Done!

If only Wolters Kluwer could get things back online as fast as you do!

The APTC is not exempt from collection activity. I have one client that went to HRB in 2016 and it was not reported correctly, resulting in having to repay $15K plus penalties and interest. They had taken some money out of a retirement account and it pushed them about $3K over the 400% poverty line. There have already been some court cases and the finding was that congress did not provide any relief for this. IRS collection notices for the ISRP use the same code numbers (CP 503, CP523, etc) as regular collections letters, but with a capital H - CP503H, CP523H.

DNS is like the phone book of the internet. It ties names (atxcommunity.com) to numbers (67.255.188.166). If your ISP has a crummy DNS server and doesn't refresh its phone book properly, every time you go to atxcommunity.com, you'll get the wrong number and see the old site on the old server. When I start the migration, it'll be late in the evening. I'll shut down the site and replace it with a message that says something like "we've moved to a new server. as soon as the internet does its thing, you'll see the site again" and then follow that with my contact info. If 12 hours goes by and you're still seeing that, then your ISP has unreliable DNS servers. Luckily, it's pretty painless to change two numbers in your router's configuration (although all routers are different so finding them can sometimes be tricky) so that you can use some nice, free, fast service from a 3rd party that you don't even have to sign up for. As an added bonus, they'll respect your privacy more than most ISPs. I started years ago using Google's Public DNS because I had a crummy ISP. Cloudflare's service is faster, and I prefer not to put all of my privacy eggs in one basket so I switched. If there's some down side to using their service, I have never encountered it.

I usually reup about now. As you may well imagine I am going to hold off for the time being.

Thank you, Eric, for everything!

Alright, I'm feeling motivated. I'm going to move the site later this evening. The transfer itself will be very quick. I probably won't start it until after 10pm eastern.

The IRS can not take collection activity on the individual mandate penalty, but as Max pointed out that has nothing to do with repayment of PTC.

in large part because we need to use the fool things, and without accepting the tos we're dead in the water.

Specifically, the law allows the IRS 10 years to collect the SRP, however it does not allow late payment penalties, liens, levies or criminal penalties.
