How exciting!

Oy. I hope you find someone to fix it.

As for me, 2 days ago I mailed off my stuff to the IRS in response to their notice that they think I didn't pay enough taxes in 2010. I hope I explained it to their satisfaction cause I don't have $18K in my back pocket.

Moving? very interested..

Only sympathy, Swimp.

Thx, dear. I'm trying to stay cool. I definitely don't owe them any money. I think I sent in adequate documentation. Just hope it is over quickly.

If you don't owe it, you won't have to pay. They are more likely to let it kind of die than actually tell you the decision is in your favor. I think they like to keep people off balance.

If you actually have to take it to court, don't accept the Tax Court. They tend to rule in IRS favor. US District Court is much better, though you will have to pay the disputed amount sometime before your hearing.

Thinking good thoughts your way Swimpy for a quick and stressfree resolution to this IRS crisis....

Thanks Rog. According to the notice, they are required to send me their decision. My rational side tells me that I have nothing to worry about. My not so rational side is telling me something else.

Thank you, tsar. Now, enough about me.
