INNOCENT SPOUSE RELIEF--just because you presumed to wear white at your wedding does not mean you qualify


Heinz, the Baron Krauss von Espy, whose day job involves tax law (Baron's gotta eat) shared his wisdom on the intricacies of the Innocent Spouse Relief Act:

"being an attractive woman is a handicap here. You may have hoodwinked some local judge, but the Service can be very hard nosed. Moreover, your auditor knows that the more issues, questions and adjustments he finds, the more time you'll be forced to spend in his presence, thereby increasing the duration of his fantasy life in a liner manner (in some cases exponential). Prior post on courtroom attire apply doubly here! On the other hand, if you're tired of fighting through your life and interested in living it, IRS agents make excellent second husbands. They have a steady job with reasonable hours and good vacation and benefits, and beneath that nerdy exterior they're often genuinely nice people (good father material). Just ask Maggie Gyllenhal's character in "Stranger than Fiction.""
