Sorry to tell you, but he screwed you once while he was around, and now he's going to screw you after he's not around. Unfortunately all you can do is report him to the IRS and also his state society (if he's a CPA), but paying the bill to the IRS is your responsibility. It's your return, so it's your responsibility to make sure it's correct. I know you trusted him, but if you all of a sudden get a massive refund through a new tax preparer and it's a lot more than you previously got, and your financial situation has not changed, that should have made you suspicious about the tax return. It's people like that preparer that give the rest of us a black eye.

Get a tax attorney, they are not that much, and tell the IRS what happened.

You need a CPA or Tax Attorney to help you out.

Do you have a Bank or Credit Union Account?

Talk to the Bank or Credit Union Manager for a referral to a Competent Professional who has been in business for 10 or more years.

You accepted this big refund and split it with the crooked preparer. You will have a hard time convincing the IRS that you were not complicit in this fraud.

You will have to pay back the entire refund. Your best outcome would be to convince the IRS that you were a victim and have the fraud surcharges dropped.

Years ago my husband and I were dupped by a CPA, big
time, Tho. not same as your sisuation, It certainly leaves a thorn in your side. I would certainly make IRS alerted by this
person and report him to have his license revoked.

I have never in my life heard of any one charging 1/2 of your
return! But we must read our tax returns before we sign them.
and I certainly would not go to some one I did not meet face to face, before and after paper work.

Wonderful. You managed to find a real sleaze of a preparer. He did several illegal things here - filing a falsified return, filing it without your signature, and basing his fee on your refund.

Talk to the IRS people. If this return was really filed without your knowledge and signature, you might be able to avoid penalties. You'll still have to pay back any amount you got that you weren't entitled to, plus interest. Sorry - it wasn't your money legally, so you have to give it back.

Sh It! I would call the IRS and try to explain that to him. because your CPA is held Liable for any negligence. but I am not sure about proving that and all other things. So see what the IRS says.
Remember you can NOT cheat the IRS! even if you're not trying to. I am pretty sure you have to sign your own tax return though. So maybe that's why they are doing an audit.

I would even consult with another accountant they will have some solution for you


kate
You have to tell the auditor and hope he believes your story . . .

Ain't nothing else us little people can do . . .
You done bit the big one !

I am an enrolled agent licensed by the US Treasury Department, if you had come to me, I would have quoted you a flat fee and prepared a return for you showing the lowest tax I could legitimately come up with. As a practitioner regulated by IRS, I could not, legally or ethically base my fee for preparation of an original on the amount of your refund. Other enrolled agents, CPAs and tax attorneys are bound by the same rules.

If your preparer is regulated in any way as they are in my state, California, there may some kind of recourse through whatever agency issued this person's license.
