the penalty for filing late is more than that, sadly. 🤪

from what I can tell from the transcript, the computer disagrees with the amount of a credit that was claimed, resulting in me owing more money. Will have to wait and see what the official notice from the IRS says.

I've got my legal name changed most places it matters now, including with my employer. My passport, which it looks like I might need in May, will take several weeks since I need a new one, given the picture looks nothing like me.

I just saw that, as of today, the IRS has processed my 2021 tax return that I mailed back in November.

The bad news: I apparently owe more money for 2021.
The good news: My ex, who got a refund for 2021, will likely get a bill from the IRS…with interest and penalties.

I’m pleasantly surprised with the promptness with which this arrived. And now…I can change my name at work.

what’s interesting about Tennessee is that if you trade in a car, you can actually transfer the license plate to the new car. It’s why I was a little thrown off when they required me to get a new plate.

Who knew that removing my ex from my car title would result in getting new tags? Not me, apparently.

Oh well, at least the car is registered for another 12 months. And, unlike Washington, Tennessee doesn’t charge you an arm and a leg. It also didn’t require her to sign anything, either.

in Washington State, I paid $80 to renew my license for 6 years. My first license in Tennessee was about $30 and is good for 8 years. The $8 was a “duplicate license” fee.
