That's probably true. Stupid, but true. I was actually thinking of someplace like H&R Block, where they 'guarantee' their work- not required by IRS, but just something they say that they do. My dh had them do his taxes one time and they screwed it up- they didnt' pay the additional money that he owed (because he really did owe it) but they payed the interest that accrued over the year before the IRS caught the mistake.

I just wanted to update on this... I think I've gotten everything sorted out. Turns out even though my house went to foreclosure and there was a sheriff's sale, the title is still in my name. I have a redemption period until 5/17/07. So now I am able to get the correct info and send it of to the state. I already have the envelope all stuffed and ready to go into the mail. PHEW!!!!
