maybe IRS

[Twomoles 8]

Few days before I was upset about RFE we got and I posted my thoughts and questions here looking for advice.

RFE was about that they need W-2s, 1099s, (what we did sent). Also, we got letter from IRS, stating, that he never sent in taxes for 2005 (what we did, and even received paycheck back for 2005). And then they say they never received anything, isn't this wonderful.

Could it be that they check data with IRS? And other needed organizations.

If they really check all possible instances, or do it somehow in random, then now it makes more clue why all this process is so slow. And now we are dependent not only from USCIS, but other institutions possibilities to screw things up and be slow.

So we are sending all the same financial part package to Chicago again, and 2005 taxes to IRS again too.

isn't this wonderful?

Lovely! Our government is well organized and operates smoothly. Didn't you know?

Lovely. And makes me feel helpless against all this bureaucrat machinery, who have rights to make mistakes and loose whole tax year, but blame us.

Do you have copies of your 2005 returns?

You need to get on the horn with the IRS AND...if applicable...whoever prepared your 2005 tax return so you can get this straightened out.

Yes, we had all copies of everything. We resent all financial package to USCIS again, and 2005 to IRS. What else we can do, when they can do everything.

I'm concerned that the IRS has no record of your 2005 return, particularly since you say you got a refund.

Yeah, that makes no sense. I've never manually filed, always efiled through turbo tax, but it's not like the IRS to just "lose" a refund 2 years after the fact, especially if they've sent a refund check. The IRS tends to come after people who don't pay as opposed to people who owe money (even though you are supposed to always file, you're in more trouble if you owe).

Just doesn't add up to me.

Yes, we do owe. And very big money. Its from his business time. He fall in bankruptcy in 2004, but his book keeper (what was actually his ex wife) Didn't send in correct amounts about his employees last quarter of 2003. So from few hundred mistake, now we are in thousands because of interest. We have proves that he wasn't hiding, but they kept send things to wrong business address. Even letters sent to IRS, asking that everything is alright, and what other documents to supply. And by the way, he had audit in 2004, but they didn't mentioned a word. So he lived in happy feeling that everything is alright. And now, we get surprises. But it shouldn't has nothing to do with AOS, and we will fight this. Because they counted interests for years, what we have no clue about.

If he owes money to the IRS, then WHY did you say they sent a refund check? If he owned money on taxes, they don't SEND refund checks.

Also, and audit in 2004 isn't going to help as far as not having 2005 taxes since it's 2 years before those taxes were filed.

Because in 2003 he was in business, so he was business buddy, now he is working as self employed and its for 2005 now he is a person itself. And in IRS one left hand doesn't talk to right hand. Yes it is weird. We got refunds from 2005, but then letter that he owns 18 000 from 2003. But this is not all. Now they sent him letter asking him to send forms about his employees, but he haven't them for 3 years. Then they send letter they don't have year 2005, what we sent, and of curse got refund. And there is more stuff, he is bitching about, I just didn't went deeper in this problem. So USCIS is not only amazing, IRS too. Because he all the time had his personal address for all his life and same SSN, but they sent mail to some not existing business address. Even he had audit in 2004, and even his tax accoutner kept in touch with them, and of course, respond address wasn't Washington. Idiots! I don't now what else can surprise us.

The thing is...it isn't the IRS's responsibility to notify you about this sort of thing. It's your responsibility to get your taxes right in the first place.

Don't tempt fate, you could be audited again.

But this is the weird thing. If we owe, why they send refunds. And how else to be aware if something is not payed off. He did showed interest and did asked, and did contacted them. And why they come with this only now, after 4 years. Like you believe your taxes are ok, and after few years they say its not? And they have thousands in interest. We called to find out about what time period and what time and everything. And actually he believes he sent all checks, so now we should get old bank transcripts, and probably hire attorney. Because it isn't fair at all. And what comments can be about IRS work, when they lost 2005 taxes? We get refund back, and then statement, that they don't have 2005 taxes.

Whatever the case is, all I hope it wont affect AOS.
