I have yet to file for 2000 income taxes as a result of a bitter divorce, and inability to obtain Ex's return so I could determine what deductions she took (still married, but separated mid yr).
After a formal demand for documentation to get her return, I am soon to file, having a significant tax bill due, likely with penalties and interest. The bill was especially high, as Ex still did not produce receipts for rental expenses, etc, which would have helped with tax due.
In addition, she filed incorrectly, using an attorney/CPA, not claiming 1/2 my income (community) while together for that yr. We filed correctly, paying close attention to detail and documenting the splits.
What will happen after I file? What if I can't pay the tax bill due? Any relief from penalties and interest?
