So I've been renting a room for about a year and a half, and the landlord (who is also my roommate) is remodeling then selling the house soon. I've been applying to a few rentals, but was denied for not having a rental history. I didn't go through any kind of rental agency for where I live currently. Is there a service I can use or that my landlord can use to report rental payment history, wherever that gets sent to?

I have a credit score of just under 700 (just building credit for the past 8 months on a pre-paid credit card, it's a short credit history), so it's not just to increase my credit score, but specifically I'd like my rental history to be on record somewhere.

Hi,

I'm in California, and all my income is through my sole proprietorship LLC (self employed). I elected to defer half of my social security taxes for income made between the end of March to December 2020. I filed my taxes with TurboTax.

It's not clear though where I'm supposed to pay the deferred taxes. I never got any info from TurboTax about what was owed after the initial payment on the tax return, I was only able to find the deferred amount that I still owe (by the end of the year) by looking at Line 12e of my Schedule 3.

My assumption is that I would pay it by adding the amount to one or more of my estimated quarterly payments (or at least, the first three, the fourth being in 202

Hi,

I work as an independent contractor, and I do all my billing through PayPal. According to PayPal's website:

PayPal will track the payment volume of your account to check whether your payment volume exceeds both of these levels in a calendar year:

- $20,000 USD in gross payment volume from sales of goods or services in a single calendar year

- 200 payments for goods or services in the same year

I met the first criteria (over $20,000 USD) but not the second criteria (200 individual payments). PayPal has not generated any tax documents for me.

I'm doing my reporting through TurboTax, and it's asking about what type of income. I have not received any tax

Hi all,

So I have a habit of re-wiring motorcycles (what's with previous owners always messing with the wiring in the worst way?) from scratch with brand new wiring when doing a rebuild. Even factory wiring tends to have a lot more electrical wiring than necessary. Up to this point I've only been able to find up to 10 colors of wire, so I usually label each wire individually where they connect to components so I can easily identify them.

However, I think I do it often enough that it would make sense to invest in a much larger variety of wire colors. Anyone know where that can be ordered individually?

So I just put the bevel gear cover back on, and the clutch doesn't seem to want to disengage. The photo shows the position with the lever squeezed. I also tried using a wrench to manually pull the lever here farther than the handlebar lever goes, and no change in clutch. Any ideas? Maybe something happened on the inside? This lever is hard to pull as you would expect. The rod inside never came out. It worked fine before.

The manual says that the clutch should start to disengage after the notch on the bottom starts going past the notch in the top in this photo: https://pasteboard.co/JzhPN39.jpg This is a 2005 VN750

Hi,

I just bought a Kawasaki Vulcan for a fairly good price, being aware of those two issues before I purchased. The voltage does not change much at all, stays at 12.2v or so whether the motorcycle is off, running, or at 3,000rpm. So it must be either a bad wiring connection, a busted regulator/rectifier, or a broken stator.

The headlight also does not come on. neither low beams or high beams work, and the high beam indicator light on the gauge cluster does not come on when the high beam switch is enabled. Checking the fuse box, no power is going through the "HEAD" fuse in/out (checking both sides with a voltmeter). So either that's related to the charging issue, or it's a bad relay (assu
