wacky1980 Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 so i'm like 2 days late getting this shit done, but idgaf. we lost our accountant for the corporation that owns our bars, back in the start of covid. i've been completely on my own in handling payroll and wage reporting. needless to say, there was a bit of a learning curve to overcome. last week i was trying to get shit wrapped up so i could cut everyone their w-2 forms, and i realized our old accountant had fucked up A LOT of old filings. so i've spent the last week figuring out exactly what she borked, then filing amended 941 returns for every.fucking.quarter of 2020. this morning, i got all of the penalties and shortages figured out, finished up the federal unemployment filing, and cut every last god damn one of those w-2 forms. and i even submitted our w-3 up to ssa. payroll 2020 is FUCKING DONE and now i need a cocktail to celebrate. next on the list: corporate income tax return. this one might be a tad over my head... 6 1

Whatever cheers mate. on behalf of the person responsible for getting you that last w-2, your patience is warmly appreciated...even if they should have been done with it last week. i'm sure they aren't being a dick on purpose. 1

Meh I'm wondering if the W2 I'm waiting for is really worth it honestly. It's the one from the temp agency I worked for after my other civ job laid me off from seasonal work even though they wanted to hire all the seasonal peeps, but turned around and said they couldn't give out the hours.. 2020 was a real bullshit year for me, and I probably still need to put in a lot of effort to turn the shit around.

PhilosipherStoned Posted February 2, 2021 Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) Yeah I know man.. I just don't really know about temp agencies except all that you just said.. Like do I need to be a stickler and when...but don't worry I will probably be a stickler pretty soon if that w2/1099 doesn't turn up...I'm pretty sure I checked to have taxes taken out if I needed to, but fuck if I remember..🙄 Edited February 2, 2021 by PhilosipherStoned 1
Doom Metal Alchemist Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Sounds like it was almost (if not completely) a good thing your accountant up and left if they screwed up so much shit. 1

tsar4 Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Borked - haven't heard that phrase in a while. Cleaning up after someone, particularly if they checked out long before leaving, is always so much fun. Good on you for fighting through it for others! 1

PhilosipherStoned Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 So apparently I could've had my taxes done already as well. I called the temp agency, and they said they have them there, and I have to come sign for it. Of course I should've expected that from a temp agency, but come on... Can't even mail the shit in the middle of a pandemic?
PhilosipherStoned Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) Also I about shit myself when I opened this national guard w2...Then I remembered my main w2 I have to get from a 'secure' govt website, but big fed apparently just mailed my NG deployment earnings on a seperate w2. One more w2 to add to the pile of tax paperwork here........... edit: It says Texas military department on it so it being fed wasn't the reason I just flip flopped that.. Apparently my state paid for that whole waste of tax dollars/ military budget exercise. (riot response) Don't blame me I just did my job. My unit didn't end up assisting police anywhere here anyway, we were just on standby, and had to fucking convoy military vehicles all over ther damn state.
