Also, I plan on rooming with a friend, so how do I notify the government of my address change?
theres taxes on your paycheck (federal income, state income, state disability, social security) Theres property tax if you own a house. Your income taxes are usually paid for you everytime you get a pay check, if there not youll have to do withholdings or do it at the end of the year. Property tax is twice a year or you can have it compounded monthly or whatever. Theres taxes on almost everything sales tax... Plus tax day is the last day to do your taxes you can do them way before if you like. You notify the govnerment when you do your taxes

In business, my expenses are offset against tax owed to HMCE, if my expenses are more then the tax owed?

2010-07-15T18:47:00.010-07:00

what happens to the remaining expenses?
Your expenses are not offset against tax.

Assuming you are self-employed (ie not a ltd company) the basic procedure is that your taxable profit is your total income (ie sales) less your allowable expenses (eg the cost of buying stock, wages, rent, utilities etc) less capital allowances (ie the fraction of the cost of capital purchases that you are allowed to deduct for the year).

If your expense and capital allowances come to more than your income, the

Advertise on your vehicle, (for example) and have plenty of business cards available at places where pests can affect their businesses. Also, large apartment buildings: go to the superintendent and offer something free, like an inspection, or additional service like a spray that they can use in the meantime.

Will my loan get turned down?

2010-07-15T18:46:00.012-07:00

I am wanting to get an auto loan to get a truck so I can safely transport my son during the winter. Im looking at a 03 dodge 1500 manual costing around $13,000.

This summer/fall I am going to be working grain harvest, potato harvest, and possibly beet harvest until I start working at the hospital full time which is going to be a career.

However for a month during the grain harvest I will not receive an income because I am paying off a debt to a family member.

I have the consistent income and hefty saving, more than enough to make the truck payments, insurance, repairs and fuel but is there a good possibility the bank will turn down my loan because of the month I will not be getting an income?

Do I need to tell them about repaying the debt?

Any suggestions?
It is going to depend on the lender. I hate to give a vague answer like that, but different lenders have different risk parameters.

It gets prorated. If, for example, you start working halfway through the pay period, you get paid for the remaining half of the pay period.
You will be paid for the time worked, so no. You will be paid for one week if it is a two week pay period you are in the middle of.
No. Your salary will be pro-rated. If your pay period is 20 days long, and you start on the 11th day, you will get 50% of your normal salary.%0D%0A

What are some good antiques to invest in ?

2010-07-05T20:35:00.033-07:00

European antique furniture goes up in value and when needed repair does not devalue. Though restoration takes a pretty penny it is worth it. American antiques holds a higher value than that of European as it is more rare to find. however, altering the current state of american antiques devalues the piece. All restoration must be done by a profesional. No power tools or spray should be applied. To keep the piece original you must repair the furniture the way it was made. Often times the restorer will use period tools. All hand made. Hand made nails and etc...

Antique furniture is expensive, but it is gorgeous and worth the money.

however in this U.S. economy you will find that antiques are going up in price because the demand is so low.

only a handful of people really and truely know this business and it goes much deeper than what I have explained.

RATINGS. The high the shows ratings, the more expensive the commercial. Have you notices brand names appear in the actual program more these days? It costs less to buy product placement IN the show than to buy a commercial fewer people will view.

Can anyone help me make a resume?I

2010-07-05T20:35:00.026-07:00

A resume is a concise summary of all the information about us: education, work experience, achievements and other personal details, that will interest an employer. Although our prospective employer will read our cover letter before our resume, the letter will just highlight a few of the many facts that we include in a well-organized resume.

There is a fairly standard form for detailing information about ourselves, and employers expect us to submit it in a recognizable way. The following sections discuss the possible content and manner of presentation for our resume.

1. Heading. Resumes are usually headed with our name, address and telephone number. This information may either be centered at the top of the page or placed in the top left-hand corner.

2. Career Goal. Our career goal, which follows our personal identification, is one entry that every employer is interested in. We must be specific as we can, listing our immediate goal and not some vague future dream.

3. Job Position Being Applied For. We must specify the position we are applying for. Examples: systems analyst, account executive, securities analyst, etc. This position must be related to our career goal.

4. Education and Training. This major section should state the most important qualifications we can offer for the job we are applying for. If it is work experience, that section should come next. If it is our educational background that is more important, place it first.

In either case, we must tailor our qualifications to fit the job requirements. This does not mean, however, that we are to falsify the information we provide. It simply means that we are to pick out those qualifications that have the most direct relationship to the job for which we are applying. For example, suppose we are applying for the position of market researcher. The person who reads our resume will not be interested in finding out that we had taken courses in baking, orchid raising or canteen operation. They will not also be interested in learning that we have worked as a teller in a bank. But this person will be interested in reading about our experience in research, or if our educational background is in mathematics, statistics, etc, and if we had taken a speed-reading course.

The most common way to describe our education is to list any university, college, or vocational school we have attended with the dates of attendance and any diplomas or certificates we have obtained. We always place our most recent educational experience at the top of the list and work back from there.

If we want to stress our education, we may want to include our major field of study and the names of significant courses, which we have completed. We may also want to list any honors or awards we have received.

A prospective employer is looking for evidence of leadership potential, social poise, and interest in a broad enough range of activities to make us an interesting person. Therefore, we could list our extra-curricular activities in which we had taken part and list down the positions we held in campus or school organizations.

5. Work Experience. There are two acceptable ways of presenting our work background. The most common is to list our jobs in chronological order, with the present or the most recent one heading the list. With such an arrangement, the prospective employer can readily detect our progress or promotions. If we use this format, we should show the following:

a. Position held

b. Name and location of company

c. Date the position was held

d. Achievement in the position

e. Reason for leaving

In addition, we can strengthen our presentation by including the following:

a. Duties (emphasize responsibilities)

b. Name of immediate superior (if the person is still there and might be a good reference)

c. Job title (e.g. systems analyst, field sales manager, etc.)

If on the other hand, our experience is scattered, or we have done a lot of

Volunteer activities, or if our employment history is spotty; a functional resume can turn unrelated activities into a coherent business background. When we use this format, our experience is listed under descriptive categories. In this way, a wide variety of activities--paid or volunteer-- interspersed with inactive periods, can be presented to our advantage.

6. Personal Details. Personal data include gender, age, date and place of birth, race, religion (optional), marital status (including number of children), health, height, weight, interests and hobbies.

7. References. Applicants for a job are usually requested to give the names of at least three persons who can be asked or called to speak about us. The most appropriate persons include present or former employers, teachers, and other professionals. Also acceptable is a character reference whose name or occupation is respected.

If we include references in our resume, we must give each individual
