IRS Abuse Report #543

My husband and I always have a accountant prepare our tax so that we can avoid any problem like the one you are about to hear. Our 1993 Tax return was prepared late, only after our accountant filed the proper extensions. On or about 7/8/96 we received a notice that we owed an additional $ 45.17. The amount was paid accordingly and that was thought to be the end. We soon received notices that we owed $ 15,111.67, which later turned to $16, 807.00 with interest added. My husband contacted the IRS office and spoke to Mrs. AC and she stated that no tax was due, she would process the paper work to correct the error.

The problem was not corrected. We made several calls and were told this was their error. The final call was to AW of the Houston office who stated that they knew nothing about the amount owed and that the only way to clear this up, was for us to go through the tax court. This was a lengthy process, which we followed just to have this finished. We went through the entire process. Then a Ms. NJ assured me she understood were the problem occurred ( within the IRS) and she would prepare the paperwork to correct the problem. She gave us paper work and told us just sign it. I was told I would not understand the calculations and to just sign and send the paper work back to her.

I did that. We then received a check in the mail for an amount close to $7,000. We thought this to be odd. We waited, but heard nothing. We knew this to be a mistake. We called and informed them that we received this check and believed it to be in error. They were to check into it. We heard nothing. We held the check not knowing what to do, no one at the IRS knew it existed. After several months we received a panicked phone call from Ms. NJ, she had made a mistake and that we needed to give her the check back. We were glad to give it back, however, we were informed that we would have to give it back plus three months of interest tacked on for THEIR mistake. Currently, our bank account has been frozen and the supervisor to Mrs. J informed us that we are now responsible for interest charges dating back to 1993 which was the tax year in question. Our family has been "Terrorized" by the IRS and their threats.

In 1982 I purchased shares in a record partnership, the partnership made no money.. Years after the investment, congress passed a law on so-called "abusive" tax shelters and the IRS issued notice of tax due. On three occasions I went to the IRS and paid them in full, or so I thought. Only later to get another bill, I've gotten so many conflicting bills, I have no idea what they want. They have lost my returns and I've given them copies, I have a 6 inch stack of papers on the tax problem this investment created. Now, I'm getting demands for more money. For many of us, this partnership has destroyed our financial futures.

I only made a $4500 investment that WAS legal tax wise at the time. Should congress be able to pass a law two years later that now is ruining my life? For 18 years I've done all I could to reach closure on this matter. I feel helpless dealing with this out of control, irresponsible, gigantic, terrorist organization.

Would love to participate in class action suite. I suffered extreme mental cruelty, abuse, and harassment. Even went to IRS Taxpayers advocates and settled all penalties and Interest the IRS wanted for 1979 and 1982 (for the third time). This year I'm getting demands for much more money. I can't sleep, can't concentrate on work, they are making my life unbearable. They make me wish morning would never come. I can't find anyone in the IRS that will help. They don't answer their phones, when I do get hold of someone, they can't say why I owe, just that they want more money, I know now it will never end. If this isn't extortion I don't know what is.

I turned myself in on mistakes that I had made on taxes. After dealing with a problems resolution officer who did a very good job, we both thought that I would get a fair deal from the local collections agent. We were wrong. Now, I am at the point of being totally insolvent, 5 employees not including myself are now unemployed. The bank is going to foreclose on all property. After inquiring about the agents neglect, a lien was placed on my property, I filed a 911 hardship with the supervisor, Apr. 13th at 8:30am, the lien was filed Apr 13th at 9:05am. They have taken $9,000 worth of mistakes and increased them to $30,422 and climbing with interest compounded daily. The whole time the foreclosure clock is ticking. In closing I would like to say that I am a small employer who realized his mistakes, tried to make them right, never disputing any of the tax owed. I signed the agreement with the IRS thinking that as long as I upheld my end that everything would be OK. Hell, Timothy McViey got a better deal from the government than I did.

I believe that we need to eliminate state and federal taxes and replace it with a consumption tax. Secondly the media should shed the light on how the IRS abuses and bullies everyday citizens. I too am afraid to speak out on the issue but I have to. The department of treasury (IRS) are very scary. They have tapped my phone lines. They can intercept and read faxes that I send. They have been following me around and video taping me wherever I go for the past 3 years. This is an invasion of my privacy. I did not do anything illegal. But I am afraid that I will get a notice in the mail and that I will be thrown in jail. The IRS has too much power. They can basically go up to anyone they want and seize all their assets. They can throw anyone they want in jail for tax evasion. They can do this even if you have not done anything illegal. If you earn money you should be able to keep it. You should only have to pay a consumption tax when you purchase things. Something has to be done to stop the IRS from seizing peoples assets and throwing innocent people in jail.
