IRS DID WHAT?
I sure wanted to write about what the IRS has done to my family. I was shocked when it happened and I couldn't believe it! What to do? Well, I guess I do what I do... tell my story here...
My daughter was so excited last year when she got her little W-2... she eagerly went to the tax place which will remain nameless... (but it was not H&R Block :) Now the last year before that, her dad claimed her on his taxes. But my daughter, bull headed that she was, wanted to rush to get her kids taxes that she is entitled to. So she goes in and they tell her, "well with these numbers you will only get back 35$ and that doesn't even cover our fee. But let me see what we can do."
My daughter had no clue that what they were going to do would make her a criminal. But they created numbers and said "Hey, you will get back this much if we do this... you will just have to come up with a record book." My naive daughter thought 'Hey cool'... and figured these people knew what they were doing and figured they wouldn't do something illegal. So she happily signed the paper work that got the company over 500$ in fees. Wow... she thought she had hit the jackpot! She was happy for a minute... but then later, came home and started telling me about the great deal she got, but had to create a work book. She was asking me to help her!
Me, I am not quite so naive, when I heard the story from her, I knew right away it was a scam and I explained to her what was going on... why would these people take advantage of a young naive girl?
So I go down to the local IRS and instead of taking us in and doing something about it right then or making an appt... they give us a paper to fill out and mail in to them somewhere in MO. I couldn't understand why they didn't take care of it that day. So I rush home and fill out this paper explaining in my own written hand that this TAX company was taking advantage of my stooge daughter and we wanted to stop them!
A couple weeks later we got a letter from the IRS, acknowledging the complaint and said we didn't have to do anything more, that they would look into it.
So, I do her dads taxes and added her name on there, like the year before last and we thought it was all good. We got our check, no problems. I was happy things had been resolved! Happy that I had diverted my daughter from getting into some serious trouble!
So there we were, going along pretty good. Well as good as we can be, with 1 person making an income and 6 people living in the house. My daughter is going to school and not working... so we are pinching pennies. The other student in the house doesn't have a job either... but you know... GOD always provides and I don't care if I have to eat beans for the next few months until they graduate, I am going to see them through it!
So, like I said, we are just going along doing the daily grind...
And then one day...
We got a phone call... from my daughters babies daddy... the IRS had given the 4+ grand that this tax company was going to get for her... to HIM for back child support! WOW... how did this wiggle its way into being? How did this happen? Why did our system do this?
Inquiring minds want to know...
...and now will the govt later on down the road say my daughter is a criminal?
I think this is corruption of the worst kind...
Our IRS at work... :(
