<prompt> Human: My wife is in a trust agreement with her mom. My wife for the past 2 years had to take 100k from her dead fathers brookrage account to fix the houses that the father left to her. And this year taxes had to pay 17k because her mother took all the deductions for her self when it isnt hers. We tried going to the irs directly for tax fraud and tried scheduling an appointment but they wont hear us out. We tried going to the police and they said they dont deal with that stuff thats an irs issue. Can anyone give us advice on how to go about this or have a way for us to schedule an appointment.Ask questions if you need to. This is really a gross interpretation of the actual issue but I tried to keep it short.  <response>: If there are deductions you think rightfully belong to your wife, then take them.The IRS will sort it out later when they see two returns with the same deductions. Then it will be on your wife and her mother to prove they were right to claim it. That is how it can be sorted out.
