I have so much on my calendar for October I am already dreading it! End of the month I will be spending a week with the Linze's while Dana and John go on their honeymoon. With the money I plan to get new tires which I need very badly.
My Mom is in some serious shit. The tax guy she has had for years took her money and didn't file taxes at all for the last 5 years. All the sudden she started getting a levy from the State of Iowa. They are taking every single check and my Mom is about to lose everything. She called the tax guy and he hastily slapped together some returns and filed them, signing her name in the process. She doesn't know if he did the same with federal but I am betting he never filed, or did the same thing just this month. Not only did he forge her name, he had lost all my Mom's information and punched in false numbers in the returns, making it look like after all the inflated deductions, she only made a net of $1,500. Soooo on top of this levy, she is now getting audited. They won't lift the levy until the audit is complete which could take weeks, maybe months. She has a new tax lady who is trying to file amended returns to get the levy lifted in the mean time so my Mom can at least pay the bills.
The problem with the audit is it's for the last five years and my Mom lost almost all receipts for her business when our roof was ripped off in that horrible storm last spring. She can prove it through pictures and the fact she got a settlement from insurance, but it complicates everything.
But this asshole is not only facing serious jail time for fraud and forgery of official State documents and possibly Federal, but my Mom has very solid ground in suing his pants off. Andddd he supposedly does the tax stuff "on the side" His main job is a partner in an investing firm. Who knows how many people he has ripped off to drive his fucking Hummer around town.
And I bet he is republican :)
