So Tax season is over and you are still waiting for your tax refund? For the most part, Refund are held up because you forgot to include a W-2 or a 1099. They are verifying your dependent or they’re verifying your income.
If you are a Self-Employed individual and you have a schedule C they may also be verifying that portion of it. So what do you do next?
First and foremost DID YOU SELF PREPARE OR DID YOU HAVE A PAID PREPARER?
If you self prepared respond to the letter that you received. If they need additional information, it will say so directly on the letter, it will indicate whether or not to file an amendment . It will tell you on the letter (CPE notice) exactly what they need from you
If you had a paid preparer do your return reach out to them. They should be able to help you, especially if there are things on your return that you do not recognize. DO NOT LET THEM AMEND YOUR RETURN UNLESS THE NOTICE EXPRESSLY SAYS TO DO SO.
If you believe that, there are things on your return that are not supposed to be such as a schedule, C self-employment that you do not have then you should amend your return. And resend it. You may wind up all taxes, but you will owe a lot less this way than if you just let it go without responding.
