I got a notice in June 2006 saying that my Federal Income Tax for 2004 was incorrect and I owed money. I've been using the EZ form for 12 years, do it all myself and have never had a problem. I didn't think I did anything wrong but I had to prove it. I had made copies of what I sent in. But, right around the time I filed, I moved and couldn't find the 2004 forms anywhere. I requested transcripts but they didn't come in time. So, I thought I'd just pay it and get it over with. Today, I just got a certified letter from my State Dept of Taxation saying that I owe them money too. Back in June, it didn't cross my mind that the amount on Fed tax was going to change the amount on my State tax. I now have the 2004 transcripts & found the original forms I filed. By sending in the money to the Fed tax, I admitted that I made a mistake, even though it's not actually true. Can I prove to the State that I don't owe money, or is it too late & I have to pay it? I have less than 60 days to dispute.
