Voting Question: How long can I take for maternity leave?
(Mon, 01 Feb 2010 03:17:16 GMT)
Ok am 32 weeks pregnant with my third child, I live in the state of New Jersey and by law am entitled to 12 weeks which are parted as four weeks before due date and six weeks after, which are going to be paid to me by the Temporary Insurance Disability program of the state of New Jersey, but I just found out that you are also entitled to 12 weeks family leave in the state of New Jersey, have in mind this is not maternity leave is call family leave, So does anyone knows if i could take my maternity leave and after those 12 weeks are gone i could get another 12 weeks as family leave with pay?

Resolved Question: I'm 19, out of state, and have a toothache. What can I do considering my insurance ?
(Thu, 07 Jan 2010 17:24:04 GMT)
I'm a 19 year old male who lives at home with my family in central Florida. I guess you could say we are a low income family since both my parents are on disability. I currently have medicaid and my insurance is called StayWell. Right now I am temporarily staying with an Aunt in New Jersey and I have a very bad toothache in my molar. There is a visible abscess in my gum/jaw and I'm a bit worried. I'm not sure when I am returning home and I really need to take care of this ASAP because it hurts very bad. I'm pretty sure my insurance is only good in FL, so I don't know what i can do. I was thinking of going to the ER and see if they can just pull out my tooth, but I don't know if they can do that. So I'm not sure what my options are at this point... anyone know what I can do ??

Resolved Question: A couple of questions about withholding state taxes from paycheck?
(Wed, 02 Dec 2009 01:30:47 GMT)
Here are the questions- we live in New Jersey and my wife works in New York. Her company does not withhold New Jersey taxes and has told her that it is her responsibility to pay them at the end of the year. I know there are ways for me to pay her tax on a quarterly basis but I want to know how much money should I put aside for this on a monthly basis?
My second question is does she still need to have taxes withheld for New York State, and City because she works in New York, even though as stated we live in New Jersey? Also, should she be paying other taxes such as Unemployment, Family Leave Insurance, Disability and if yes, then to which state should these taxes be paid?
Any information you could provide would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Resolved Question: What are your options when you go out on maternity leave?
(Mon, 18 May 2009 18:29:27 GMT)
How long and how much do you get from NJ disability? Do you get SSI and for how long? I pay into a short term disability for how long will I get it? What are my FMLA rights? I know that Governor Corzine recently signed legislation that will provide New Jersey employees with up to six weeks of paid family leave under the state’s temporary disability insurance program. The law goes into effect July 1, 2009. This benefit will be 100% paid by the employee, but when will I get it?

$650 million in coupons to help people switch from analog to digital televisions,
$2.4 billion for “carbon capture” demonstration projects,
$4.19 billion for ACORN and other “Community Stabilization Activities” groups (even though ACORN is the subject of a RICO corruption lawsuit),
$400 million for “global warming” research,
$335 million for sexually transmitted disease education,
$2.1 billion for Head Start,
$2 billion for day care programs,
$500 million to speed up the processing of Social Security Disability claims,
$150 million for “livestock insurance,”
$6 billion for colleges and universities,
$13 billion in Title I grants for academic support,
$13 billion for special education grants to states,
$20 billion for food stamps,
$1.7 billion to help the homeless,
$1 billion to pay heating bills for poor people,
$200 million for senior nutrition programs,

$30 million for “smart” appliances,
$5 billion for public housing,
$87 billion in Medicaid funds for the states,
$2.5 billion for the National Science Foundation,
$2 billion for the National Park Service,
$2 billion for “neighborhood stabilization programs,”
$650 million for the National Forest Service,
$600 million for NASA,
$600 million for new cars for the government,
$75 million for programs to help people quit smoking,
$800 million for Amtrak (which hasn’t earned a profit in four decades),
$150 million for maintenance at the Smithsonian Institution,
$79 billion to help pay down state debt from reckless spending (in California, New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts),
$17 billion for Pell Grants,
$400 million for “habitat restoration projects,”
$726 million for an after-school snack program,
$2.25 billion for national parks (essentially doubling the park service’s budget), and
$30 million to save the habitat of the “salt marsh harvest mouse” (which lives in the area of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi).
So, what did President Obama mean?
Fred K - Just a note: Dem Congress and House did not pass the budget, waiting for Obama to get in office. President Bush never saw the final product, you cannot sign what never crosses your desk! They knew Obama would just sign it.

