We are raising our grandchildren for the last 5 years and this year we are being audited. How will we know if we are going to get the rest of the income tax back or not?
If you're being audited, I'm afraid there's usually no quick resolution to the process. It will depend on the workload of the auditor, the number of areas on your return he/she is looking at, and the amount of documentation you'll need to assemble. There's no way to say how long.
If you have the TurboTax audit defense, then use them; that's what you payed for. If you don't have the audit defense, then I would recommend engaging a local tax pro in your area.
