Follow up on Tax Examination

Good news: On Friday, I received a call from the Revenue Agent, telling me that my 2017 tax return was basically OK; there were minor discrepancies, but less than $300, so they weren’t demanding more money from me. This was good news; incidentally, I recall reading of cases of the IRS demanding substantial amounts of money from people or seizing their property because of alleged tiny errors, but perhaps these are rare abuses, or perhaps the Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights has done some real good.
