INITIALLY, the child support was 51.6% of my pre-tax income.  I no longer pay child support, that ended last summer.
Now for your answers, Eddy --
1)I always do the 1040A for the deductions.
2)My condo is mortgaged to almost 140% of value.
3)I haven't taken any classes in over 15 years.  I can't
 find a reason to take them, and don't have the time.
4)Yes, I give to charity.  My charitable deductions are
 two or three times the amount of my mortgage deduction.
5)Other than the government Thrift Savings Plan, I don't
 contribute to a savings plan.  I wish I could afford to.
6)No stocks or bonds, and no money to buy them with.
7)As far as changing my W4, I have opted out of that.  When
 I filled it out, I had a wife and six children.  The IRS
 have told me that it is perfectly legal to not change it,
 since it was correct at the time it was signed.  That way,
 the government doesn't get to use my money free of charge
 until they issue a refund.
8)This is my tax situation every year, because I haven't
 changed my W4 since the divorce.  The federal government
 withholds taxes as if I had eight deductions, and simply
 expects me to make up the difference each year.  That's
 been going on for over ten years.  My state withholdings
 have been adjusted, and results in a small refund each
 year.  I would rather owe the government than have them
 owe me!  But I wouldn't mind owing them less!

You are aware that the prime minister of Austrilina passed a law about internet usage tax right?  It will be AUS $.05 per hour.

I can understand being concerned as to what you sign.

Don't want a rehash of that 50 crates of fizzies sent to Brazil...
