Mon/Tues.

I'll give it a bump:thumbsup

good news so far, hopefully there will be more reports like this one soon.

Well, there is nothing wrong with taxes. But how do you report the income that is not available in your country? Here, once you have the money in your local bank account, you pay the taxes. For example, deposits, checks, wires, and so on. Nobody can check other jurisdictions if doesn't have legal right to do so.

Epassporte is considered offshore, so you probably don't have to report income to IRS while it's not made in the US.

AFAIK you have to report all income, even if it's offshore or you made it outside of the USA.

If you're a US citizen, I think you need to consult a good tax attorney because I believe you are in error. For example: http://www.bankrate.com/finance/taxe...count-tax.aspx

For anyone (not saying you are included in this) who did skirt the law blatantly I believe the IRS has a policy of no jailtime for those who voluntarily try to fix the problem and disclose things voluntarily. So IOW, if you were to see an attorney pronto and deal with the IRS before they come after you, you might stay out of jail. But if you wait you might be screwed if they decide to play hardball and come after you criminally (Sort of like Wesley Snipes). I hope this helps someone.

Thanks for the advice signupdamnit... I am not a US citizen, but I thought tax law might be the same in some aspects... Anyway, thanks for information.

What they care about, and that is good for both US and Canada, is where your activities are. You are free to earn money offshore and keep it offshore but you must be able to prove you were physically offshore as well when you earned it. Working in the US but cashing out of the US isn't good enough...

Of course some are shaving the law, some think that doing your company AGM once a year offshore is enough to pretend activities are done over there but I think if they start an audit on you and find this out it will become a nightmare. I prefer to sleep well at night :)

this is a good thread potentially...cant wait to hear back

WOW!!!

Have a look at what just showed up on my statement!!

10 Sep 2010 Wire Transfer Fee $-50.00 $X.XX
10 Sep 2010 Wire Transfer $-X.XX $X.XX

( of course I replaced actual amounts with those X.XX )

I'll wait till a actually see it in my bank account to celebrate but I think I'll start drinking to that right now!

I sent my request last Friday around 11:00 AM EST. This wasn't my first wire, I was doing one once or twice a month so I was all verified already. Don't know how much it helped.

Awesome news guys.

Supposedly my 6 figure wire has also been sent. looking forward to it.

Thanks epass for coming through!

glad to hear wires are going out guys....

That can mean that situation with VISA cards won't be resolved soon...

The two are not related. But i doubt the cards will ever work again.

If evryone gets their money I will apologize for the nasty things I have written about epass and cm. Let's hope this continues!

I know, but what I was told by one of ePassporte account representatives is that the wires will start going out once the problem is solved... since it's still not resolved, that means they started sending wires knowing that it won't be resolved soon and they don't want to put their customers on more anticipation and stress. At least those who had money in their wallets. For us others there is no solution yet.

Where You found Wire Transfer Request Form (Wire Disbursement Form) ?

Ask Mike

Flashfire i know this is inconvienient, but i would love to know which steps you went through....exactly

We are based in canada as well

This is the form I've used:
linkmypdf.com/pdf/18a2f/28f1dc01/

I filled it and I emailed it to the email on top + I CC'd my acc rep. Note that I have a biz account. I don't know if the form is different for personal accounts. I guess not.

don't bet on the Visa giving up that money anytime soon

Let us know when it hit's the bank!

any update yet?

What the fuck is it with all this bogus information shit?

You have received your money when it shows up in your bank account! :2 cents:
So don't create a thread about it before you can confirm that the money went out.

It is 6am where he lives. Give it some time damn :1orglaugh

wtf are you talking about? He said the money left his epass count and has not yet hit his bank account. How is this bogus info?

If you don't have a consistent argument please don't resort to the dictionary...

Epass refuses Bank Wire Transfer!
 

Update: As of Sep 13, 2010 5:34 AM PDT I received this automated reply in my Epass Inbox:

Welcome to September the 2nd., 2010...

you can't move money from your visa virtual card only from wallet...

@Dejan:

And guess what happens when trying to "Transfer Within Your Account":

There is simply no way to access the money, neither through Visa, nor through Wire.

But still they're selling Visa plastic cards, account upgrades, etc.

webworking, where have you been for 1,5 weeks?

If its in your wallet... Kitts owns this money and will pay you out.

The virtual funds are being withheld because they are owned by epass... who no longer wants to deal with kitts or vice versa. A partnership closing... Epass wants to find a new bank and take our money with it.

(I could be wrong... but I dont think so).


Sabby:)

I do hope our money on VV will fix soon because I need those money :(

not sure why this was bumped but as I posted earlier I my wire is now safe in my bank
