[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right there with you, OP. My elderly parents have used a tax preparer for the last few years, which I thought would make the process simpler following one parent's unexpected death earlier this year. I got in touch with the tax preparer at the end of Feb/beginning of March, she sent a checklist, and I brought over the documents on the checklist, which had already been gathered before my parent's death. Thought that was the end of it, but on April 14th the tax preparer sent me on a wild goose chase for two missing 1099s* that, after hours of detective work, turned out not to exist. Got that resolved and then the return was rejected by the IRS. [b]It's like every little thing is so hard and time-consuming[/b]. I'm exhausted.

For those asking, these were 1099-DIV, 1099-INT, etc., not work related.

100%. I have had to start taking days off JUST to work through the long list of phone calls that need to be managed - you never know whether it will be a day's task or a few minutes, what next steps you will need to take. And all of the stuff is vital from medical billing follow-up to tax forms to trying to get bank information etc. I'm drained but there is no one else that can manage this - and yes I do pay for help where and when I can  - but there isn't someone who you can do all of it for them...I hear you OP and PP...I'm exhausted[/quote]
