Well, well, well, did you LIE to your tax preparer? Did you?

Gal who told me her doctor boss provided her health insurance (ok sounds reasonable) just came in with a letter from IRS: “Where’s your Form 8962, you got the PTC, so give your beautiful tax preparer your Form 1095-A and quit being liar."   ISTG that’s what the letter says.  Pretty much.

And you know what'll happen?  She'll probably get EVEN MORE PTC...

I am glad you didn't prepare her taxes otherwise you would have to deal with it. Good advice though.

Haha I get it.

Repeat lies:

1)  It's the same as last year.

2)  That can't be right.  I didn't make any money.

3)  I use it 100% for business purposes.

4)  My yard sale crap is worth thousands.

5)  Tuition is killing me.  (Made 3k in excess scholarships.  I wish I could get killed like that.)

"I broke even on my business."

"I am doing this for a business, not as a hobby."

"I'll be in tomorrow to pay my bill."

My favorite - "I forgot my checkbook."

Reminds me of the gal about 20 years ago who wanted to deduct a new new pair of underwear every day. Said she was a nurse and her hospital employer required it. I told her that just because it was required (which I didn't believe for a minute) it still was not deductible. It had to be specialized clothing not suitable for street wear to be deductible. She assured me it was a special cotton underwear just for nurses. I still didn't buy it. We both agreed it would be better for her to find another preparer.

Sadly, her ex informed me a few weeks later that she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She died soon thereafter.

OK, JJ, we can't "like" your post with the last sentence there.  I still love your hair, though.

That last one is one reason Catherine and I have Smith and Wesson.  Just kidding.

Can you imagine a combination of Rita and Catherine....Rita's passion and desire to "cause harm" with Catherine's deadly accuracy?  There isn't enough pasture in Texas to keep all the bodies.

Silly Tom!  Just *knowing* about the two of us totally stops any need for pasturage acres.
