      Sir, you paid more than many billionaires in 2022, and I know you can’t afford food right now, but we are going to need you to pay us $1,600 more. Oh and um, add a couple more years before you’ll receive the money you paid towards social security.

      Nobody goes to prison for most errors. The IRS is made up of average normal every day people trying to do a job. Thry clearly jnderstand people make mistakes. Explain the error, they’ll work with you.

      What gets people in trouble is intent. If you intended or intend to do wrong, okay, that’s an issue. But otherwise, stop spreading fear.
