What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Washington
Toward the end of 2008, my retirement fund sent several of my withdrawals to another bank where I do not have an account. Sometime in January, 2009, the fund discovered its errors and sent the money to my correct account. However, the fund wants to report (on the 1099 form) that it sent the money in 2008. In essence, it wants to lie to the IRS, wants me to lie to the IRS and pay taxes on money I never received in the tax year, and wants to put me in a higher tax bracket.
Is this not tax fraud and is this not subornation of fraud by the retirement fund? Or am I just a drama queen and should go along with this process because nobody really cares?
Thanks.
