How a widow should handle collection calls on late husband's 'debt'
My father died 4 1/2 years ago and had no debt at that time. My mother survives and is very frugal. She is getting collection calls that my father owes $33,000. At 83, this confuses and upsets her because we know the claim is false. How can I tell if someone stole my father's identity? And what can I do about it?
What types of income are protected from wage garnishment?
I am 61 and live on my retirement/disability from the California State Teachers' Retirement System. I receive about $1,800 per month.
I had a heart attack in November 2009 and just received a bill from the ambulance company for $1,500. I was told that unless I make payments of $100 per month (I cannot), it will go to collections.
I filed for bankruptcy in 2008 due to debts from a divorce. My daughter, a full-time student, lives with me. I am terrified that any amount can be deducted from my income.
Are retirement accounts considered when proving insolvency?
When I'm trying to prove insolvancy so I can settle my debts, are retirement savings, such as 401(k) considered assets?
Thank you

Should we pay off our mortgage early?
My husband and I are 42 and 44 respectively. My husband wants to pay off our morgage early. We'll probably be paid off in about 6 years at the rate we're going. However, my dad says this is a bad thing because it will hurt us tax-wise. Who is right?

Exercise caution when selling jewelry to pay down debt
What is the best way to sell loose jewels? We have three emerald stones that we would like to sell.
Can I elect to have my employer not withhold taxes from my check?
I am full time employed and they take taxes out of my check which is fine. BUT I am doing some part-time work on the side for them which they pay seperately. I do not want them to withhold taxes for that because is it a small amount and I would practically not get anything for the days work.
My husband and I file the long form and we know we will be getting money back this year.
Can I legally ask them not to withhold money from this side payment check?
Thanks so much for your reply

Divorced and trying to set up shop again
Will cashing in retirement funds help my credit score?
Paid as an independent contractor; what about my taxes?
How do I know what to file on my taxes?
I am a single female, no children, who lives and works in New York City. My boss writes me a check for $1000 biweekly, so I assume he is paying me as an Independent Contractor. Should I be setting aside a certain percentage of that money each month to cover taxes when I file in April? I do not want to come up short, but I am barely covering my expenses now. Would I even owe taxes because my income is so low?
How do I know what to file as? In the past, I was a student and always filed exempt. Would I file as Single with 2 exemptions (1--because no one else can claim me; 1--because I am single with one job)? I cover all my own expenses including rent; should I also file as Head of Household?
What about if I get a second part time job in the future that pays $300 a week? How do I report this? Do I need to report this? I heard that if you make under $600 total at any job, you are not required to claim it.
I know there are a lot of questions here but I must take charge of where my money goes. Any help will be much appreciated.
