No, I am thinking that if I ammend my 2008 taxes and remove the tax credit, could I then file for the 8K this year. The idea of 500 more (which would cover and IRS charges) and not having to pay it back is pretty cool. That, and I was told that some of the costs of purchaseing/miving/etc could be written off as well. Not sure on that type stuff. I want to try to max out everything I can to clear up this old IRS stuff and have a clear page for the first time in awhile. I had an accountant who did not file my taxes for a couple years and took my "payments" I made to the IRS. I had to refile a bunch of taxes (3 years worth), I lost a bunch of home busines writeoffs because he had the records/reciepts for 12K in stuff, and got hit with a bnch of penalties. In the end it was about 10K total of which all but about 1400 has been paid between the tax credit last year and me.
Re-doing the tax credit is not a huge deal (although not paying it back is awesome), but figuring out exactly what we can write off is a big deal. No mreo accountants for me.
