TRUE CONFESSIONS OF TURBO TAX

Is at least two thirds of your income
from farming or fishing?

I had a bank, broker,
or other financial account
in a foreign country.
I signed on,
or had other authority over,
a bank, broker,
or other financial account
in a foreign country.
All my foreign accounts
were with a U.S. military
banking facility
operated by
a U.S. financial institution.
In 2010, did you:
-Work in Yonkers?
-Have an apartment
or other living quarters
in Yonkers?

If so, we'll need to ask you
some additional questions.

I received a distribution or a loan
from a foreign trust.
I was a beneficiary of more than 50%
of the assets of a foreign trust.
I was the grantor of a foreign trust.
I was the transferor to a foreign trust.
Do any of the above situations apply to you?

None of the above.
None of the above.
None of the above.

I clicked buttons that said

DONE WITH NEW JERSEY

DONE WITH NEW YORK
