No, you can't sue over this. What would be the point? You should have made sure you got a copy when you signed the documents. Send her a certified letter giving her 30 days to produce copies of the documents. If she didn't keep any, she can't help you. You can get a photocopy from the tax office.

You should already have a copy of yuor info, since you have a copy of your w-2's. If you gave them to the friend then you screwed up, you can only sue if you paid fo rthe service. that would mean you have a receipt for that service as well. you would also have to call the IR and state tax board for where you live and ask for your tax infomation as ell to prove that you even filed. Good Luck

People who have "a "freind" whos sister did my taxes" get what they pay for! Those people also get audited rather frequently. Next year try using a tax professional. They are bonded in most states.

do not hear to Motorhead. The IRS can certainly penalize you for what your tax preparer did for the easy reason which you in addition to mght signed the tax return. Preparers have not got go through the implications for a tax return that they incorrectly arranged. it is your accountability to be certain your tax preparer has adequate awareness and journey with the federal and state (if acceptable) tax rules. you may certainly sue them in small claims court docket if what you're asserting is actual, yet submit to in techniques, you will desire to be easily particular you may show information of your declare. in case you may not show information of your declare i might strongly advise speaking to a tax criminal expert, enrolled agent, or CPA for help.

Sure, anyone can sue for anything they wish -- this is America after all! Collecting anything is an entirely different matter, however. At best you're only entitled to your actual damages. Since it costs $39.00 to get a copy of your return from the IRS, that's pretty much the limit of what you could recover.
If you want to sue someone for $39.00, knock yourself out. Me, I'd rather go fishing.
