OK folks, now we're really getting down the the (H) stressors.
I have know we have had some tax (IRS) issues, and that we have a CPA and Tax Attorney working on our "stuff" for some time. We are not an easy return. H and I have owned (and still own) our own companies, we have "interests" in a few other business dealings, etc... I have done the homework requested by the Tax Attorney to get through our "stuff."
H made an appointment for me with our Tax Attorney last week. The meeting was tough, but it didn't really sink in until this afternoon while I was doing more homework for him (providing ssn's of kids, years we can claim D18, etc...). Funny, I heard the Tax Attorney's words, but didn't really digest them.
Apparently, we have a MAJOR (like Donald Trump could only pay) tax liability. They've (CPA and Tax Attorney) have been working on this for a year and a half (about the exact time as I got the bomb). They're nearing the end of their work on our "stuff" and some decisions need to be made regarding the reporting/dispersing, etc... So, Tax Attorney explained it to me, and thankfully, I took notes.
I've done all I can to help with this situation. I haven't done anything with numbers, money, checking accounts, etc... That's always been my H's job, and we BOTH agreed he would handle financial stuff since I'm so bad at it. I handle a LOT of our other responsibilities.
So, I need to digest this. I need to understand what these "choices" really mean to me/us.
