My 1099 SSA is OVER in BOX 5.
Box 3 - most of the figures are DOUBLED except for my Part B withheld.
SSA states they sent me an initial check that I never got. Apparently they sent it to my deceased father's bank account which was closed. I never ever gave them this bank account number. Months and months later, I got the check. So now the SSA is doubling the amount I was paid, yet that I returned 66,000. So this doubling has created all of the amounts to be doubled in BOX 3. When I calculate, the amounts are not even doubled. Most are more than doubled. I need that correct backpay for the last 3 years to determine if I'm better off to amend the last 3 years taxes. Even the lawyers fee is doubled in BOX 3. I have a correct copy of their payment. I have the correct amounts from the SSA in letters to me, explaining all the pay, what I received for each year and dates. The IRS tax advocate and my CPA cannot do anything until I get the correct 1099. The IRS cannot help in getting the correct 1099. I've opened a Congressional Inquiry and they are reluctant now-not following up. Its been more than 30 days. In the meantime, I will be responsible for massive penalties on taxes owed. I'm beside myself. Losing sleep. What can I do?
