Introduction & Question on Cash Gift...

OP said their income was 12k and they have a wife and 5 kids. Whether it is income or not isn't going to matter. They are well below the median no matter what state they are in.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I interpreted his sentence to say he is Over the Median by 12K. Isn't odd how different people read into sentences?

Tbornetun: I hope you are Right! in this situation.

Nope, your right, I am a dumba$$. Duh, ignore me.

Yeah, that's correct. I ended up being closer to 20,000 over median by the time it was filed and everything was figured. After means test, I had DMI of roughly negative 850.00, sch J is negative by about 550.00, so it really isn't an issue (the gift that is.)

We did give the money straight to the atty and she listed her payment as coming from my family, as a gift.
