Can the IRS Seize or Garnish a Veteran's Disability Check?
It seems almost unthinkable that a federal agency would come after a soldier who had fought and been wounded for his country, but even wounded soldiers are still taxpayers. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has the legal right to collect from anyone in arrears, and that includes disabled veterans. It is no wonder why so many americans live in fear of the IRS.
What is VA Disability Compensation?
Any military veteran injured in the line of duty may qualify for disability benefits. Compensation is based on the extent of the injuries or diseases and the number of dependents of the disabled soldier. While the benefits are tax-free, they are not exempt from tax garnishment if you owe back taxes. The IRS can withhold up to fifteen percent of monthly benefits.
As you might imagine, most disabled veterans rely on these payments. Since many of them are unable to work, disability compensation may be their only steady source of income. If they have a family, monthly checks may be their only way to put food on the table. But the IRS doesn't care about all that.
No matter how may medals he may have, if a veteran owes back taxes to the IRS, the IRS still sees him as a tax debtor. And because they are the ones writing his checks, the Treasury Department will simply send him less if he has an IRS debt. The process is known as an IRS levy, which most commonly refers to bank account levies or wage garnishment, but also extends to levying benefits.
Types of wage garnishment
Most Americans mistakenly assume that the IRS only goes after working people who owe them back taxes. After all, they do call it wage garnishment. But the truth is that the feared federal agency can go after benefits and payments that are sent to disabled and/or retired individuals. The IRS can execute a tax levy on social security, social security disability, and VA compensation disability benefits.
Combat IRS Levy Today!
Millions of Americans owe back taxes to the IRS. Some of them are swindlers, but most are good folks who cannot afford to pay their debt. Since they cannot work, many disabled veterans have no way to pay. But instead of forgiving these tax debts and rewarding their service, the IRS withholds the benefits most injured soldiers need to survive.
Do not be fooled by internet hucksters who say they can eliminate your IRS tax debt or solve your tax problems in the blink of an eye. This is seldom the case, and no experienced tax professional would claim otherwise. One option for a disabled veteran who wants to put an end to wage garnishment is to contact a qualified tax advisor.
By law, the IRS cannot garnish or levy a taxpayer to the point of financial ruin. There are ways to pause the process. Every road to relief begins with compliance first. Only after you are in compliance can a tax advisor begin working to permanently establish a recovery plan to get you out of the tax crisis you are in.
Tax advisors will talk to you about how to fix the underlying tax problem, then speak to the IRS on your behalf and do their best to get a tax levy paused or reduced. More often than not, they will try to negotiate a payment plan that includes monthly installments that may be smaller than the amount that is being withheld from your disability benefits. Tax advisors can also help you complete and submit unfiled tax returns.

Being A Construction Worker - The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
I was a construction worker in the southern California area for almost 20 years. During that time, I worked as a fire sprinkler fitter through a local union based out of Whittier. I designed, installed, and repaired automatic fire sprinkler systems in homes, restaurants, high-rises, and warehouses all over the Los Angeles area.
At the time, the money was fantastic. But the money came with its own price, and I soon realized there were both positive and negative aspects of working as a construction worker. If you or someone you know is considering a career in the construction industry, be sure you know what you're getting into!
The Good: As a construction worker, you are going to get paid extremely well. This is especially true if you join a local union and graduate from their apprenticeship program. Union workers are always the top paid construction workers when directly compared with their non-union counterparts.
Another perq is your are going to get off work relatively early compared to traditional office-based careers. You can expect to be on the freeway heading home anywhere from 1 pm to 2:30 pm every day. For Los Angeles residents, this is perfect because you can avoid the evening traffic and you can get home relatively quickly no matter where you live in southern California.
Another benefit (and this depends on your personal style) is you don't have to wear a suit and tie to work. You are going to get dirty every day, so you will need to wear rugged clothing and construction boots, and there's no need for gel and stylish hairdos; a Dodgers ball cap is completely acceptable every day of the week!
The Bad: It's true, you do leave work exceptionally early every day as a construction worker. On the flip side, it means you are getting up extra early every day, anywhere between 3:30 am and 5:30am.
