I just need to vent my frustration.

So, my dad took all my tax info (w2, payments, etc.) and filed taxes FOR me without even asking me for 2012. Ok, even that was okay because he told the tax lady that I have to file MARRIED BUT SEPARATELY. She said ok. I was looking through the tax return today and it says "SINGLE". #######. I am beyond upset. Getting this fixed will be another stress I don't need. Not only did the tax lady mess up my marital status on the taxes, the last 3 pages she attached is not even my taxes! They are of some other couple who filed electronically in 2010 and all their information is now in my hands. I can't believe this. She not only messed up my information, she even gave away some other couple's social security numbers and important information too! WOW! :angry:

Most incompetent tax person ever? blink.gif

Yes. Yes, indeed.

Sorry to hear Mina......please refer to my "The Rant" so you can join many others ranting .....

I will surely look into your thread!

Didn't you have to sign it?

Well, it's the electronic version sent to the IRS, so I do not have to physically sign it. They give the printed out copy of what was submitted, that's where I noticed all these issues.

But before they send the electronic version, you have to sign a sheet verifying the information.

Apparently her dad took it all in, and this incompetent woman didn't require it?

You can fix this issue though right?

That's why I said the lady needs to retire because she doesn't follow any rules. So, no, she didn't even wait for a signature from me.

Yeah, I filled out a tax amendment form (1040X) to change my filing status. It just takes IRS a while to get it all changed because they're so busy with everyone else's taxes.

And usually the amendment cost as much as the original return. That woman needs to be reported to the IRS

It is actually more beneficial to file as single vs married filing separately. As married filing seperately you are ineligible to for the tuition and fees deduction, student loan interest deduction, tax free exclusion of US bond interest, tax free exclusion of social security benefits, credit for the elderly and disabled, child and dependant care credit, earned income credit, or the Hope and Lifetime learning credits. Also IRA deductions have a lower income phase out if you are married vs single.

Not saying your tax preparer was correct in doing this, but she probably thought she was helping you out by classifying you as single.

Yep. But you aren't eligble to file single if you are married. You either have to file married filing jointly or married filing seperately. That tax preparer is not any good and will make you get in trouble with the IRS.
