Taxpayer Barred From Communicating With CPA Still Hit With Late File Penalty
The late file penalty would not have been as big a deal, if Mr. Hoeffner had not had such a large balance due. Of course it could be that the money he made in 2008 was sucked up by non-deductible legal expenses, which is why not enough went in with his extension in April of 2009. I still think the late file was really piling it on.
So I guess the moral of the story is that is great to be true to your school, but your CPA not so much.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
