I feel like a therapist. He is away from her and living in his car or at his girlfriend's house. He works, she did not (maybe $400.00) 3 children. This year they owe money using mfj and BIG bucks if mfs. Each one calls me individually. I am his preparer, I don't know where she goes or even if she files. I am thinking they should send me something in writing or e-mail as to their filing status. I am really feeling concerned about this return. I don't IRS knocking on my door. She won't sign papers for the children for him to claim, they live with her. She says she is claiming the children. I feel like I stepped into a bees nest.
Any suggestions.
