I received a letter in the mail from the IRS saying we owed money and needed to get it paid. The letter looked legit but I am quite suspicious. We have our taxes professionally done and it seems a little fishy that we thought everything was paid for and settled and now we owe all these hundreds of dollars.
I reached out to our tax guy and asked if it was a scam or legit. If it was legit if he had an idea why we still owed?
Turns out it was legit. Phew, we aren’t being scammed.
The tax guy explained the reason behind the big bill. We filed an extension under joint married but then filed separately and the IRS doesn’t recognize that t as a legitimate extension. Seems complicated and I am glad people have this as their passion. It certainly is not mine.
He will write a letter on our behalf explaining we did everything correctly and that sum of money will disappear. Cool! It is always good to verify scam vs. non-scam.
Today was a little rainy. I remember I used to tell the kids that “God was crying” when it rained. I would then say “it was probably because of something you did.” And then just laugh. This was stolen from Saturday Night Live’s Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy.
After work I went in for a few hours to work at the vet office. It was steady and we stayed busy. I like staying busy. It makes me feel useful. Plus I get to see more animals.
The ladies I worked with tonight were especially hilarious. They had me cracking up. That is always a good thing. It makes work fun.
