Oh OK.


I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a W-2 family taking the standard deduction getting a 90 day review. It must be so rare that I don’t even know if the Service pays interest on the 90 days of withheld refund. I’ve done about 5 minutes of research and cant find anything. They will charge you if you underreported, but in my shirt 5 minute search can’t find the opposite answer.

I paid them this year. But if I was owed I would look it up further. If it’s a no, this is their new strategy. Keep 3 months of refunds to save the interest.

I loathe the IRS, but this seems really strange. Usually they pay interest just like we do. Just didn’t find anything on point. It’s a strange situation.

Mike Johnson probably wants the money to send to Ukraine.

Just reading between the lines and listening to all the bitching I think there were issues with the IRS this year with returns. I've heard a lot of random people bitching about this (IRL and on social media). It's not a defense of the IRS, but this is a different universe than a potential audit.

I don't even know how you could audit a W2/standard deduction scenario other than verifying inputs on the W2 were done correctly and the software calculated the deduction correctly

Same here.

They will. They have 21 days I believe before that click starts ticking. And they will 1099 you.
