All my cargo pants are Old Navy men's. I like the schlumpy fit.

Man. Lately I have no sense of scale when it comes to problems. Everything seems equally as horrible and and enormous, and rational thought isn't at all helping. Like, I got an email from sears with the delivery date for my appliances, and I have to call to reschedule the date, and that seems like, "OH GOD HUGE PROBLEM NO ENERGY CANT DEAL." Ridic.

Completely unrelated, my therapist had this awesome nugget: You know, part of the problem is that you're actually too smart for your job.

Which I of course took as a platitude because that's what I do.

Sox, I'm not even done reading the article yet. I have more clicking to do, and more googling and wikipediaing.

see. this is reading. old-school. What I did? speedy x 2 passes, with a couple of click throughs and a few 'ooh pretty's plus a thought or two about what bolero would be like as a villainelle. interspersed with getting juice, taking temperatures, and being generally snotted all over by cra-N-ky toddler. this last must be done with soon or I am running away to mexico.

Why aren't women allowed to have cargo pants anymore?

Because of this?

Box 14 is just informational so I think you still need to file a Schedule D and just ignore Box 14 on your W-2. Now do you have an entry in box 12 of your W-2 for code 'V'?

I called LA City's Finance helpline, and they said that yes, this appeared to be an error, and it sometimes happens. They said to attach a copy of my business license and supporting documentation that I paid my taxes and am in good standing. So I did that, checked the box for an immediate hearing.

I pulled copies of my tax returns for the last three years, made copies of all documents related to my license, including the canceled check, and mailed the form back with the documentation attached, circling and notating each error on the form they sent.

GO YOU! Bury them in paperwork!

Hoping for quick resolution.

Me too!

Oooh. Hm, I see what you are saying. But that doesn't seem to work out since the number that shows up on my W-2 is the gain, not the income of the options. And none of the programs asks me about the income of the options. That is, there's nothing different about the way any of them asks me, so I don't see what HRBlock is doing that's making the tax so much lower. Is the income of the options really income if I technically paid for them myself by selling the stock?

I can only guess, so you shouldn't use my guess as a basis for filing your return. But my guess is that the cost of the options is included in your wages/salaries/tips income box. You should be taxed on the cost basis at some point, but not twice -- i.e., not at grant AND sale, but one or the other.

I should explain, code 'V' in Box 12 is income from exercise of nonstatutory stock options and is included in your reported W-2 income. If it isn't reported in box 12 code 'V', then your stock option income probably isn't included in your W-2 income and you may be off to Schedule D, but I don't know for certain.

I'm not an expert by any means, but I know about that box 12 from past experience.