After the Northridge earthquake destroyed most of the Northridge Mall in 1994, I was assigned the position of superintendent for the fire protection installation. My day would begin at 3:15am and I would get home around 7:00pm each day. I followed that schedule for nine months straight until the mall was finally reopened to the public.
The Ugly: Construction sites are dangerous. I've personally witnessed men stepping through an unseen hole on a roof and falling twenty feet to a concrete slab below. I've watched men get their fingers caught in machinery and almost ripped off. I've sliced open my own skin dozens of times. I've had to drive myself to an emergency room twice.
My worst accident was a torn shoulder that landed me in a hospital room and eventually the surgery room. Blood is common on a construction site, especially the big ones when there are several hundred men working. After my shoulder surgery, I knew I didn't want to work in the construction industry. I figured if I worked in the industry for 30 or 40 years, I might retire with a great pension but I would probably need a wheel chair to get around, and that wasn't for me.
The Great: There are some aspects of construction that are absolutely fantastic. What I enjoyed most was seeing new buildings and meeting new people every day of week.
I've worked in all of the major film studios, and been able to work on some great film sets, such as Dracula and Hook. I've also got to shake hands with some of Hollywood's most notable celebrities: Daryl Hannah, Billy Crystal, Keanu Reeves, and even Tom Cruise. I've brushed shoulders with countless others.
I've also worked extensively in all the major theme parks around Los Angeles: Six Flags, Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, and Universal Studios. It's definitely fun seeing the working side of the entertainment industry!
As you can see, there are a lot of benefits to being a construction worker, and just as many negative aspects. For me, the bad didn't out-weigh the good, and I quit the industry after almost 20 years of dedicated work. It wasn't all bad though; I certainly acquired a lot of great memories!

Bringing Back Discouraged Workers in the Labor Market
In psychology, one's desire to pursue passion and interest is affected by the presence of opportunities. In the corporate field, oftentimes those who get their desired work at the earlier period of job hunting are most likely to follow their career path. On the other hand, those who wait for a period of time have a tendency look for other options apart from their chosen field. On a macroeconomic perspective, the labor market also faces the same dilemma.
Nowadays, the local workforce is flooded with "discouraged" workers. Technically, discouraged workers are people who have the capacity, skill, and educational credentials to acquire employment in various industries, but lack the desire to pursue employment.
There are several factors that cause discouragement. The inability to find employment after applying in various companies is one of the causes for discouraged workers. Rejection pulls down one's self-esteem and confidence. The feeling of rejection after being turned down in job interviews smudges hopes for future occupations. Consequently, fear of rejection hinders attempts for employment.
Mismatched skills to company qualifications also lead to discouragement. There are instances when a person wants to fill in the position in a company vacancy, but lacks the required educational degree. For instance, advertising agencies require applicants and workers (compensation claim management in this industry is low) in their creative team to have a degree in communications for the development of media campaigns. Labor agencies in some countries issue a list of high-demand jobs to colleges and universities to remedy discouragement brought by skill mismatch.
In Western countries, racial discrimination may have already been a passé, but this is one of the factors that discourage workers from searching for employment. In the 1920's, discrimination against Black American workers (compensation claims management between Black and White americans also vary) became very rampant. This discouraged many skilled Blacks to search for a viable employment. Nevertheless, this issue has already been solved by labor policies supporting Affirmative Action.
The present breakdown of the labor market in the United States, Canada and Australia can be remedied if discouraged workers (compensation claims management is also an issue for workers) will be brought back in the work arena. Governments in these countries are already creating policies to lessen employment discouragement.

Nissan Juke New York Customers Learn Juke Wins Top Safety Pick for 2011
Nissan Juke New York Customers Learn Juke Wins Top Safety Pick for 2011
Koeppel Nissan offers one of the safest small vehicles for 2011 to customers
JACKSON HEIGHTS, N.Y. – Nissan Juke New York dealership Koeppel Nissan is announcing the Juke is one of six vehicles to be awarded the "Top Safety Pick" by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
The vehicles being judged were evaluated for safety, and in contrast to 2006, the majority of the safest vehicles on the market now belong to smaller cars in 2011. The Nissan Juke performed better than many other larger vehicles in the crash tests, and coupled with superior gas mileage, customers are shifting toward smaller cars due to soaring gas prices.
