All 50 State Tax Rates in One Place

This great site contains a simple one page listing of the 2007 income tax rates in all 50 states.  No doubt there is further research needed to fully understand tax brackets, standard deductions and exemptions, but to get a quick idea of how income would be taxed in another state, this is a very hand resource.

 This is a worthy bookmark.

Simple Tool to Insert Date/Time

I use outlook tasks as my system to make sure I don’t let anything fall through the cracks.  A handy tool that I have found is the Insert Time Stamp tool from Sperry Software.  You can configure the software to insert your name, initials, and many date and/or time formats.  You simply hit the f6 key in Outlook, and almost any other program you are in.  It comes in handy when completing electronic checklists and review sheets, and when signing off on electronic workpapers.

Finding the contact information for those can be burdensome. Bookmark this link. Here you will find a quick listing of the taxation and revenue departments for all 50 states.
