It's Starting....

I have a client who received a letter today (dated April 18, they sure get faster mail service than I do this year) .

Letter says Refundable child tax credit was wrong by $1,479.

Opened pro-Series and it does not show any change since filing, still shows the original amounts. (Which do all look correct to me.)

I do have the 6419 letters and they were entered correctly.

This client did stop the payments (Spouse after 1 payment, taxpayer after 2) perhaps the IRS messed that up.

I am just wondering if anyone else has seen these notices starting up

Ok. There was a minor error on the 8812 (transposition on inputting the advance amount received) of about $ 36. Client owed. The amount billed in the IRS notice was the Original amount of payment due (only due today) plus the error mount plus $ .49 interest. (Of course there shouldn't be any interest as nothing is late yet.)

Only took a couple of hour's to figure out what they were doing. At least I had nothing else to do today. HA HA.

child CARE credit or child TAX credit?

Oh Heck - typing too fast on Tax Day...Child Tax Credit not child care credit.

I usually don't have to deal with screwed up IRS notices for another few months.

And of course what ever letter I put together will just go in a pile somewhere.....(I can't see spending that much time on hold to try to call)

Im figuring those that opted out or even worse, mailed the payment back to IRS, are going to deal with some fall out.
