  • Possible causes:
    1. Russian hacking
    2. IRS budget cuts (couldn't pay for peak load servers)
    3. Executive branch-initiated tax cut (Congress, we don't need no stinking Congress) - watch those Trump poll numbers
  • 4. President Obama
    5. Hillary's emails
  • Sent a check, although I was tempted to try the online payment. Got whacked by the AMT for the first time ever, woe is me. What I read the other day suggested that the AMT won't affect as many taxpayers next year.
