... The funds were to go into an account for my daughter as stipulated by her dad. However, his wife hasn't done this nor has she told anyone how much was raised or where it was spent (we are told its all gone). She didn't report the funds to anyone. I would like to know:
1) How does collecting welfare affect a fundraiser?
2) Who claims the money on taxes or to IRS?
3) Do taxes have to be paid on the funds raised?
4) Are any forms required prior to initiating the fundraiser?
5) Other type(s) of reporting required upon completion of fundraiser?
6) Since funds were for a minor isn't proof required to substantiate an
account has been set up for the child PRIOR to the fundraiser?
The wife also refuses to give my daughter her personal belongings left at her dad's house (trophy's, awards, 4-H ribbons, photo's, clothes, etc.) as well as items and gifts her dad gave her throughout her life and her entire childhood (she is only 10 yrs old now), all holding precious memories of her dad when he was alive. Many of these items are also from her grandmother, who also wants her granddaughter to have these things with her and not left behind.
** Though no will was left, it is clear that these items are my daughter's
personal things and I have receipts for some of them from her
grandmother so would I be able to get her things with a sheriff?
