I am single and claim zero deductions. I have four W-2s this year and one 1099-MISC from being a contractor doing EMS education for a hospital (made a couple thousand over the year, nothing big). I owe over 2500. W.T.F.I (tried to) do my taxes yesterday...Normally I've always just done Turbo Tax (or Credit Karma's free version last year) cuz normally its just input a W2 or 2 and done.....however with the move across state lines (and the little bit of Ubering I expiremented with last year) I decided to visit H&R Block....and lets just say I didn't know what I didn't know and had to make a follow on appointment to come back with documents and stuff I had never heard of lol (fun fact, Uber may not be such a great side gig when the tax lady told me they don't take taxes out of your earnings....you have to manually pay those yourself, which of course, just like the scummiest dialysis taxis running around LA, they don't tell you any of that, so there's a chance instead of a refund I might have to pay the IRS....lovely. I'd rather go back to school and sit through a full State EMT course again and get a part time AMR job vs paying to do Uber ha
Get married AND have a kid. That is what I had to do to get a return.I am single and claim zero deductions. I have four W-2s this year and one 1099-MISC from being a contractor doing EMS education for a hospital (made a couple thousand over the year, nothing big). I owe over 2500. W.T.F.
I'm REALLY hoping that's not the boat I find myself in... I am (was?) counting on that refund to help pay some bills, can't afford another tax bill on top of that! Fortunately the Ubering was only a month or so, plus the tax lady said I can deduct my moving expenses cuz it was specifically for a job, so that should help my case lol (hopefully...fingers crossed, knocks on wood. ..)I am single and claim zero deductions.

Yea, I was prepared to pay for the 1099 stuff, but that accounts for less than half of what I owe. I was not prepared to owe on W-2 jobs since I claim zero on everything. But as you say (and I forgot I guess), different rates for different incomes, not just one.Do you have 4 W2's from one full-time job, and a few part-time jobs? Or did you change jobs during the year? Anytime you have multiple jobs (multiple W2's) anything other than your full-time employment will not be taxes at the needed rate to avoid having to pay taxes. Thats because part-time employment is taxed at a lower rate due to making less income. ANY 1099 work is also not helping you, as NO taxes are withheld, and you must account for this...... So thats why you owe 2500 dollars......
The way to avoid this, as a single person, with likely not enough deductions to itemize/make it worth the effort is to claim 0 both federal and state (if you pay state income tax) AND put in additional money (depending on what your yearly income is), say 10 dollars to federal additional and 10 dollars to state at all jobs if you can afford it, but certainly the part-time/lower income jobs for sure. If you are tight on funds leave your full-time job at just 0 exemptions, and claim 0 and put in additional at your other jobs. That will get you a refund/make sure you don't owe next year.
Any investment professional or tax man will tell you the GOAL is to break even each year and not give the government an interest free loan. That sounds all well and good but for people working schedules like we do, and making the kinda money we do (likely to be working part-time additional etc) it's difficult to balance. I would rather pay in extra and get a mini savings account back at the end of the year, then run the risk of owing and being caught off guard.

So preceptors...what are things y'all find particularly beneficial to do with students? Going to be cleared for medic students here soon. I remember my preceptors that stood out and why they were great, but want to get some ideas of things I may not remember as well. I want to ensure they are quality shifts and add some ideas to what I remember standing out the most.
I am, but I am also seeking the opinions of y'all because I know most members here value education. I already get students, just not medic students.Take a preceptor class. No way a new medic should have students without one.

There was never any way for me to frame a day. Day one was usually me feeling out the intern as a person. All of them had different goals, personalities, and training styles.How y'all like to the frame the day as a whole though, that's what I am interested in. I've already got ways I like to do things, even with helping people learn, but I am always trying to find out how I can do them better.
