Often times they delete the site you met them on right after they asked you to move to a more private messaging siteProfesses love to you very quickly & seems to quote poems and song lyrics along with using their own sort of broken language, as they profess their love and devotion quickly. They also showed concern for your health and love for your family.Promises marriage as soon as he/she gets to state for leave that they asked you to pay for.They Requests money (wire transfers) and Amazon, iTune ,Verizon, etc gift cards, for medicine, religious practices, and leaves to come home, internet access, complete job assignments, help sick friend, get him out of trouble, or anything that sounds fishy.The military does provide all the soldier needs including food medical Care and transportation for leave.

As someone who has been in the business since 2001, I can attest to the fact that private investigators face a lot of challenges. From the mundane to the life-threatening, it will vary depending on the individual’s specialty, his geographical location, his status within his agency and other factors.If the private investigator is just an investigator (and sometimes I wish I were — more on that below), his greatest challenges are mostly going to be directly related to the cases he is assigned to. For example and in no particular order:Running surveillance on someone who is “surveillance conscious” (in other words, looking over their shoulder/in their rear-view mirror to see if they are being followed). This might be because the subject of the surveillance has had prior training (we recently surveilled a cheating NYPD detective), because they’ve been tipped-off by someone or perhaps the subject is just paranoid in general and ALWAYS thinks they are being followed.Doing database/courthouse research (for a locate or a background search) when the client has provided very minimal or even incorrect info as a starting point. We have excellent (non-public) databases at our disposal but the old expression, “garbage in, garbage out” still applies. For example, a client asked us to locate a man she had met (and been charmed by) at an out-of-state business conference. All she could tell us was his (quite common) name, David Johnson, his age, 37, and his (very large) city of residence. After days of unsuccessful research, we finally (and semi-miraculously) located her mystery boyfriend who turned out to be Arnold David Jonson (he goes by his middle name), age 42 (he had lied about his age). At least she got the city right.Getting used to people being mad at you. I suppose this also happens if you’re a dentist or an A/C repairman but I’m guessing those guys seldom if ever have people threatening to (and, in some instances, attempting to) physically injure them. Whether it’s an infidelity investigation, a bodyguarding gig, a fake injury scam or a child custody clash, in the P.I. business, most cases dictate that someone — usually the adversary of our client — ends up getting the short end of the stick. And, often, they don’t take it well.Assuming that the private investigator is also a manager or owner (keep in mind that most P.I.s are one-man-shows so the investigator, manager and owner are all the same guy), he will have another category of headaches (challenges) with which to contend. My partner and I are co-owners of our agency and have been since the beginning. We now have other investigators working for us so, although we still try to share in the fun stuff (the actual, street-level investigations) as much as possible, more and more we find ourselves dealing with the administrative challenges of the P.I. world:The paperwork. Like any business (and probably more so than some) private investigation entails a lot of paper pushing. There are certifications and licensing required, insurance, bonding, association memberships, bookkeeping, taxes, etc. And this is all just the “bureaucratic” end of it. The proposal-writing, invoicing and reporting to the clients is another huge time-eater. If you run a fairly large agency like my partner and I do, these desk-bound chores can take up the majority of your day. And trust me, no one gets into the private investigation business because they love to fill out forms!The clients can be a handful. Dealing with unreasonable, emotional and unstable clients is part of the game. I’m convinced that a private investigator draws more “difficult” (I’m trying to be diplomatic here) clients than any other professional apart from, maybe, psychiatrist. People often come to us in a very agitated state. Someone has lied to them, ripped them off or otherwise deceived them and their nerves can be pretty raw and the P.I. they hire can be a convenient target. Add to that the crazy, illegal, immoral or impossible things they see investigators do on their favorite television show (Spoiler Alert: TV’s not real) and handling some clients becomes a nightmare.The growing (largely unqualified) competition. I have no actual, statistical evidence of this but I suspect that there may be more unqualified P.I.s (aka, wannabes) than there are in all other professions combined. The reason? It’s a fantasy occupation for many kids growing up in a world that glorifies the exploits of fictional investigators like Magnum, P.I., Dirk Gently and Sherlock Holmes. Moreover, it’s an occupation that tempts newcomers to “fake it until you make it”. A teenager who dreams of being a rock star or a pro football player either has what it takes or he doesn’t. You can’t sort of be an astronaut. But anyone with a computer and a Nikon can pretend to be a well-trained, licensed, experienced investigator even if they are none of the above. They can even advertise on Facebook or Craigslist or the bulletin board at Starbucks and, perhaps, draw in some naive, paying clients. This does two things. It drives down revenue industry-wide when the newcomer operating out of his parents’ basement offers unrealistically low prices. Secondly, it damages the overall reputation of the profession when the aforementioned phonies inevitably screw up their clients’ investigations. I’ve lost track of the number of prospective clients who have told us, “I’m tempted to hire your agency but that last P.I. ripped me off bad!”For more on this topic, see my response to a previous, related Quora question: Brad Robinson's answer to How dangerous is it to be a private investigator?Home#DetectiveChallenges

If you are a US citizen, resident(?), or company based within the US or its territories, you are required by the IRS to give them a part of whatever you made. I'm not going to go into specifics, but as they say, "the only difference between a tax man and a taxidermist is that the taxidermist leaves the skin" -Mark Twain

If you are not sophisticated with taxes, DON'T try this form. You can get yourself in a lot of trouble.  Get a good CPA or EA.  The time and effort it will take you to figure this thing out is not worth it. If you value your time at more than the minimum wage, you will save time and money by hiring a professional.