Resolved Question: NJ Tax withheld for PA Resident?
(Wed, 18 Mar 2009 20:12:06 GMT)
Hi,
I am on L2 and I started working from Sep 29 2008. I live in PA and I my office is in NJ. PA WITHHOLDNG of $ 468.37 (total for 3 months)is deducted from my salary
Also NJ Tax for the following items are been deducted each paycheck. A total of $141.34 is deducted from my salary in 2008 -
NJ UNEMPL EE - 58.45
NJ NJ WDPF - 3.82
NJ NJ SWAF - 2.67
NJ OASDI/EE - 76.40
When I tried filling the NJ 1040NR form, It said, I should not enter the above item deductions sum in the 44 th line
44. Total New Jersey Income Tax Withheld (From enclosed Forms W-2 and 1099) . . .
--------------------------------------------------------------------
From Instructions ----- Do not include on Line 44 amounts withheld as New Jersey unemployment insurance/ workforce development partnership fund/supplemental workforce fund contributions (shown on the W-2 as UI/WF/SWF, if combined, or UI, WF,
and SWF, if stated separately) or New Jersey disability insurance contributions (may be shown as DI). These are not New Jersey income tax withholdings and may not be used as credits on Line 44.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then I tried to entre the above amount in the 47 & 48 th lines
47. EXCESS NJ UI/WF/SWF Withheld (Enclose Form NJ-2450. See Instructions) . . . . 47
48. EXCESS NJ Disability Insurance Withheld (Enclose Form NJ-2450. See Instructions)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
But the Instructions said ------
If any single employer withheld more than the maximum for either UI/WF/SWF ($113.06) or disability insurance ($133.00) contributions, enter only the maximum amount for that category on Form NJ-2450.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Am I eligible for the refund of the above items if I file a NJ 1040 NR? Also will these deductions stiop if I Fax a NJ-165 to my employer?
Per paycheck an amount of $25 is being cut as the above NJ deductions. Really curious to know if I could get refund for these deductiosn, Please help -

Resolved Question: How to win an unemployment appeal in New Jersey?
(Mon, 15 Sep 2008 13:35:06 GMT)
My husband got denied unemployment. He was on disability until 7/13/2008. He broke his ankle in May. His company CVS/Pharmacy informed him that he was going to be granted a leave of absence. His manager told him don't worry he was going to take care of it. In the middle of his disability his insurance/benefits were terminated and he got a letter stating his leave of absence was denied as well. After his disability was over he filed for unemployment. They denied him stating he failed to inform employer after his disability. A co-worker stated that the district manager was telling people that he "wasn't coming back" he never said that he wasn't. We want to file an appeal because it's not fair. He is able to work now. He has worked for 10 years, he has paid into unemployment all his working career, how is this fair? Has anyone filed an appeal before?? I need help.

Resolved Question: Is W-2 Box14 entry for CASDI (California State Disability Insurance)a valid claim on Form1040 Sched A Line5?
(Sun, 18 Mar 2007 18:20:48 GMT)
Instructions for Line5 say to include "Mandatory contributions made to California, New Jersey, or New York Nonoccupational Disability Benefit Fund, Rhode Island Temporary Disability Benefit Fund, or Washington State Supplemental Workmen's Compensation Fund" which seems vague at best. I have scoured the web for information addressing this question. CASDI is certainly mandatory.
