LOS ANGELES, CA, March 28, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Figuring out whether or not file taxes and how to file is confusing enough. When the IRS decides you owe money when you know you don't - that just gets plain stressful!
Take Steve (Alameda, CA), for instance, who came to Blue Tax after being harassed by the IRS and State because of a mistake made by his daughter's mortgage lender. Steve's daughter was receiving funds from a malpractice lawsuit, which was the basis of her income. Her mortgage lender was supposed to reference that income in their records but instead mistakenly applied it as Steve's income.
The goal of the Blue Tax team was to get the IRS and the State Tax Board to accept the fact that the client's income did not require him to file taxes for the years in question: 2006-2008. Doing all of this in a timely manner was the greatest challenge of all...but Blue Tax was up for it!
First, the Blue Tax team called the IRS and State to map out what was needed to resolve the issue. They then sent the client the necessary paperwork and questionnaire for him to fill out and return. Once Blue Tax had received the documents back from the client and had an opportunity to review them, they requested all determined supporting documents from the client to send off to the IRS to prove that they had no filing requirements for 2006 through 2008. The IRS requested a copy of the mortgage agreement because the IRS was receiving erroneous info in the father's name from the daughter's mortgage lender. The client sent in the lender's document accompanied by a letter from his daughter's mortgage lender stating that the father was not supposed to be on the loan.
The Blue Tax team of experts was able to get the IRS and the State to agree that they had no filing requirements for years 2007 and 2008. Since Steve had sold some stocks and property in 2006, he was required to file for that year. Blue Tax prepared and submitted those return filings within two weeks. This mix-up was finally solved and this father could breathe easy!
