Has anyone ever tried putting the US Government as a dependent?
Cause they are, you know...
You do that... and let us know how it works out for you.

WHOA! Maybe they knew you would come on NS and post this, so they could say "see? We do fix things sometimes".

Weird. Maybe she was new on the job. :?
:lol: Ugh, I just have to file the simplest of income tax returns and it's extremely complicated.

they just try to scare the crap out of you so you wont even try to do it yourself. they must be in cahoots with hr block
The IRS is nothing compared the Australian Tax Office, if you are over 14year and 9months you can work but don't have to pay taxes. But instead of just not charging these people taxes they deudct the tax and then offer them an opportunity to file for a 100% refund, assuming 14 year olds know how to fill out a tax return.

Remember you can ammend a tax return for up to 3 years back so you can get more money(just makes certain it is in your favor).
