IRS Examiner Found SICK Credits Error - Tax Preparer Ghosted Me - Need Help ASAP
Just got off the phone with an IRS examiner and found out there's sick credits on my return that need to be removed. My tax preparer put them there but now they won't answer my calls or messages. I have no idea what paperwork I even need. Starting to panic because I really need this refund. What are my options?

Tax pro here. You're likely dealing with COVID sick leave credits that were incorrectly claimed. You'll need to file Form 14929 to remove these credits. Meanwhile, report your tax preparer to the IRS using Form 14157. Get your records from the IRS directly by requesting a wage and income transcript online.

Usually 8-12 weeks after they receive the Form 14929, but times vary based on backlog

Hey! I actually just went through this exact situation. I used taxr.ai to analyze my transcript and it showed me exactly what was wrong and how to fix it. Cost me $4.99 but saved me hours of research and confusion. The AI walks you through everything step by step. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

100% legit! It spotted my sick credit issue immediately and even generated the letter I needed to send to the IRS. Best $5 I ever spent fr fr 💯

Quick question - did they give you a specific amount for the credits? Might help others identify if they have the same issue
