    I got paid. They sent me 50% more than i asked for. I also had to amend for a mistake on our end. I sent the 50% back and when I call for an update they say my case is a complete mess and have no clue how they will even figure it out. Meanwhile I’ve kept the monies in a checking account untouched. I’ve also had to send back requested money from them and then they sent me another additional check for no reason. Theo issue is the interest they are asking back on top of the principal. I’ve had my money for 13 months and don’t know what to do with it.

    Michelle I am a Fedex Ground contractor who has filed all the necessary paperwork through a third party company called Silicon Ledger. They are a very reputable company and this is what they do. I know I qualify I know many fellow Fedex contractors who do the same thing as my company who have already received their money. I received an email last September that the IRS had finally gotten my files. Since then nothing. Just like everyone else. This is a total crime what they are doing to these small businesses. I pay my quarterly taxes to them as they owe me hundreds of thousands of dollars that I desperately need now. Should I go to my local Congress office and raise hell or do something else that would raise attention to this matter. The public needs to know what the IRS is doing to us. Small business owners are said to be the backbone of this country. What a joke! Thank you for what you are doing and please reach out to me either on here or privately with your feedback and suggestions on what I can do to help myself and others. We all appreciate that you care about this crime that the IRS is doing to us.

The ended up filing December 2023. Needless to say, I didn’t get the refund yet. But have confirmed it was received.
