Different strokes... I distinguish between excess, mixed up client information that is disorganized and voluminous from clearly marked orderly highlighted or red marked pages stating (I have a stamp) DO NOT PROCESS ATTACHMENT TO FORM 1040X ONLY or 940. If the amended form is on the top, the auditor, agent, even the client is free to pay attention only to that and disregard and/or discard any and all other documentation deemed superfluous or irrelevant. Different strokes - I have yet to be reprimanded, chastised or otherwise corrected for doing this. On the other hand, I have had relatively few amended returns of any kind.

I agree.

I agree with Elrod. I've had to do only a few but I generally reside in the 'better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it' side. Given recent discussions about making things as clear as possible for those IRS folks, I think they will discard if not needed but may appreciate the guidance.

I would Catherine, That way they'll have them whether they want them or not. Just a sure fire way of being thorough.
