I owe back taxes for 2004 year. And when trying to make an agreement with the irs I was told that I also owe for employment for 2007 in another part of the state for child care provider checks.
This is my story.....
A few months prior to filing my bankruptcy I went to the irs to file a late tax year, and was told by them that during 2007 and up until june 2008 they show that I have been receiving money from the state for employment. They gave me a printout and it was paid to someone in carbondale, il. I currently stay in the chicago area, and have been a truck driver for almost 2 years straight over the road. She told me to contact the states attorney to dispute the income. There was not one penny of taxes taken out of the income, and she estimated that I would owe 3,000 for self employment tax.
Just to give u alittle background info. I used to go to school in carbondale, Il. I moved back to chicago almost 4 years ago. But a close friend of mine still stays there, actually she stays 3 houses down from the address reported to me from the irs. I contacted her and im a pretty straight forward person, this friend of mine is like a sister to me. I didnt ask any questions, i told her what they told me, and after doing some research I found out that it was a child care provider check that she has been receiving. It was very hard for me to try and overlook the circumstances. But i told her to stop the check, and that she must pay for the taxes and I wanted a copy of proof that she had sent the check and proof that it had been cashed by them when she received it.
This all happened in june of 2008. All I asked her to do was send in the money owed for 2008, and next year in 2009 i would get the info from the irs (since i didnt trust her) as to how much was owed for tax year 2008. She said she would use her student loan in august to pay for the taxes and she would stop the check. A month or two later she stated she now put her child in child care and that she had paid the taxes. I contacted the irs in november no check had been received. I contacted her and not only did she not remember when she was supposed to have sent the check, she stated she would provide me with proof that she had paid. The next day i got a phone call from an automated system for child care providers. I asked her if she was still receiving the check in my name she stated yes.
So as u know, Im ticked, i have slowly and surely stopped talking to her, altogether. The only reason i stayed in contact with her is basically hope, that my friend would actually do right. And bc I love her children. She gets a lot of money from the state, Child care, Medical card, section 8 and thats not including the 10,000 a year she gets from student loans, she gets almost 8,000 for taxes back, and I pay high taxes bc i dont have kids, almost 6 to 9 thousand dollars a year in taxes. It ticks me off to see someone so greedy mess me over after all that I have done for her. And to get a second chance and not only lie to me again, but also not try to make things right. And if you are wondering how she was able to defraud the system to get the checks:
I used to live with her and most of my info was on her computer, she signed the forms, she received the checks and signed for them, and now she is getting the checks direct deposited into her bank account. I decided in june if she continued to lie to me, and not pay the taxes that by the end of the year i would proceed with a police report, and report to social security of my identity theft situation.
What would you do? Or have u been in this situation? I already owe my own debt, and am trying to still clear up my credit after my bankruptcy this year. Now i owe for someone elses mistakes. I currently have a tax lien, the last thing i need in life is another debt.
