Thank you for the response. That’s a good point. How can I find out if a 1099C was filed, call the IRS? Knowing the father, he probably did file it. We did contact him through a lawyer to tell him to retract the 1099C, and if he did not, we would be reporting it to the IRS as a fraudulent 1099C. He responded in writing and refused to retract it. We have written support to support our claim that it’s fraudulent. We just need to know how to report it in TurboTax, so that the income is not reflected as income. We will report the fraudulent 1099C with an explanation of why it’s fraudulent and that they refused to retract it, with support. I think the IRS does the rest of the work from there.
