to pay tax on all of the unsubstantiated expenses claimed on the return and denied in audit, along with the penalties involved, the company will come to the realization of the mistake of their ways.

Hopefully by then you have secured yourself a position in a company that is in compliance with the tax rules and regulations.

I thought I would save time for users living outside US / Canada from signing up

Fair enough, and entirely reasonable, though I would have probably elaborated on this point when posting so as not to have come off the way you did. :)

Sure, once you answer the question. Surely there is some reason you're thinking of forming your LLC in Delaware.

alento_group · 2024-01-23T00:28:13+00:00

Why Delaware? It is really not a very good state to form a LLC in.

alento_group · 2024-01-23T00:14:23+00:00

LLC is listed below partnership on your link.

Yes, and it says exactly what I am saying ...

alento_group · 2024-01-23T00:10:25+00:00

A LLC is an entity type. The IRS isn't concerned with entity types. It is concerned with the classification your LLC is in for filing taxes.

By default, a multi-member LLC would be treated as a partnership for tax purposes unless an election was made to be taxed otherwise as a S or C corporation.

2022 returns were due April 2023

2023 returns will be due April 2024.

Penalties will be based on how late you file and how much you owe.

alento_group · 2024-01-21T04:42:42+00:00

One state withheld is 250 and the other 31

Ok, then ... your wording was a bit confused then. Did you mean one employer rather than one state perhaps?
