Death and Taxes 0
What happens when someone makes a typo that results in the SSA or the IRS deciding that you are dead?
Sally Parsons can tell you. A snippet:
Her saving grace is a 2013 apology letter from the Social Security Administration, which reads: “Our records incorrectly showed you as deceased. However, we have since found that you are alive.”
In the last year, she tried to refinance her home but underwriters told her she was dead. She can’t get rebates for the solar panels she installed on her house. She didn’t receive any stimulus checks, and she paid her taxes but didn’t receive any tax refund.
