I think it's a darn shame that personal financial management isn't a required course study at the elementary, junior high and high school levels.

How can an organization at large (public schooling), that is utterly, egregiously wasteful in its own budgeting teach about budgeting?Quote:

The S-Corp is specific to you and your business and is on the level of your LLC filing, exists for all your customers.Quote:

The only time it doesn't make sense is if you are transitioning between contract/employee work or back and forth (which would look sketchy to the IRS).
So... hrm.
When we went through HR Block, they calculated our return at 454 dollars.
I just logged in to the bank account and saw our return direct deposited: way higher (6.5k).
So now I guess I gotta go back to HR Block and have them double look. I can’t imagine the IRS corrected HR Block and found a mistake in our favor. If they did, awesome. If not, then I want to get it back ASAP so we done get hit with interest charges on an erroneous return.
Anyone ever experienced this issue and have any advice on steps to take?
Hehehe ...Parabolas.
Yea, I'd be looking hard at it. I suppose it's possible HR messed up royally. I'd be pounding on someone's desk over that if so.Quote:

Couple years ago someone tried to file my taxes for a refund. ROTFLMFAO. I never get a refund. I pay big $$$$ every year. Thankfully, the IRS must have smart enough algos to figure that one out and did not issue a refund to the scum. Interestingly, they accepted my extension in April as is usual, but the fraud had been committed months earlier. Why they didn't contact me is a mystery. I only found out when they rejected my e-file in October with a code that indicated I had to contact the IRS before paper filing. They agent basically told me they were waiting for me to contact them. It was a huge hassle for me to straighten out, prove I was who I said I was, and actually file that year.
HR Block called my wife back. They said that when we filed our taxes there was a system glitch (unclear if on theirs or IRS) and wasn't calculating the child tax credit, so the IRS has been correcting this before sending returns. So, according to them, we indeed have a return which is much higher than we originally thought. However, it comports much more with what I'd been calculating w/ the help of online calcs prior to filing.Quote:

Any idea how long it takes to get the IRS explanation letter for refunds?
My experience is they'll claim they sent you two letters that were ignored and the third will be a demanding letter threatening asset seizure or wage garnishment.Quote:
