I just got a letter in the mail notifying me that they are withholding my refund why they review my return. Is this the beginning of an Audit?

If so, they know the differance between manipulate and adjust.
About 20 of us car hauler friends travel many miles to go to a very good firmer IRS agent.

One year she says to a guy "a little heavy on your fuel" ?
He said "oh no, I wouldn't do that ".
She says " over xx% will draw attention".
He says " let me recheck my work, I MAY have made
a mistake".

You get to write off the cost of tax preparation, I wonder if you get to write off the lube needed for an audit.

I read that they collect $4 for every $1 they spend on collections.
The upside is if he had a large return planned, after an audit he'll probably have a small return.
There should be no dreaded penalty and interest.
Hopefully, they say " sorry for wasting your time."

I heard alot of peoplr claiming eic or education credits got letters? Hopefully they are just trying to spread out the refunds..I think the sequestration may have been an issue? Idk but I need that money for a down payment on my new Transit/Promaster

I wouldnt recomend turbotax to anyone. I just got an email from them, stating they were goung to take 118 dollars out of my bank account by march 29, per agreement made when I filed my taxes. But they are one of the reasons the IRS is reviewing my taxes in the first place. And the IRS says it could take atleast 45 days. I tried calling thier customer service, but was on hold for almost 30 minutes, then talked to an Indian representative ,that I could hardly understand. All I understood was "no worries, everything going to be fine" . ..

Why are they taking the $118.00 ?

Is that in additional to the $79.99 ?

Has Turbo Tax been bought out by XPO ?

Hi All, there is a problem with turbo tax if you live in the state of Minnesota, According to the state, there are problem with there returns with in all of the Intuit labeled software, weather it be Turbo Tax, Turbo Tax Online, and there 2 professional versions that were sold under the Lacerte and Pro-Series. Intuit is correcting the problem, but as of this date it has not been corrected. Currently it only pertains to the state of Minnesota, If you need verification go to Minnesota Dept of Revenue web site.Franklin Katz, ATP, PA, PB