"Customers are looking for more fuel-efficient vehicles, but they're also looking for a high-level of safety as well," said Ami Ferrera, Marketing Director for Koeppel Auto Group. "The 2011 Nissan Juke offers our customers both, and at an affordable price."
In the past, small cars did not have many safety features included, but now all come with side airbags as standard features and many come with electronic stability control. Also helping with safety is the added strength to the steel frames of small cars, making frontal impacts less of a worry. Nissan Juke New York vehicles at Koeppel Nissan offers all of the above, and customers can be assured that their vehicle will protect them.
Among the vehicles tested, the 2011 Nissan Juke is one of the few to get great scores on all four of the crash tests and achieve 34 mpg on the highway and 30 mpg in the city.
Nissan Juke New York shoppers will be pleased to know the Juke may be available at Koeppel Nissan for as low as $19,340. Customers can take advantage of this great offer by visiting the dealership and speaking with the staff to get the best information about the Juke and to hear how to vehicle best suits them.
Koeppel Nissan's "Giant Memorial Day Tent Event" is also kicking off this weekend. And if fans of the dealership simply "Like" Koeppel Nissan on Facebook, they'll be eligible to win a free iPad. With the deadline for the contest being May 31, a winner will be selected at the conclusion of the Memorial Day Tent Event.
Koeppel Nissan has had an established relationship with the local business community for over 75 years and has been a member of the Better Business Bureau since 1983, so customers who visit the dealership and are looking to purchase a vehicle can be sure that their experience will not be stressful or negative.
For more information about the Queens Business Expo and Breakfast, visit http://www.koeppelnissan.com or call 866-GO-NISSAN.
Koeppel Nissan is a proud member of Koeppel Auto Group, "Where Customer Satisfaction is Standard Equipment." Koeppel Auto Group has been serving New Yorkers for over 75 years with some of the most respected brands in the industry. Koeppel Auto Group has 10 convenient locations on Northern Boulevard in Long Island City, N.Y.
Koeppel Nissan is conveniently located at 74-15 Northern Blvd., in Jackson Heights, N.Y. 11372.

Construction Worker Jobs - Myths about Working in Construction Jobs
What is the first picture that comes to your mind when you think of the construction worker? Invariably, it is an image of a rugged man with tools, strong hands, wearing a helmet and perched precariously on top of a high rise being constructed! Yes, the construction worker has been stereotyped a lot, but is it all that a construction worker does or can do? There are some myths to be busted about construction worker jobs and getting one.
• Most of the construction workers are prone to grievous injuries: Not always does a construction worker sit at the top of a skyscraper busy bolting and welding joints. Yes, they do but today the safety aspect has gone up tremendously. At least some claim the job to be better than sitting at the computer and spoiling your eyesight in the bargain! Debates apart, if all safety measures are followed, there is little chance that the construction worker is exposed to a dangerous situation at all!
• Worker exploitation is more: With the amount of physical labor going in, one might very well think that construction workers are an exploited workforce. Maybe some decades back, the fear was obvious but not now since the concept of trade and labor unions came into effect. That is one thing that employers detest but they have to because every worker has rights and that has to be respected. If you consider worker exploitation, it is the other way round with IT jobs exploiting workers more than physical laborers – at least a recent survey says so!
• It is not fit for the fairer sex: Maybe the fairer sex cannot contribute by holding the liquid concrete pipe, but they can sometimes be an asset to the organization by giving important inputs on the design and simulation front!
• A cubicle job is any day better than an on-site job: Not if you consider the lifestyle problems that come with a cubicle job. At least, the workers don't complain of drug abuse, extended working hours, too much job pressure, obesity and other similar diseases.
• You don't need much education to enter a construction job: This is completely baseless. As much as a software market requires a Masters candidate, so does the construction job. In fact sometimes more because there you're not working on simulations but real brick and mortar! And a little mistake can pull down a whole building!
• Construction jobs offer the least security: Developing countries are further creating more jobs than ever, owing to their need for infrastructure development. Construction jobs are at an all time high and there is a huge need for manpower in this field quite contrary to what many think. Work might not go on forever at construction site but that does not mean that with a project completion, the termination of a worker is obvious. In fact, if you're with a firm, you can continue to work at places where the firm has been awarded contracts.
