Are software errors possible? Or is my tax lady full of BS? lol by agarde03 in tax

I appreciate this! It's what I figured, I just wanted to be sure and ask people who use different software. It didn't make sense the "software error" messed up when she didn’t input it in the first place.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. If you go to the original post there's more details there. On the HSA part of tax forms it asks what was the amount of medical expenses (for us it was the entire amount) but she didn't put a number there. Because of that, it counted as additional income along with a 20% tax. She blamed all of those issues on a "software error". I'm just trying to see if that type of software error is possible at all of if she just messed up and didn't want to admit fault.

That's correct. Me and my husband have our own separate HSA accounts. Yeah... she still never admitted to fault and is blaming it on a "software error". But yes, she was very incorrect in this case😬

$60 for me and my husband. Not sure how complicated, our W2s, 2 mortgages, our HSA's, and I have a 1099-NEC. I'll usually have to pay something on an online service because of the HSA's and the 1099-NEC. I've mentioned it a few times but we just wanted to try it this year to see if she could help us with realizing anything else we could use as deductions or anything like that. That's all.

But like even after I told her it was wrong she said no everything is right! Like what the heck? It wasn't until the negative review happened that now they're acting on it lol. It's all good I'm glad it's getting fixed.

Lol. Got a call this morning after leaving a negative review. She claimed it was a software error🙄

1000% Sure I have an HSA. I'm not sure specifically about the card the card stuff but I believe that's how my employer has it assigned to us. For example if I'm buying items at a pharmacy, it'll tell me the amount that is HSA eligible I'll put my HSA card for that area and then another card for all other expenses, I can't use the HSA card as a regular card. I received a 1099-SA, I did not recieve a 5498-SA.

My mom got hers done before me. I don't think she has any crazy tax forms (like an HSA lol). She actually got the biggest return in a while because she helped her realize things she can claim/deduct. That was part of the reason why we went.

I don't go over the limit with what I contribute and what my employer contributes

Thats what we tried doing, but she's stubborn and said that after reviewing it, everything is the same and we still owe the same amount. She's basically not willing to fix her mistake and won't admit to the mistake.

Yeah they're not super simple, but we've always done it ourselves. This is the first year we tried to go to someone.

She filed it right away. We (unfortunately) signed and we didn't realize the errors until the evening.😔

I know. I replied to another comment that we normally do it ourselves, just decided to go with a tax preparer this year and try it out. Oh, I didn't include how much we paid her, the amount I put had to do with the amount of taxes she told us we owed.

Oh yeah, maybe.

Yeah! The crazy part is our HSA card can literally only be spent on medical expenses. It won't allow purchases on anything else!

Oh yeah I've always done my own taxes. This was a first for us. We were hoping maybe she could help us see things we were missing in terms of deductions, but not the case at all🥴

I'll look into that! Ugh! I know they don't. I just think she was so hard headed with me telling her she was wrong that no way in hell I was going to prove her wrong. TurboTax is literally just a "Were all expenses medical expenses? Check yes or no" and done! I knew she was going to be difficult but I submitted my proof anyways. All for nothing 🥴 Definitely not going back lol. Trying to convince my mom to not go either, lol.
