A few years back I wrote about filing an injured spouse IRS 8379 and receive a massive response from people all over the word. There is a problem when you get your tax return and realize that it is not what you were expecting because of your spouse’s past debt obligations. Or maybe you didn’t receive a tax return at all. There is a solution to being married and still receiving your part of the money. Often times, in community property states your spouse may not even worked all year but you filed together one can still possibly receive their portion of the tax rebate when one files the injured spouse form.
This year the IRS really was backed up in processing injured spouse forms. You can complete you injured spouse form with your tax return or you can send it in after the fact. I would like to share one major deal that happen this year with someone I know in processing an injured spouse form with an amended return. By all means if you are a first timer, you can ignore what “where’s my refund” says because once the IRS actually starts to process the return the site will not be updated with any refund information.

I have heard through people and through cyberspace that Apple will release their iPads in January 2012 but, catch the key words “heard”. I have also heard that it would be in March of 2012. Another key “iPads”….with an “s”. Will it be the iPad 3 or will it really be more than one? Hmmmmmmm (more…)
It is very heart aching when you feel like you are going to get a tax refund only to see that your refund has been offset. There is a number you can call to see if anything has been reported against your security number before you file. Such as child support, defaulted student loans, states and federal unemployment debts and etc.
It is very heart aching to find out that something happen to your refund. Especially when you do not know who the money went to. You should receive a notice explaining what happen. You can always contact FMS at 800-304-3107 or TDD 866-297-0517. If you filed a joint return and you’re not responsible for the debt, but you are entitled to a portion of the refund you may request your portion of the refund by filing form 8379. Learn more about refund offset by visiting the IRS here.

This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.
Walgreens have invested a lot to be the Nation’s #1 pharmacy. They are the largest drugstore chain in the nation. When it comes to providing the absolute best services, they are #1. When it comes to genuinely caring for customers and the toll that healthcare reform it taking on consumers, it’s Walgreens!
In most recent news Walgreens has negotiated with Express Script a new contract to continue in it’s in-pharmacy provider. These recent attempts have failed and Walgreens is no longer apart of Express Scripts’ pharmacy provider network as of January 1, 2012. This was not an easy hit for Walgreens because they sincerely care about customers and want to provide them with the most cost effective prescription plans to benefit consumers. The act of Express Script has not specific benefit to the patients or their health plan.
One issue that is evident is that Express Script may suffer from the lost of Walgreens, because the #1 pharmacy offer the most competitive prices with prescription drugs. Walgreens refuses to disappoint patients and have implement their own prescription saving plan. In their effort to minimize their disruption and inconvenience, Walgreens is proactive in making the transition as smooth as possible. They are doing all they can to keep their customers coming back for savings in the long run.
Despite the many disappoints of healthcare reform, Walgreens care to see consumer to continue to save money. Walgreens is offering a special discount on annual membership for its Prescription Saving Club. An individual can join during a special January promotion for only $5, or $10 for a family membership, and receive savings on more than 8,000 brand name and all generic medications. More than 400 generics are available with a three-month supply for less than$1 a week. Regular annual membership is $20 for an individual and $35 for a family.
I will encourage each one to go and benefit from the Walgreens Prescription Savings Club. You can Follow Walgreens on Twitter and Walgreens on Facebook to keep up with how they are helping consumers and how to keep you saving money on prescription drugs.
I want you to share you thoughts! Do you use Express Scripts? Whose your pharmacy of choice? Will you take advantage of benefits of having a lost cost prescription plan for only $5 a month for an individual and $10 for a family member for the month of January? Share your thoughts and concerns.
As always Peace, Love & Stilettos!

I have been a college student for a while. I know first hand how expensive text books can cost. Going to school online is extremely expensive. It is best to go to a local college or university because it is more cost effective. If you are like me, getting your degree online is one of the most beneficial because of the convenience of working on your schedule. No matter what route you take textbooks are expensive!!
The number one headache of being able to start class is when you don’t have your textbook on time. If you are totally depending on financial aid, you know that your financial aid does not always come on day one. So, many times you are stuck! There are very few options when it comes to getting a textbooks at discounted or great prices. But, no one is promised a good-used text book!

MatchBooks does not only save you with your time but it also saves you with money. How does a FREE sound? Sounds good to me too! Let me give you a small example on how Matchbooks work for you.
Matchurbook.com starts with a high quality open-textbook and then matches it to the expensive book being used in a large intro course, like psychology. MatchBooks follows the same chapter order, covers the same topics per chapter, and include the same key term of the assigned textbook. This give you the “matchbook”. Remember the good part, it’s FREE!
So, If you are taking general Intro Psychology this spring semester; Your book will be “Psychology” Myers 9th Edition. Here is how MatchBook helps you… You can view the FREE MatchBook for Myers online without an expiration date and with out any fees or cost.
I “like” MatchBooks and I think it is an awesome idea to help college students all over the world with their studies. I think it is extraordinary how MatchBooks match your assigned textbook and this information contains all the information needed for introductory college courses.
I need you to go and “Like” the Flat World Knowledge on Facebook Let them know that we all appreciate the FREE services they are offering with matching textbooks. I also want to know what you think about this Free service? Please share your comments with us! Don’t forget to “like” the Flat World Knowledge on Facebook!
