Deliver it in cash. That’ll freak them right the hell out. Haha.
They’ll know you’re coming, DHS will have all sorts of warning from your bank when you make the withdrawal.
Wait. You could pay $400k by check. The restriction is on checks more than $100 million. Or am I reading that wrong. According to your calculation of paying the first three quarters of ES, your annual tax bill is around $400 million. That means you made around $1 billion?I do have to wonder what you would have to be making in order for this to be a problem.
This was from form 4868, the extension request, where you have probably paid your first 3 quarters ES taxes and this is the balance ie a small part of your annual obligation.
Let's say you wanted to pay $400K. So maybe your annual tax bill was 4x that or 1.6mil. In the higher tax brackets, does that mean you made, I dunno, only 4mil?
Nah, mess with them, send one check, registered mail! Goofing aside, we ran this backwards when I was a vet in college - the effing VA was as incompetent in the 70s as they are now, and it was 50-50 if you'd get your monthly check, which made it tough to stay in school. So we'd run the checks, which were printed on punch cards, through a key punch machine, throwing in random punches, then use a magnetic tape degausser to gack the MICR encoding.Have a look at this, wouldja?
I was all ready to send my 9-digit payment in and I stumble upon this.
Sheesh!
Such a small-time operation that they won't accept it! Seriously crimping my style. I guess I will have to write several checks to accommodate their ineptitude.

So it doesn't seem to be a hard and fast rule?My check cleared.

Pennies!
All U.S. pennies (1-cent pieces) minted since 1982 weigh either 2.5 grams (0.088 ounces) or 3.11 grams (0.109). The 2.5 grams Lincoln Penny is composed of brass (95% copper, 5% zinc), while the 3.11 grams Union Shield is composed of copper-plated zinc (97.5% zinc, 2.5% copper).
So how much would it weigh?
About as much as it does.
(Is this the 'Ask Anymouse Anything' thread??)
You the one what said pennies so you the one I replied to. Anyone can answer it
