ERC CLIENT REQUEST and amended returns
View More DetailsSchedule C Client's old CPA did amended returns when outside service processed 941x returns
Client was caught in the delay and old CPA did second amended return because refunds didn't look like they were coming.
IRS had questions and didn't process second 1040x
In mean time IRS took from a 23 refund the amount due on 1st amendment
Now client actually receives 2020 ERC first part of 2025 .
Client wants us to refile the second amendment get a refund for the interest paid and then add the ERC money to the 2025 return as taxpayers can now do
Feels wrong but got any good reason he can't other than just no.

Hi Wendy, is the interest refund going to outweigh the cost of preparing an amended return?
Not quite. And at this point I think the client is mad at any interest paid to the IRS even if it did
I understand the client's frustration. If I were you, I would have no problem filing an amended return because I will invoice the client accordingly for my services. Just be sure the client understands the cost of amending the return in comparison to the interest refund.
