Planning a 7 day trip to Quebec City next July

4 adult couples. Any suggestions on what to see and must do?
Just completed 1st of 3 rooms. Make sure concrete subfloor is clean and level. Take your time. As you lay each row make certain row it straight and locked in. Watch end connection and make sure there is no debris or dirt getting between ends.
You can request a PIN from the IRS online. IRS will issue a new PIN each year that will be required when you file your return. It will prevent someone from filing a fraudulent return under your number.

For $500 I would stick with current policy. What I did recently was look at the declaration and adjust my coverages. Contents was valued at 70% of dwelling . That was too high. I lowered contents, loss of use and raised deductible and ending up saving about $1,200.

I have one that is 12 years old. Last year I had to have it serviced and it runs fine. It’s the best mower I’ve ever had.
We had our soffit and facia painted with Benjamin Moore about 15 years ago and it still looks great! I was just commenting to myself last week how well it has held up. (Located in SE Louisiana)
re: The Hotel Bentley in Alexandria
Posted by CEB on 4/13/25 at 4:44 pm to La Place Mike
Was there for a wedding last year. We enjoyed our stay. Rooms were nice but nothing special. The Bentley Room restaurant in the basement was pretty good. We also enjoyed the Mirror Lounge in the basement. The Diamond Grill down the street was excellent. Downtown Alex is a ghost town once sunsets.
re: Have you ever donated a car?
Posted by CEB on 4/9/25 at 12:15 pm to AllDayEveryDay
See IRS Pub 526 and 561 for guidance on which charities you donate to and how to determine the FMV of the items. FMV is usually the value for your vehicle as a Private Sale on a site such as KBB or Edmunds. Keep in mind the standard deduction for MFJ is $14,600 so your total deductions must exceed that amount before any benefit.
We stayed a week in Maine last June. We have a VRBO cabin in Ellsworth about 1/2 hour drive north of Bar Harbor. Nice cabin on a lake. spent day and a half circling Acadia. If you wish to visit Cadillac Mtn you need to reserve a time with NPS. Lobster boat tour in Bar Harbor was interesting as was the NPS boat tour to Little Cranberry Island. took day drive up to Lubec/Canadian border town. Another day trip drove south from Bar Harbor to Camden, Rockland, Freeport.
In June temps were in low 70s with no humidity and falls into low 40s at night. Bring rain jackets.

re: Anyone got the dreaded yearly escrow letter yet?
Posted by CEB on 2/5/25 at 8:17 pm to fallguy_1978
Usually once you pay down to a certain loan to value and have satisfactory payment history they may cash out the escrow and allow you to pay taxes and insurance directly.
You may be able to login to the students page at SLU and download the 1098T
Standard deduction for MFJ is $29,200. School should provide a 1098T that reports qualified education expenses and scholarships received.

re: Bathroom vent heater not working
Posted by CEB on 12/13/24 at 4:11 pm to BilbeauTBaggins
That’s a Broan/Nutone. You can order a replacement heating unit. Remove cover and you unplug heater and a few screws.
You can make a direct payment on IRS website but make sure it is applied to 2024 tax tear. You must be specific what year you are paying.

re: Freedom Mortgage
Posted by CEB on 10/21/24 at 7:47 pm to Big Scrub TX
My mortgage was sold several years ago. I received a notice my flood insurance had lapsed for failure to pay premiums. I called the mortgage company and they had determined on their own since I was in a X zone they wouldn’t pay the premium. At the time Hurricane Ivan was barreling across the gulf. I paid the flood myself to re-instate coverage and due to my low LTV was able to cancel my escrow all together. I then assumed responsibility to pay taxes and insurance on my own,
