IRS responds - tax issue resolved
Update: Title of the post corrected.
As some of you may recall, earlier this year I was notified by the IRS that they found a problem with my 2005 filing, and that they believed I owed a huge bunch of back taxes. Needless to say, that was not fun.
It was even less fun when I found out that it was due to a bug in TurboTax 2005 - and that the same bug was in TurboTax 2006.
In the end, I submitted a multi-page document, with lots of photocopies of statements, listing my case for why it was a mere mistake (coughcoughTurboTaxcoughcough) and that I didn’t actually owe any money.
Well, the other day I got this notice:

Phew! Boy am I relieved.
That’ll teach me a lesson for not triple checking my return before submitting it.

Dennis… I previously responded to your complaint about feedback and I thought this was addressed. I seem to recall that the problem you were having with URLs not clickable had something to do with Office 2007. And if I’m not mistaken, you should be intimately familiar with Microsoft issues. Furthermore, every interview screen in TurboTax provides you a “Submit Feedback” link.
As for your “bug”, please send me details so I can verify or disprove your claim. You have my email address so there should be no claim that it’s difficult to contact Intuit.
Thanks,
Bob Meighan
VP, TurboTax
