I got a letter from the IRS yesterday...

After a WTF moment because I have a good CPA and all my payments were made on time, I opened the letter and read something I never expected.

The letter read:
"We changed your 2009 Estimated Tax Total reported on your return. As a result of these changes, you are due a refund if you owe no other taxes."

"You claimed an incorrect amount as Estimated Tax Payment (No. I didn't), payment with extension of time to file (No. I didn't file for an extension), or other payments and credits. If you are due a refund from the Internal Revenue Service, it should arrive within 6 weeks. Any interest due you will be added."

The check came in the mail today. After giving my wife some of the money, I've decided to support SCHIP and buy 3 or 4 boxes of cigars.
