  I thought I was starting to do better on my debts, got a notice from the IRS yesterday saying I missed a 1099c in my 2022 taxes that dictated I owe them 1,600 dollars. Not sure how that could be true, I remember I had paid a few hundred that year, so I’m not sure what went wrong. Not looking forward to figuring it out.

      Sir, you paid more than many billionaires in 2022, and I know you can’t afford food right now, but we are going to need you to pay us $1,600 more. Oh and um, add a couple more years before you’ll receive the money you paid towards social security.

      Nobody goes to prison for most errors. The IRS is made up of average normal every day people trying to do a job. We’re humans. Explain the error, they’ll work with you. Stop spreading fear.

    Just an fyi resend and that number usually goes away. They did the same thing to me for the same year and when questioned they said they just never got the paperwork. Resent and everything was fine.
