DH just found out his money markets were frozen by the IRS. In 2003 he owned a business in NJ with two partners. That same year, he found out one partner was stealing off the top. The business closed and they went to court. The partner that was stealing bought the assets in the company from DH and the other partner. A settlement was reached and DH recieves a monthly deposit from the "stealer". Now the IRS says that in 2003 the taxes for the business were filed in DH's name. One problem, DH never filed or signed those taxes. Now he has to go to a "hearing" with the IRS to settle on the amount. My question is #1, since the IRS already froze his money markets, does this mean a judgement of some sort was already entered and showing on his credit report? we are currently waiting for the free reports to be delivered....and #2, if anyone knows tax law, was that other partner allowed to file the taxes for the business in DH's name? Thanks a lot!!!!!
