    Global Entry Enrollment just inside
    Krystie D.

    Oh my goodness! The amount of stress walking in was crazy. We accidentally went to Ronald Reagan Airport TSA Enrollment Center instead of the Global Entry Enrollment Center at the Ronald Reagan Building (seriously!) and was running late for our appointment. We were so worried we'd missed our appointment and would have to wait hours! Ahhhhh! We were so, so relieved when we arrived and the agents informed us we would still be seen next! Our agent was fantastic and friendly and calmed us enough to get us to laugh about our morning. She informed us that our mistake was common and plenty of people have performed our same run around the city finding the location. The process itself was crazy fast and easy. Our agent talked us through what to do on future travel and answered all our questions about upcoming travels booked before Global Entry approval. Great customer service, very relaxed and friendly staff, and a much smoother, stress-free experience! I couldn't thank the agent enough!!

    I wanted to take a moment to leave a heartfelt review for R. Tate, who works in Offer in Compromise…read morewith the IRS. Like many people, I was honestly scared going into this process. The IRS has a reputation that can feel overwhelming, and I chose to complete my Offer in Compromise on my own instead of hiring a CPA or accountant--which made it even more stressful and time-consuming. Throughout the process, I had a lot of questions and moments of uncertainty, but R. Tate was absolutely incredible. She was patient, kind, and took the time to answer every question I had without ever making me feel like a burden. Even when things got complicated and I had to go through the appeals process--which ultimately ended in my favor--she continued to support me and guide me. What truly meant the most to me was that she went out of her way, even calling me after hours (despite being two hours ahead), just to personally let me know that my application had been approved. I was in tears. That moment meant everything to me. I know the IRS can get a bad reputation, but R. Tate is one of those rare people who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond to help others. Her compassion, professionalism, and dedication made a very stressful situation feel manageable, and I will always be grateful for that. Thank you, R. Tate. I truly appreciate you more than words can express.

    I file my own taxes and I am strongly opposed to taxes but for the sake of living here I have to…read morefile them and I do not want to go to jail. I recently got a notice from the IRS saying that I owe " X" amount of money. The thing is though is that I paid my taxes when I amended them in February and they took out my money from my bank account. I get a letter saying that I owe the same amount that I paid initially the only difference is that they added 34 cents on the IRS end. So all these guys really coming after me over 34 cents perhaps ? I wanted to call and correct them on this because I'm being held hostage about paying my taxes yet again before a certain deadline or I'll be paying more interest for something that they should see in their own account that they took out of mine. Unfortunately there is no one to call and navigating the phone call it's like walking on eggshells . I want to say I've tried about 50 times to call the IRS and I was unable to get a hold of a single human. Overall, I know I will get this money back one way or another. Maybe one day we will be like all other countries where we don't need to pay for having to get our taxes filed and like most modern countries do. Whatever happened to those 86,000 agents that you hired last year that you're not talking about this year? Did he all get laid off because of AI taking their jobs? Do better! Oh! And Taxation is theft

I would have played along just for grins but I was busy and just told the "Detective" that I would call the local FBI and SS offices in the morning to confirm. Click. And just like that my career as a border bandito and fugitive came to an end. Basically. If the SS administration wants to get in touch with you they'll write a letter instructing you how to respond or where to call. If a call of this type finds you it is one hundred percent bogus. Hang up... providing no information whatsoever. There's no shortage of scams out there ranging from 50% off your cable bill (for a small fee) to more insidious hackers trying to infiltrate your PC or laptop with malware all in the name of "security." Stay safe out there. Five stars just because.

    To be clear this is a review of the facility and parking and not a review of how DHS does business…read more I came here a couple of times for meetings with my GOVT customer. Since I am a Defense Contractor I have to get a badge and go through their security. I must say they are very polite and efficient. They get you screened and badged up rather quickly. The issue with this location in parking. They do not have visitor parking and there is not even enough parking for those who work daily in the facility which has several BLDG's. I have had to circle around for over 10 minutes hoping for an open spot on the road in front of the facility both times I have came here. I will now add 30 minutes onto my schedule to allow for me to find parking when I come here. The facility is made up of a hodge podge of BLDG's that are in OK shape. Since DHS is a fairly young entity the BLDG's were renovated when they took them over. I don't mid coming here except for the parking issues. I guess you could Uber here but it is kinda of out of the way from hotels and would be expensive. I didn't see any taxis around either.

    This is a review of public access to DHS, not the way DHS accomplishes its mission…read more I took a taxi from downtown DC to an appointment at DHS. The taxi driver had never been there before and didn't know the procedures to drop off a passenger. It sure didn't help when the guard started shouting at the taxi driver instead of calmly explaining what he wanted him to do. Once inside the visitor processing office, the folks were relatively easy going and pleasant. Note: American University Park is not a part of DC where taxis cruise the streets, especially on rainy days. After the meeting, I finally walked to Massachusetts Avenue where after another five minutes a taxi picked up this wet passenger.

