Question: Where do I find my taxable interest on my W-2?

I'm trying to do my taxes by myself and it says to put in my taxable interest on line 2, but I don't know what my taxable interest is. Is it in box 2 of my W-2?

Answer: It's not on your W-2.

It would be on a 1099-INT sent to you from your bank.

Question: Is there restriction by IRS on number of capital gain transactions (reported in 1099B) for Efiling my reurn?

I have got to include about 1700 capital gain/loss transactions as reported by my broker in 1099-B. I used TaxCut software (H&R Block product) to prepare my individual return. But when I wanted to Efile the return there is a message that since I have got more than 250 entries of capital gain transactions, I am not eligible to efile. Instead I have to send a paper return. TaxCur people do not answer properly my question whether it is an IRS restriction not to accept efile with more than 250 CG entries or it is a TaxCut software limitation. Can somebody guide me whether I can efile with any amount of 1099-B entries? If IRS restricts the number of transactions for efile, Then I have a big problem of printing several pages of Schedule - D which costs a lot to print and send. Please send your valuable help in this matter.

Answer: I've seen successful examples of individuals who net their short and long term activity from a broker and enter it as an individual line item on schedule D.

This might not be in exact compliance with the IRS, but submits the proper information.

Question: Filing a complaint against my employer in CA?

I am working with an employer (a famous employer) through an employment agency. We are grossly underpaid with no incentives to stay (no chance of getting a promotion, let alone a raise....what you see is what you get......) and have to put up with petty/juvenile rules (which does not apply to me, but I feel for the people that work there). Honestly, I would like to shut our department down (I don't have a chance to shut the employer down since they are so well represented!). What route can I take? I am in Northern CA. Obviously, I would like to wait until I get a new job first, then file the complaint.

Thanks all.
just checking out the comments.......I appreciate all your replies. For the record, I do not think I am better than anyone (I understand it is hard to decipher since we are communicating online).
As everyone, I just want what is best for myself.

Thanks again!

Answer: If you really want to pursue this, start by reading the California Labor Code to see if they are volating any labor laws.

You then contact the EDD (search for them on Google. It will give you the homepage) and follow the links.

If you decide you need an attorney, contact the local BARR association and they will give you a referral to someone who specializes in labor law in your area.

Good Luck
