TOTALLY GEEKED!

How old is the girl?

Wow. They don't sound very supportive.

I can't imagine the insurance went away. What they say? Used w/o permission?

she hasn't lived with them for almost two years.  She could really use a good tax refund to pay that hospital bill since they didn't help her out--or even let their insurance pay it.

---

Then she should file her own before they do.  Theirs will be denied... 

---

 Oooh, good thought!

 That's what I'm planning.  Hopefully she won't fight me on it.

 Why would she fight you on this? It's her money.

Sounds like they're playing both sides of the fence. They are claiming she lives with them, as a dependent, but denied she lives with them, to the insurance company.

 Heck, they don't even have to live with you to be on your insurance.

 She might not--but she doesn't like change, or the veritable "rocking" of the boat.

---

 I think "rocking your boat" would be much worse then rocking her parents boat. She doesn't live near them.

I don't know if the ins. Will allow them to drop her just like that. Trudy? Our expert?
She definitely needs to file taxes asap. Good Gawd.

---

 They do.  You tell your insurance company who to insure.

---

 Husker...florida may be different but when my friend tried to take her 19 year old son off hers....they required his drivers license. She had to fight with them for months to get him off her policy.

Also....this is their issue. Hopefully your son will pressure into womaning up and taking care of business.  I am sure it's frustrating to watch but  he picked her, right?

---

It's not that simple.

my sons picked these girls that are almost completely dependent on them.  They are nice girls, and that is worth a lot, but by extension--they are partly dependent on me. 

Husker.....you don't have to let it become your problem. She is old enough to be a real adult. Helping will prevent her from doing so. Perhaps feeling the discomfort of the situation will inspire her to grow up and or your son to rethink?
I an attest personally to the downfalls of enabling....

Trudy....I love that you're evil☺

Permissive use applies to those you allow to drive it occasionally if they do not live with you. If they live with you, you need/should name them individually on the policy. If parents "dropped her", then she might be implying that she still lives there, or she doesn't but still does not have permission to drive their car. My guess is she probably claims she still lives there, to be more consistent with the IRS.

Am I right, Trudy? Close?

Yes, she files her own, indicating that she is not anyone's dependent. Then if she finds out they claimed her, she reports this to the IRS, since it's tax fraud.

The IRS pays a bounty for people who report tax fraud.

 

 

How much support comes from her family? 51% they can claim her.

"Choose better" ringing in anyone else's ears?

Then it's all on her.

She's an adult. The adult your adult son chose.

Oh. We all see the irony in your posts.

If this were anyone else you'd be blasting them for it.

"They should have chose better" is your battle cry.

Well, Husker, this is your child, you raised him, why didn't he choose better?

Now I'm not saying this girl isn't the sweetest girl on the planet.

She may very well be.

All I'm saying is you might want to think about it next time you feel the urge to throw that "choose better" in somebody's face.

The IRS will pay her a 10% bounty, and audit them for the next 7 years, and probably back over the last 3 years. 

They won't be pleased.

 A LOT less crappy than calling the insurance company to have them deny a legitimate medical claim and then trying to illegally claim her as a dependent so she then won't have the money to pay the bill, herself.

It sounds to me like the parents have done a bang up job of that all on their own.

 Given what I know about them--absolutely.  She'll be better off.  Some people aren't good at parenting.

My wife hasn't had much of a relationship with her parents for quite some time. Since we moved back to town, she's having a bit of a rapprochement, but it remains to be seen if that is a positive thing.

 The n husker should stay out of it and let her figure it out on her own.

 How do you figure it out when youve never been taught to think on your own?  Dont you teach your children things?
