I have gotten a notice from the IRS asking me to file a 2006 tax return I was displaced from my home by a flood and the notice, which now threatens penalties, is past due. what action(s) do you suggest?

Hire a reputable tax lawyer or tax accountant who can work on your behalf without divulging your identity to the IRS. They can meet with IRS representatives and plead your case, determine the course of action that is in your best interest (possibly reducing or avoiding penalties), negotiate a settlement, and the IRS will not know that they are dealing with you. Then your tax consultant can file the negotiated return on your behalf.

IRS waited 2 years to take back your child tax credit because your husband did not report his social security retirement benefit Even though IRS instructed us not to include it on the 1040?

At best you may be able to avoid the interst and penalties if you received this advice in writing, but my bet is that you do not have it inwritting. My thought is that you do not have to report certain amounts of social security income up to x amounts considering all aspects of income. By IRS rules they may also waive penalty and interest if you received erroneous verbal advice from the IRS. But, I'm not sure how you would prove this to them.


Why does the IRS impose 2290 penalties?

The IRS imposes penalties related to Form 2290 to ensure compliance with tax laws and regulations regarding the Heavy Highway Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT). Penalties serve as a deterrent and encourage taxpayers to fulfill their tax obligations in a timely and accurate manner. By imposing penalties, the IRS aims to enforce fairness in the tax system and discourage fraudulent activities or negligent behavior. Penalties may be imposed for late filing, late payment, underpayment or inaccurate reporting, fraud or negligence, and failure to correct errors on Form 2290. These penalties help maintain the integrity of the tax collection process and promote accountability among taxpayers.
