(should I guess which one triggered your post?)

 ABC, which post was it? Inquiring minds want to know👍😉

"you would think some of these were people with out the most basic tax knowledge"

And you would be right.

👍 Jeff... There is a way to leave thumbs down.. Just like this👎👎👎

"Sheesh, you would think some of these were people with out the most basic tax knowledge"

Silly you.  You don't need tax knowledge to prepare tax returns.  You just need to go to Craigslist and dump a couple of used toasters, 4 bald  tires, and a slightly used recliner (we had to get rid of it after grandpa died in it) to have enough cash to buy some tax software.

Iron Man, was Grandpa's imprint in that recliner from sitting in it so much...😄😉👍

There are a lot that would qualify.

Actually there was no particular question, just a little musing, while perusing some of the repetitive questions, apparently I reached a tipping point, and actually typed some of my thoughts.

Oh Goody! Look another question about "Why am I seeing changes after my returns have been accepted"...lol

@IRonMaN 

I know where you got those toasters.  You opened a new IRA account every year because the now-defunct S&L would give you another free one.  You're the guy now with eight 1099-R's.

I just looked it up -- IRS charges $185 for the EA exam and $67 for annual renewal.  What if, instead, IRS paid tax preparers $250 to pass a test of basic skills?  We're spending $60 million a week to shelter unaccompanied minors at the border.  Is that why there's nothing left over for tax administration?

We must be in the Alps with the sound of music... Because that is the NeverEnding Echo...

Another one just popped up on the top of the list....

Got to keep looking at the titles as they come up. Got to hang around here to get a laugh once in a while, cause the work is no laughing matter this year.

Jeff they say that laughing is good medicine... And after this tax season we need a lot of laughter...

"Got to hang around here to get a laugh once in a while, cause the work is no laughing matter this year."

Every year there's always one that rises to the top.

I'll let the folks who were here at the time tell you about the "gaurd dog."

Or 'what is under 24', or 'puce' or the GOAT=  the Troll Party !

The posts regarding the RRC changes to returns that were efiled/accepted make me crazy.  Especially when people believe IRS snuck in overnight and made the change. 

  It makes me my head hurt more than my second vaccine shot did.

"It makes me head hurt more than my second vaccine shot did."

Well, see, that's the issue; you are not supposed to get it in the head.
