I had a new client referred to me by one of my existing clients. She came to me legally separated with a restraining order of no contact with her spouse. She wanted to claim HOH so I did. The tax return is under review since March 5th, I assume because of the filing status change and her husband has not filed a return.

They came to me yesterday saying, we are back together and want to amend our return and file MFJ. Wow right. The IRS notice says do nothing for 60 days while we are reviewing the return. My gut says just wait and do nothing. THOUGHTS
