Hey Guys!!! Want to have some fun???
Spend the better part of the day at your local IRS office trying to undo the mess left behind when your accountant had an aneursym!!

I SWEAR I have never been through anything like it and hopefully never will.

And, no, I'm not foolin'.

:banghead:

2. Damn.
:(

I hope it was just omissions that you could fix by providing information, and not errors that have to be unraveled.

to the tune of approximately $33,000.

5. Wow. I'm very sorry.

I hope it's all now corrected once and for all, and the hit won't be too hard.

7. We're still working on it.
They were very nice, but oy. They told us we didn't file in 2006, which of course we did, but just in case brought our copy with us. She said, "Yes, it's in the system and you actually got a refund!" We knew this.

Then halfway home, she calls Mr.'s cell to tell him that she was mistaken; it ISN'T in the system, so back down I go only to discover that this particualar agent, after telling her that we were on our way, had left for the day. The wait time at 3PM was long enough to move everyone over to the next day, so I just left. I'll go back tomorrow. :banghead:

10. Whoa! My sympathies to both of you. Wouldn't want an aneurysm or an...
incapacitated accountant. I hope it's over and done with and you can more on.

11. Well, he is unable to assist us because he is unable to speak at the moment
and his calculations were incorrect, so we paid them $25,000 today and will pay off the rest next month.

:cry:

I am feeling just a tad sorry for myself.

13. You're LAUGHING AT ME?????
:rofl:

If I didn't laugh, I would be in tears. $33,000 is a boatload of money. Writing that check almost gave me a heart attack.
