Re: Disability penison
I have handled a similar situation for a retired NYPD officer in the past. It may be possible to handle this situation rather quickly especially if you still have time on the 30 day letter. The IRS definitely can't do anything they want. The longer you wait though, the harder your situation is to take care of. The way to resolve the case is to prove to the IRS that the pension is not taxable. Case closed!
Re: Disability penison
The good news is that the IRS can not do what they want. If you do not owe it, then you do not have to pay it. The IRS makes mistakes all the time. When we show them they are wrong, they correct it. The trick is to go through the proper channels or they will ignore you. I can help. Call me at 3056821118 or 18002191118. Steve Klitzner. Miami.
