I have an unfiled tax return that is 8 years old. I have filed every year since. should I file that return now?

Alimony (spousal support) is taxable. Child support is not. If you want to file, or you have enough other income to be required to file, then you must include the alimony (spousal support), and you must not include the child support.

If the $300 a month is the only income that you would have to include, then you probably don't have to file to at all.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
