I'm not sure I would be giving out tax advice. I've been on the IRS audit list for 25 years (a former employer had a friend at the IRS and when he was canned, he reported every one of his subordinates to his friend out of vengeance; my first audit was from his friend in New Jersey; I live in California). They've never found anything, because there's nothing to find. But, believe me, it's a pain in the arse. You don't want to be on that list. Year after year after year.
