I owe the IRS $4,000
So I get home and the wife says she’s got bad news: A letter from the IRS saying we owe $4,000 on our 2018 taxes.
Apparently, she sent all the right paperwork to our tax preparer, but when the preparer returned the completed forms she forgot to include one. My wife failed to check that and signed the return (and got me to sign off, trusting her) and sent it off. So here we are. My wife is afraid I’m going to divorce her. (I’m not.) Anyone have an experience like this? Do we have any recourse? That 4 Grand could buy a lot of Super Bowl swag. |

Is it a fine or is it just paying stuff that you would have paid anyway? I think you might be able to get them to forego some interest and maybe some penalties, but you won't get out of any actual taxes.

Can you send an amended return with the forgotten form included?

Also does your preparer have some kind of "we'll help if if we ****ed up" kind of guarantee?

Without knowing your whole details and the whole shebang, for 1040X, generally for a tax refund, this form must be filed within 3 years after the date that the original version was filed, or within 2 years after the date that the tax was paid, whichever is later. Also, if you anticipate a refund on your current year and if you owe prior year taxes, likely the IRS will apply that refund to prior years before refunding it out back to you or applying to your 2020 taxes. And you should also talk to your accountant that they should bear some responsibility for this as well.

I'd definitely have words with the preparer.

Chuck some tea into the nearest large body of water and beat the shit out of every British person you come across.
