When I worked in New York the accounting software was set up to have all the tax returns — Federal, NY State, and NYC — linked together. I can’t imagine that any accountant would sign off on a return with even a small discrepancy between what was reported to the IRS and what was reported to the State.
It’s unlikely that the “Trump Organization” (whatever that means) outsources their tax returns. I’d guess that they have an in-house tax department that prepares the company returns. That’s why I repeatedly ask, what are we talking about when we say they have “Trumps Taxes”.
1040 = meaningless except to smear
Business = practically an audit is required to decipher it.
This is a trolling expedition.
IF they did, even quite by accident, would that liability fall on the Firm or the Client?
