Im here....just overwhelmed
Ok. I really appriciate your responces! I like the one that is so cut and dry. Why won't it fly? Maybe I should just get an attourney, someone who will also represent me with the IRS.
We know the organizer at the foundation. My son and the young lady who organized the event are dating. They know we were the winners of the car and my son had put his name on the ticket (even though we paid and asked him to buy it). That is water under the bridge. The foundation called and said they needed the phone number of the person who got the car? We provided that number to the foundation. When they called, he would not give his information to them and he told them the dealer had it. So they called the dealer (whom they have a relationship with). The dealer provided the number. When he received the 1099 in the mail he had a fit. And treatened to start litigation against them. The CFO of the foundation called my son (with the number provided by the girlfriend). The CFO said we had to take the 1099. She did agree to put it in our name instead of his. We have aggreed to accept the 1099 to ease the situation.
It sounds like we will have to claim both the 53,000.00 and the 30,000.00.
Can anyone summerize for me?
We were going to do our taxes this year on our own, but I think that is now out. We need a good tax man!!!
Thanks!
