G’day, I’m Dr. Friday, president of Dr. Friday’s tax and financial firm. To get more info, go to www.drfriday.com. This is a one-minute moment.
Making sure your information with the Internal Revenue Service is correct is your job. The IRS, sure, when you file a tax return, they’re going to update that information to the best they can. But if you have moved, relocated, or have other information that isn’t in their system, it’s your job to use Form 8822 to make sure your name, your old address, your new address, and Social Security numbers are correct. If there’s a problem with it, you need to contact the IRS. And there is a direct line, though it might be busy: 1-800-829-1040. Or if you need more help with the IRS, call us at 615-367-0819.
You can catch the Dr. Friday Call-In Show live every Saturday afternoon from two to three p.m. right here on 99.7 WTN.
