The Greek Ministry of Finance latest press release approves the information that the reduced VAT rates on six of the most popular Greek islands and holiday destinations will no longer be applied.

In our previous article, VerdeTax had presented the standard VAT rates in all 28 Member States of the EU.

Now, we will focus on the reduced VAT rate and the areas to which it is applied.

As you already know each country in the EU determines by itself the applied VAT rates for goods and services. However when talking about the reduced VAT rates there is a minimum amount which must be taken into consideration. The minimal amount for the reduced VAT rates is 5%, and there could be some exceptions in which it would be even smaller.

VAT is charged throughout all countries in the European Union. However each country determines its own VAT rates. These rates are separated in three: Standard VAT rate – which is being applied to most or all supplies, Reduced VAT rate – smaller rate applied to a limited package of supplies and in some countries there is a zero or super-reduced VAT rates on some different type of sales.

The IRS and the tax preparation and filing companies agreed to work together, starting the next filing season, to combat tax fraud and identity theft.

The joint effort will include finding a way to validate taxpayer and tax return information at the time of filing. According to all parties, the new initiative will increase the sharing of information between the tax industry and the US government.

Our tax specialists from VerdeTax made a list with some funny, unusual and strange state taxes from USA. Every state has its own laws and sometimes some of those laws can be quite unusual. But here is the list of those that can be very interesting in a strange and funny way:

Blueberries - Maine produces all but 1 percent of the wild ones sold nationally. The state taxes them in every possible way. Anyone growing, handling, processing, selling or purchasing blueberries pays a tax.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is the revenue service of the US federal government. The IRS is responsible for collecting taxes and the administration of the Internal Revenue Code. Here is the brief history of IRS.

The roots of IRS go back to 1862, when President Lincoln created the office of Commissioner of Internal Revenue and enacted a temporary income tax to pay war expenses - Civil War.

In 2015 you will be filing your 2014 taxes. That means that in 2015 you can apply for refund of the income taxes you paid in 2014.

This is pretty obvious and still totally unknown for a lot of people (even at VerdeTax). The yellow arrow that starts from “A” and points to “Z” purely says “hey, we are selling absolutely everything in our store”. Some people are suggesting that it also indicates a smile. This can only mean customer satisfaction and high quality of services. Nice.

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. It is celebrated on the 2nd Monday in October for Canada and 4th Thursday in November for USA.

But there is something else associated with it - the National Thanksgiving Turkey Presentation. It is a ceremony taking at the White House every year just before Thanksgiving and since 1989 (during the first Thanksgiving of President George H. W. Bush) the president pardons a turkey and spares the bird from slaughter. The whole thing is called “presidential pardon”.

Anyway, the names of the pardoned turkeys (and their alternatives) are actually what we are after. And here they are:

• 2009 – Courage and Carolina
• 2010 – Apple and Cider
• 2011 – Liberty and Peace
• 2012 - Cobbler and Gobbler
• 2013 – Popcorn and Caramel
• 2014 – Cheese and Mac

Nice job White House staff, can’t wait for 2015!

Have you ever looked at your pay stub wondering where half of your wage is going before even getting into your pocket?
You are not alone. Many people are not familiar with the majority of the taxes they pay and the method of deduction or even the fact that they might have overpaid taxes. There is a big chance you are due a refund and don’t even know it.

Tax refund is the amount of overpaid taxes that you may be entitled to receive back by the government if too much tax was withheld by your employer.
