I have a client who just got a notice from the IRS for underreported income for 2022. The brokerage 1099-B was for a joint account. However, he and his wife divorced during the year. So I reported half of the dividends, interest, and capital gains on each 1040 return. Same with K-1s from a limited partnership. I clearly marked (50%) on the Schedule B on each tax return. What's the best way to respond to the IRS? Is there a better way that it should have been reported so he didn't get stuck with all the taxes on the income? I use ProSeries Basic.
