It's California. I'd be wearing shades. But, you got it right on the car. It's a red, '94 Buick Regal with peeling paint.

1040X with corrected SE form and an adequate description in the explanation box should do it. Not sure what you want to stamp 'Do not file' on. Taxpayer's should check their SS earnings in about a year, because I doubt the 1040X will be updated over to SSA.

Maybe I am missing something, but if husband had negative SE income (less than $00) but wife did not, wouldn't the amount of tax change if the income was moved from him to her? She would be paying SE tax on all of it, as opposed to him paying on the amount above his negative SE earnings.

About 10 years ago Oregon had a tax amnesty. I prepared 11 years of regular corporate returns . My client filed the state returns and did not file the federal returns. My client paid Oregon the corporate tax due plus 1/2 of the interest. The state waived all penalties and 1/2 of the interest. The next year I prepared and my client filed both federal and state corporate returns, which we have done every year since then. To my surprise, my client has never received any letters from the IRS about the missing 11 years of Form 1120.

If you are in this business and don't have a sense of humor, things can get pretty frustrating.

I am definitely leaning towards having a new computer built with a clean install of Win 8.1 that includes a free upgrade to Win 10.

I am so happy Max, that you have a sense of humor. I truly meant no disrespect, but what you wrote in your previous post struct me to be so funny, I wanted to return the humor to you. Your picture on here is more handsome than what I posted......Hope your computer comes back..

Oh! I was thinking 2018. If it was for 2016, they can do it now. You could fill out the forms for them and have them sign it.

Do not amend. You will be filing a zero change in tax and the IRs has a good chance of screwing it up as it is not a tax issue, but a SS earnings isuue. Wait a year until your clients earnings are posted to the SS files. Then, there is a procedure on the SS website for correcting them.

If you disagree with wages reported to your earnings record, complete Item 7. ... If you do not have self-employment income that is incorrect go on to item 10 for any remarks, and then complete Item 11

Max parking his car..... Max going to office...... Max in office working taxes...... Max at home after a hard day at office.....

Not mad, just not a good typist and it doesn't help when several letters on the keyboard are obliterated. I never get mad at ignorance, only stupidity.
