Uncertain feeling about irs return tax person and my section8

Blanca Cortes
Posted

I'm a Section 8 tenant I got a person to do my taxes I did the non-filers when the first stimulus was announced I filed it twice and certain I messed up.  I got my stimulus  for 1700 second for 1400 then the 3rd 2800 and the lady who did my taxes said she would give me the best returns we filed February 2nd of this year I still haven't gotten anything it says still processing she said the amount that I was going to receive was 6978 she charges 10 cent she said said she get 700 after everything was done I said that's impossible .she said that's was she guaranteed the most payout... at the time I had told her I would be happy if she just get my the stimulus return from my oldest that I didn't recive and if she could fix my taxes because I didnt know what i was doing... never worked more than 3 months at a job and never had filed before all this... and she said all she needed was my ssn  my kids my dob full names and kids and if I gotten my first stimulus check. That she charge me ten percent at the end of that so I said sounds fair.

know I'm concerned if theres something wrong with this and if this will affect my section 8 and if this could be bigger than I realized. 

my friend said something doesnt sound right so I'm here.

I agree with Nathan.  Next time call a business and ask how much they charge.  It should be a set amount, not a percent of your return.  If you are lower income, they often have places you can go that will do it for free.
