My taxes and welcome to them.
Today is the 24th of May. Over a month after normal people have filed their taxes. I have not.
For the first time in the last 5 or 6 years, I thought I was going to get my taxes done on time and might even get a refund. However, due to my former employers thoughtfulness, I am still trying to get my W2 correct.
Best I can tell, Turbochargers.com and it’s owner David Rafes, decided to withhold taxes from my checks, but only pay about half of that money to the IRS/SS/Medicare/etc. Instead I ended up with a 1099 and a W2. Both for roughly half of my total income from.
Undoubtedly, this is his way of screwing me and at the same time, saving himself $1000′s of dollars in taxes. He claims that the computer records were lost. His own accountant suggested that I just deduct the withholdings as “an expense.” Sounds like the fail to me. I offered to provide copies of all of my paystubs. They ignored this idea.
I have filed a complaint with the IRS, and I will continue to press this issue as long as possible.
From: Ann McKenzie <ann.mckenzie@sbcglobal.net> Subject: update To: Sean Newton Sean, I went to turbo yesterday. David took every document related to all payments to all parties down to TWC and they reissued the wages for all, grossing them back to gross pay. David does not want to reissue anything not that the TWC is done. I recommend reporting the W-2 and 1099 income as issued to you and counting the taxes withheld (and employers portion ) as an expense so you can be done with the return. Ann M.

Perfect advice. FAIL.
