And people want to give the government more power?
 
I'm amazed at how stupid the IRS is, its also amazing how they screw up, assume you are guilty than have to prove it was their mistake.:rolleyes:


I paid my taxes in early April, sent them a check via certified mail, etc. Check was received and cashed by the IRS shortly after, all should be good right? No. I get a letter about a month latter saying I never paid, bs I call my accountant get copy's from my bank of the check, and routing number used when it was cashed to transfer the funds to the IRS's account. Accountant sent them a letter pretty much saying you have my money, any problem is on your side. After sending a couple more notices the letter kicks in and they say oh, my bad.:mad::rolleyes: Now I just get a letter in the mail today, saying the balance that was credited to my account was "erroneously" applied, and I owe them interest and late fee's now.:mad: Now I get to play the game all over again, Oh please IRS overlord I'm just a humble peasant I paid don't crucify me!:rolleyes:

I'm pretty sure these people have the IQ of a small monkey on their best day.

Since the PO is still going broke, maybe the IRS has been asked to help by increasing the letters mailed.

Oh wait they posted it late so you owe them late fees and interest for the time between April 15th and now?

Yes, I believe you are correct...........the PO is going broke.........the OP must pay.

The only place they need extra power is by way of the voltage for the chair !!

If they looked at how much extra they actually recover compared with how many people they employ & pay, they may find out that the country would be better off to sack the lot of them & save more by not having to pay them.

FYI if you E-file your taxes, it eliminates most of that BS. I had some paperwork problem almost every time I filed my taxes the old fashioned way, but for the last couple years Ive been E-filing them, and I get a notice within the day, sometimes within the hour saying they have been accepted and such, or rejected if I screwed up. Way more pleasant than mailing everything off.

Your experience sounds almost exactly like several I have had with the IRS. :D Whaddya expect though, its a huge huge bureaucracy full of troll like people. Eventually, it will get done correctly, but only after they grind your bones to make bread.

That reminds me, it's almost 10/15; I need to send in my return.

This even more bad news for the Post Office (PO).

I have to figure out how to e-file. I used to when I had a job and it worked pretty well, but now my tax situation is different. My accountant pretty much gives me a sheet and says write a check for X amount.

I just don't understand why their is such a problem I send them my quarterly checks and their doesn't seem to be an issue. Now my accountant needs to send them another letter, waste of everyone's time and money.:rolleyes:
