Most of those requests don't lead anywhere. If they do, there is a qual. test right there (and it takes you to it) or they are automatically giving it out as soon as you request it.
People will watch for hits that say they are qual hits. Sometimes, those are posted on the forum (so watch for that!). Other times, a batch will appear, you'll do some - and a few days later you will get a qualification for the hit.
It pisses me off that they still have that useless Request system in place. They know it doesn't lead anywhere. We know it doesn't lead anywhere. The only people who usually don't know are the clients themselves.

Holy shit.......you can do it for free online with their service.
every time I've tried to do my own taxes it says I have to pay in several hundred, but when I actually go have them done I get stuff back. Idk what I do wrong but I'm too scared to do it myself lol

Better safe than sorry, I suppose. I have been putting doing mine off but I really need to get on it. I'm going to owe a fuckload.

exactly my thinking. I didn't owe but I didn't get back what I was hoping I would. H&R Block fees didn't help :(

Oh SurveyComet, please let me catch you.

According to TV, there are 3 different IDs for the the same HIT. don't know which one I should Panda.
Use mturk's excellent interface to find the qual you have and choose that version of the SC HIT.

Too bad mturk has a terrible interface for finding quals you have.

You might want to shop around. I have a very complicated tax situation - and I only paid 200. Usually, I do my own. But this year there were too many 'moving parts.'
