Taxpayer filed 2021 taxes with 166,764 w2g income and 25,678 in losses owing $33,000.
Taxpayer wants to amend their 2021 taxes and write off everything that they won because they lost everything, and they are a "compulsive gambling addict" and stated they "put back in what they won."
The reason $25,678 was written off was because they provided one win loss statement and not all of them as "some casinos won't give them to them"
Should this return get amended if they can't prove the losses to the tax return preparer or does one amend it anyway and they will have to prove it to the IRS, and I am supposed to take their word....
