Kea Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 My husband is making my new business cards for me. If I hadn't proof-read them, I would now be a ..... "Registered Tax Return Repairer" Not sure if it's true or not, but I somehow don't think IRS would approve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kea Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hmmm... not sure if I'm "qualified" -- are your a "tax return"? Maybe I can get some more training and become a tax return preparer repairer??? I can see a big demand for that profession! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRS Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Hmmm... not sure if I'm "qualified" -- are your a "tax return"? Maybe I can get some more training and become a tax return preparer repairer??? I can see a big demand for that profession! I am already seeing this. I have a very, very small practice, with the intent to retire, yeah right. I have had 10 "redo's" this year involving at least three back years from "legitimate preparers." I guess I qualify as a "repairer." Short example: Special needs adoption handled as "regular adoption. Did not carryover any expenses, even though wrong, was about 2K. After amending, the 2010 refund went from $350 to $23k plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kea Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Great repair job!!! My best repair was amending for an IRS nastygram (self prepared). Went from IRS bill of $8K to getting minor (additional) refund. Originally reported stock gain / loss as selling price and commission for basis; and took state sales tax deduction without adding for city.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kea Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm glad (?) to know I'm not the only one who dreams about taxes. Last night it involved numbers dancing from line to line on Sch E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catherine Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 My husband reports that he has often heard me muttering form numbers and tax terms in my sleep in the thick of the season. I can report many dreams of forms, numbers, returns, etc. I have _never_, however, dreamed of listening to that horrid muzak while on "ignore" with the IRS. First time I do that, I'm quitting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gail in Virginia Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I remember one year my mother-in-law asking me if my husband would like a pair of Levi 501 jeans for his birthday in May. I asked him later that week if he would like a pair of 501-c-9 jeans, and got very frustrated that he did not know what I was talking about - until he finally repeated what I said and I realized that there are no 501-c-9 jeans! :spaz: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
