Isabel… ARE you dead??
I know it’s been a rough tax season. Would you even know?

isabelgoldberg.bsky.social•60 days ago

I certainly feel like the living dead. At least it would give my clients reasonable cause…

And you still have two more weeks of agony left... 😱

But it let me slow down enough to avoid getting too sick - so I’ll call it a good trade off

Oh, did you try extending via the DirectPay extension loophole? Or are you paper-filing it.

If this turns out to be connected to the recent SSA death master file shenanigans in any way -- rather than an IRS cock-up -- you have a posse on there ready to @ DOGE and its supposed administrator.

Is there a way where it would not be affiliated with the SSA database?

isabelgoldberg.bsky.social•59 days ago

That’s the only way I am aware of it happening in the past, but these days?

Also, I would write your federal representative about your issue. Make them fix it for free.

My client said must be all the current meddling with the system and gave up.
