It still smells fishy from here. Setting the statute date from wherever they please, and such.
Makes me think that there must be some petty beauracrat who thinks too highly of himself pushing people around, knowing they won't fight back.[:@]
The major corporations have a regiment of lawyers standing by to fight off these attacks, thats why the IRS has stated that they will concentrate on "the little guy".

Amen to that! In all my years as a business owner, taking every possible deduction, I never was audited. Now that I'm a poor student and single mom, earning poverty level wages and taking the Earned Income Credit, I've been audited twice! My refunds have been held up when I desperately needed the money.
Pick on the poor and defenseless? Yep, that's the policy... while letting millionaires get away with murder because they can fight back in the courts. People like me have no chance of hiring a tax lawyer and fighting arbitrary decisions.
Oh well, brighter days are ahead, I'm sure.
Happy Holidays everybody!
3 audits in ten years of business here. But hey, that's Canada. We have more taxes and are basically a second world economy with a first world perception of itself and rampant consumerism. If the government did not rape everyone at every level, how could the beauracracy sustain itself? Oh, yeah...I feel another audit coming.
My second audit was fun. I was ready for 'em. I asked the GST auditor if they ever let ya know if the auditor shows the government tax office was wrong. She said never happened yet to her knowledge. I said get ready. She cut us a check for 8000.00. (they wanted to take it off our taxes but I said, why not do it the way ya stick it to small business?..I want it all now.)[:)]
