Question: if one is being audited by the state, does the state also notify the irs?

the lady who does my parents’ taxes is being criminally investigated for fraud. because of this, the state is auditing their taxes, along with all her other clients. because of the nature of this investigation, will the state eventually notify the irs, leaving them (my parents and her other clients) open to be audited federally?

Answer: State and Federal authorities frequently exchange notes so they should plan on it. Most states base the state tax liability on the Federal return as a starting point so any changes will have to be reported to the IRS as well.

Question: My ex boyfriend, whom I lived with briefly, forged my signature on a joint tax return for “06″ and “07″ what .

will the feds do to him? The thing is, he signed my name with my maiden name, but didn’t even use the correct spelling. I am on disability, and filed for tax stimulis, then I get served with his $2,500.00 debt from his taxes. Apparently he was audited. I have been working with the IRS advocite on this as my rebate would have gone towards his debt. They wanted a hand writting analisis, and the signature didn’t even come close. And what makes it even more unblievable is that I have not used my maiden name at all for 20 + years. And in 2006 I had just met him, and he is a federal employee for the postal service. I just can’t believe de did this. My case is now being investigated by the IRS in Texas. They have frozen my stimulis check until the investigation is finished, which could take up to
60 days. Sorry this is so wordy, my question is this…what will the IRS do to him when they found out he forged my signature? I positvely DID not sign any tax document with him! EVER!
Thank you

Answer: So…your ex-boyfriend claimed you were common law married.

When the IRS agrees with you that you are innocent, they will change the tax returns for 2006 and 2007 to single. He will lose the benefits he got for claiming you ($8750 less of taxable income in 2007) and his income tax will increase (at least another $1300-2200 for 2007). This will get a fraud penalty, late payment penalties, interest etc.

As a federal employee, he should lose his job. The standard may not be as high for a post office employee as it is for the IRS, but this is theft!
