Catherine Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Noticed something odd in an e-file ack's (I print out the e-file acknowledgment history; one copy in my files, one copy to client). This client owed some money. As usual, the left column showed the negative "refund" amount. But the middle block ("Current Ack Detail") showed this same amount as an actual refund amount. Since someone cannot both owe $250 and be expecting $250 back on the same return, I wonder if there is a glitch in this middle box reporting. Has anyone else noticed this? Of course, in my copious free time, I went back to look at some of my other returns where the folks owed and indeed this is more widespread than just this return. It's like they don't have a way to show negative numbers. This particular client is an engineer, and he'll notice it and want details. I just know it.
