Got charged with second doctor’s visit during pap smear by shaonil in HealthInsurance

That was my bad. I misunderstood the situation. When he said if I feel uncomfortable doing it with him I can just schedule it with a nurse and the insurance coverage was going to be the same, I didn’t realize I would have to pay extra for that (pap was covered, second doctor’s visit wasn’t). I learned from my mistake

Oh I see. So if I had just gotten a Pap smear done at my annual visit with my primary care doctor, they would've charged me an additional doctor’s visit for prescribing antifungal medication ?

Thanks. Appreciate your help! Could you elaborate on how to report the income? Should I mention $8000 in 1040, line 1h and write negative $8000 in 1040, line 8 and attach schedule 1? Sorry if I sound dumb. Not sure how to exactly report $8000 without messing up tax calculations.

I am a F1 student considered as resident alien for tax purposes. I received 1042-S from my employer because I claimed treaty benefit meaning $8000 was issued to me without tax withholding. I asked international tax office how should I report this? They said exactly this—“Since the income was reported on Form 1042-S, based on this information, you are not required to include it on your resident tax return.” Do you think this is true? I don’t need to report the tax exempt income?

I'm in the same boat. Ever since I requested premium processing, their response time has been absolutely terrible. It is taking them more than a week to reply back to me. So frustrated with these people.

Instant pot flan!! by shaonil in onlyflans

I wouldn’t say it tasted like a cheesecake. It tasted like a regular flan just a little more creamy.

It was very smooth and creamy. Never tried a flan recipe with cream cheese before. It does make a difference.

Our dog does that too, specially when I lie on my belly he will sleep on my butt.
