Please direct me to where I can learn how to 1) establish record-forming through a federal evidence repository, and 2) perform R4C.
A little about my personal situation:
I am being asked by the IRS to file a return for 2010, for which I initially filed for an extension, and then nothing else. They have given me a deadline of April 22, though I am told by a phone agent that I may be able to get that extended.
An IRS wage and income transcript for 2010 shows 3 W-2s, 2 1099-DIVs, 1 1099-MISC, and 1 1098-E student loan statement.
If pressed like I'm now being, I had previously planned to file CtC-educated (Form 4852 rebuttal of W-2s and "corrected" 1099s). Now, however, I am questioning taking that path based on Pete's incarceration, and what others have said about Form 4852 raising big red flags / inviting frivolous penalties (now or later), and so forth.
Unfortunately, I only started redeeming checks for lawful money this year.
Brain trust words of experience, guidance, and wisdom much appreciated. Thank you.
