That question doesn't have a direct answer.. Since you have filed taxes, I am guessing it will depend on where they pull your information from. Since the IRS is the handling all of this, I am going to hazard another guess and say they will use their own info first.  From everything I've read...

Ok, making a quick information drive by ;) to help anyone that doesn't know this. If you do not file taxes due to receiving SSI or VA pension benefits only... YOU MUST FILE A SIMPLE TAX RETURN TO GET YOUR CHECK! A lot of media are reporting confusing information that Social Security recipients...

Just dropping by to let those of you with the ATT  Mobley know a work around I found for stopping the 2hr time out. I have my Mobley in my RV on a power adapter.  My device didn't start timing out until December, and yes it was irritating for it to time out.  But I found anytime I even bumped...

To start with I agree.... Nothing will withstand the dog... that is a separate problem that needs a remedy My bed is custom sized, it is standard twin width but only 66 inches long (yes, I am short). I took 3 pillow cases and sewed them together edge to edge with the open end all facing the...

Ok 2am update..... A tank of gas and 6 hours of driving... I now have my ac electric side back on ... the culprit wound up being the inside breaker box which has now been completely replaced ... since this is a 1978... original equipment was not an option....but what is in there now is actually...

On SSI ...You can own a car, a home (Yes, it can be a travel trailer)(don't know about the RV), and these will be excluded ... they also don't count your personal assets like clothes, dishes, furniture etc, etc. If you own a home or live on land things like your lawn mower are not counted. If...

remembered I had a volt meter....I am getting 120v to the RV power cord so the supply side is good....and I have checked that cord and it doesn't show to have a problem... it is 8ga and is still supple and flexible with no cracks or breaks..... It seems to me it almost has to be the converter...

Thanks jimindenver I think you maybe answered my question... If my converter went out I should still have power to the outlets even if all my 12v lights are out.... because I am on shore right. This thing is old (1978) so no gauges or meters for the battery supply or tanks. Just a few toggle...

Ok I'll try to make this explanation as short as possible... I have a 36ft 5th and a 20 ft Minnie Winnie on my own land.... so both are on shore power. I like the Minnie Winnie best.... so I awoke in the middle of the night, last night, with no power (fan stopped)..checked and 5th still had...

I only quoted the site but air-slated lime is pickling lime.... so I think I would look more at canning supplies... it is food graded lime

I love really old cookbooks because they are truly from scratch recipes but many of them also contain  very useful (sometimes forgotten) info for van life, camping and homesteading. I picked up a local church one the other day that had no date but I found that one of the advertisers was in...

Ok I have been where you are.... except mine was a decent house in a getting progressively worse neighborhood. But it was the best security I had, even though it was a money pit I did not need. Stepping out in the unknown is scary. Especially the older you get. That being said IT CAN BE DONE...

I will second checking the admin settings....mine was shutting off like that (using a charger) once I went in and adjusted the power settings to always on... it quit. I have noticed that if nothing is connected to mine it will eventually power off

ok.... I live in Texas ....If the seller chooses you may keep the tags that are already on the vehicle if they are currant... but that is the sellers choice... he can legally retain them but doesn't have to surrender them back to the state as some states require .... if you need to buy some...

here is another version of an evaporator cooler from the burningman website.... it's designed a bit different as it continues to circulate the water.... might combine the two ideals https://eplaya.burningman.org/viewtopic.php?t=33842
