After you file

One would hope, but I have five letters from people at IRS, two with the title "Director," saying the three wildly contradictory CP2000s that we received for 2016 are wrong - they even sent a tiny additional refund, but the computers grind on, forcing me to sue.  They tell me they have no control over the computers ("autonomous") or the IRS lawyers.  I even have a CP21B that says we owe nothing.  But trial is set for October 26, 2020.  To top it, the Statutory Notice of Deficiency was issued three years and 41 days after we mailed our 2016 return, so they can't assess.  The SNOD stayed the three years AFTER it had run. Poor folks at IRS are stuck with "legacy" hardware and software and budget cut after budget cut.  Then Congress and the Administration dumps the COVID payment distribution on them like an anchor thrown to someone drowning.  This will not end well.
