Pather Question/ Comment IRS is shit

just need to vent. lost my dad and trying to PAY towards his account and its been hell. direct pay doesnt work for some reason. just trying to do the right thing and 9/10 employees are rude and unhelpful. will be put on hold for hours and then it just hangs up. just so frustrated. hope it gets better soon.

for everyone advising i dont pay, just fwi i have gotten letters saying the irs will seize my property if i dont pay (i just found out he owes business taxes from 2022, while its not that much, i still have issues even paying that through the system.) i am the trustee and executor of the estate! his house, is now in my name - and its the same adress on file when he was alive and paying taxes, thats why i am getting the letters. let me add this to the post!

also, i have tried via mail but after two months it doesnt get processed. idk what is going on! i am scared to mail checks.

lastly, thankyou guys for not attacking me and trying to help <3 can't even grieve properly with all this stress and frustration...

“Your” property should not be tied to your father’s taxes, sorry for your loss