    My review is for the department that handles Treasury Direct. The year my Mother died I…read morecoincidentally joined the United States Savings Bond Program Offered by my employer. I was always recruited to handle these activities at work. After being trained about the program I was sold. Then I was responsible to promote it at work to coworkers. I realized unlike my parents I needed to save more for retirement. Plus I was good at sales since I bought into the program myself. For the next nine years I purchased a $500 EE Savings Bond monthly for $250 each. The bonds reach $500 value eventually and keep earning interest for 30 years. The first four years we were getting 4% interest. Then the government decided to fluctuate the interest with the markets. My first four years of bonds have been locked in at 4% interest all these years. They couldn't (or decided not to) change that promise. Those I will cash in last as the need arises. Around the year 2008 they took the program online. You could create the account in the Treasury Direct Program and purchase or cash in bonds using the online system. They said Goodbye to paper savings bonds. One day with Nine years of paper bonds in hand my daughter and I sat at the computer and entered each one into my new online account. Afterward the account is finalized when the Treasury receives the paper bonds. You mail them certified to Treasury Direct. Over the next ten years (approximately) I periodically checked my balance. Then finally in 2019 I needed to start drawing on the bonds to meet expenses. I drew $5,600 and $2,600 was interest earned. The program has been excellent to deal with. I received an email that my 1099 was on line well in advance of January 31st. I noticed the box wasn't checked about tax responsibility. It should be marked Yes, or No. I know it is interest earned and put the income on my 2019 tax. A few days after I mailed my tax sure enough an email arrived from Treasury Direct saying that there was an error if you print your 1099 through their website. The tax requirement box appears blank. They apologized and corrected the error. I guess they corrected. I didn't check. I'm no dummy I know it's taxable in my case. If you cash EE purchased after 1989 and use the money for education expenses you get a tax break. That's not my case. They would get Five Stars except this is the only Treasury Program I use. Overall I like them. They get my tax check too! I'm glad they use my tax for savings programs like this. I've made more interest all these years than in a brick and mortar banking institution. Even if I pay tax on half of what I draw out I'm happy. Forgot! They don't offer joint ownership of EE Savings Bonds yet as far as I know. Or at least mine can't be converted. Mine were purchased in trust for my daughter. My daughter has to deal with it when I'm dead!

    As an activist for Children's rights, I have on occasion been incarcerated for acts of civil…read moredisobedience, that is in fact part of my job, to bring about awareness of a terribly unjust family and juvenile court system. America's ANTI-family and Juvenile courts make rulings which in all honesty result in the abuse of our children and they make these rulings for what amounts to hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue to the states, counties and their employees every year. In any event, The jail in Washington DC, is one of the worst jails it is definitely a real s*** hole. Everything is stainless steel, I mean everything including the beds. This is obviously done so that they can keep the place clean and free of infestation. The inmates receive nothing, no pillows, no tooth brush, no tooth paste, nothing. I was not afforded the luxury of staying in my cell and relaxing in DC they have a very high turn over, especially so with activists. Again they institute scare tactics big time by leading you to believe you are a terrible criminal who has committed a crime against the government when in all reality, they are the criminals. We all have a first amendment right, it should in fact be our most important right but the government would of course rather you did not have or exercise that right The jails in DC are very over crowded. Days are spent moving prisoners from jail cell to jail cell. Some cells are crowded to the point where 50-60 men are in a 12x12 cell, obviously one can not even sit down in that environment. The toilets are over flowing, hence the terminology, s*** hole. These jails are over crowded so they have a high turn over. Judges work 7 days a week and at least well into the night. This is pretty cool because in most counties if you are arrested on a Friday, that's it, you will not see a judge until Monday. Depending on your crime, that is if you have committed one in their state and not being extradited, you will see a judge within 72 hours, that is the law. However, Washington, DC is over crowded so they want to get you out. Of course everybody pays a fine, COURT IS AFTER ALL AN INCOME GENERATING BUSINESS. The food was sub par as jails go. Apparently the local inmates think it is pretty good but they have apparently not visited a true 5 star jail. The property is secure, the jailers are OK, nothing special here either. The new scam in many jails are the phone systems. Yes, you can communicate via telephone with an outside party but they must put a rather large deposit into the systems account. Calls are about $1.00 per minute, definitely a scam, fortunately the ACLU is onto this scam and should have this shut down or at least a fair rate charged . Speaking of the ACLU, all jails nationwide are now mandated to have panic buttons in the cell, I did not see a panic button... Like any jail, the objective is to scare you into not wanting to go and make you miserable while you are there so that you do not want to come back, Jails are all solitary, only the high tech, long term jails or prisons offer additional comforts. Butte County is just a jail, no big deal. If you are in jail for a righteous cause like children's rights, no one can break you down. I rate this jail a 1 on a scale of 1-5. They could have better food and treat their prisoners better. It is not necessary to be an ass and a jailer, I mean, you met your just being an ass.
