I would think/hope a phone call would solve this. I am sure the credit, taxes, etc are all automated and if someone misses a payment or taxes, it immediately sends out a notice. @taiwan_girl said in Back Taxes Owed: I would think/hope a phone call would solve this.

This is not uncommon that some situation no one envisioned when the legislation was written forces an agency to act in a way that breeches common sense but the agency has no authority to selectively ignore the law. Our own bill I’ve been pushing is like this though to a less obvious extent. Hopefully congress will fix this.

That's what it takes. Yup. Usually the case. Governement organization (or company, etc.) treats a person bad. Nothing is done. Story gets on the news. Same organization or company suddenly is able to "solve" the problem.

I suspect they’re correct in saying the law doesn’t allow them to make unilateral exceptions to tax penalties except under prescribed circumstances. @jon-nyc said in Back Taxes Owed: I suspect they’re correct in saying the law doesn’t allow them to make unilateral exceptions to tax penalties except under prescribed circumstances. That doesn't exempt them from doing it.
