How does transportation work in Washington DC?
I'm thinking of taking a trip down to Washington DC. Can anyone recommend a hotel near the monuments? Also need to know how transportation work there? Are the monuments like the Vietnam Wall and the National Mall close together? Is there ample public parking at them or would I be better off taking taxi's?

have you ever seen one of those red tourist bus... well something like that

they are kinda close but your best bet is walking it or taking a bus and and there isnt alot of parking...parking acually sucks

The Metro take you within a 1/2 mile of everything. You need to get on the computer and study maps and sites. I went to the library to get the book, Washington D.C. for Dummies. It really help me alot. Any hotel near a metro is fine. I stayed in Georgetown area it was real nice. The Vietnam wall and the Lincoln Memorial, Korean War, Nurses memorial, Washinton Momument , World War II Memorial. We walked to everything once we got off he Metro. Parking is alwful and you have to pay like$10 to $20 a day to park you car in Washington. It cheaper to go to an outside area as long as you stay then at your hotels there yo usually park free. We stayed 8 days in the fall and had a wonderful time.

I suggest you get a hotel (Ramada, Sherton or Best Western) in New Carrolton, MD-Take The Orange Line metro to downtown. It will save on cab fare and the hotel are less then DC prices

Do they take state taxes out of my check if i work in washington but live in oregon?
I live in Portland but work in Vancouver. In washington they normally don't take state taxes out of your check but Oregon they do. I live in Oregon... Do I need to pay extra taxes later to the state if they don't take out state taxes out of my Oregon check or how does it work? Thanks for the help!

They should. Since you're an Oregon resident, you have to file as an Oregan resident. You're going to pay it one way or another. You pay exactly the same amount no matter what they do. The only way your return would be higher is if they charge you penalties for not having it withheld or paying it on time. (The guy below me is wrong. Washington state has NO INCOME TAX. You probably knew that. He might be from New York.)

Oh Joy, you get to file two state income tax returns. After you do your federal, you do your washington income. Then you write a check, or get a refund. Then you have to do your Orogon return. But they give you full credit for the taxes you paid in Washington. But wait, there is more. The state taxes that were with held for 2009, you can claim on your federal 2009 return. But when you write a check, you have to claim that on your 2010 return. As for me, I have to file taxes in Colorado, New Mexico and Missouri. It could be worse. Senator Al Franklin had to file tax returns in almost 50 states. Then he filed for a big refund from Minnesota. And this is a guy who writes jokes for a living.

Mark M is wrong. You cannot "file two state income tax returns" because only one of these two states has state income tax returns. You must file a federal (IRS) tax return and an Oregon tax return. You must pay Oregon taxes. If they do not withhold from your pay, then you should make estimated tax payments to Oregon four times each year. You should not wait until you file.

Yes you are going to have to take Taxes out for Oregon just head over to there City Building and they will guide you along the way to getting this goal accomplished correctly..

Checkx.com is a sales arm of Inventive International, There are roughly 6 companies who sell these membership for Incentive International. It is a great concept, I sell these inventive tools in Southern California and personally use this program. There is not catch! That was my first though upon hearing about this program. Now that I have sold them and personally redeem my own gas and grocery receipts, it makes more sense. The Gas and Grocery brands are paying you for your loyality. They allow you to shop anywhere but once you have choosen a brand you must use that brand for entire redmeption process. The only question I get, can I send it ALL of my receipts for a rebate. The answer is NO, we are a incentive program not a storage company. I hope this helps, if you have questions, Please contact me at brian.morales@full-tilt-marketing.com

If your W-2 shows California taxes were taken out, yes. I used to live in Washington... my ex worked part of the year in Oregon and he had Oregon State taxes withheld from his paychecks on the money he earned in Oregon/not the money he earned in WA. We had to file in OR on the money we earned in OR. My current husband worked 5 months in LA and was paid out of the State of WA. We did not earn income in LA/we did not get paid from a LA source therefore didn't have any income to report to them/no income was reported being earned in LA. It gets a little complicated from here on... but pay special attention to how any Per-Diem was reported. I won't get into that since that was not what your question was asking.
