If Radar returns to this thread he'll prolly question whether the 16th was properly ratified. Proper or not they will come take your stuff.

I'm living proof. Got a letter in the mail last week that said I didn't fill the form out correctly, and so they over-refunded me about $2500. I have to pay them back now. And here's the cool part: they get to charge me a years interest on the money they over paid me last year, + interest until I pay them off.

Of course, had I not spent the refund they sent me THIS year already, I could have just repaid them out of that. But now I have to set up a "payment plan". If I choose not to pay them, that's an option, but then they levy my assets and I am ineligible for any federal (college) loans.

So it may be illegal, Radar, but they are doing it, anyway, as much as I'd like to buy into your version of how things would be in "Radar-topia", it's NOT going to happen. We live in Bush's America, and I need to come up with an extra $100 a month until my refund for this year gets here next year, to pay off last year.
