Anyone else feel like the IRS is just throwing darts at a board to decide who to penalize? šÆš¤
Nah, they're just underfunded and overworked. Doesn't excuse mistakes, but explains a lot.
Whatever you do, DON'T ignore the notice. That'll only make things worse. Trust me, I learned the hard way š
pro tip: if u get disconnected, call back and ask for a manager immediately. explain what happened and theyll usually bump u up the queue. worked for me last time!
Anyone else feel like they need a law degree just to understand these notices? š¤ Why can't they write them in plain English?
For real! I always feel like I'm decoding some secret message š
Pro tip: If you're having trouble paying, look into an installment agreement. You can set up a payment plan with the IRS to pay off your tax debt over time. It won't help with the penalties, but it can make the overall payment more manageable.
Anyone else feel like the tax system is intentionally complicated just to mess with us? š¤ Like, why can't this stuff be simpler?
Preach! š It's a conspiracy to keep accountants employed lol
have u tried sacrificing a goat to the IRS gods? Might work better than actually calling them lmao
Instructions unclear, accidentally summoned an auditor š±

I'm in the same boat, OP. Identity theft is no joke. I've been dealing with it for 2 years now. Make sure you also put a freeze on your credit reports if you haven't already. It's a pain, but it helps prevent further damage.

ā¢Thanks for the tip! I did freeze my credit right after it happened. It's definitely been a hassle, but better safe than sorry.

Has anyone tried using the IRS2Go app? I heard you can request a PIN through that too, but I'm not sure how reliable it is.

ā¢I tried it last year and it worked fine for me. The interface is a bit clunky, but it gets the job done. Just make sure you have a strong internet connection when you use it.
