As an actual victim of IRS theft and incompetence, I can attest this is not close to reality. Reality is far worse than this parody. When you do get ahold of them (they do selectively answer especially if you commit (dangerous) to paying) you get conflicting answers and advice that will send you to jail or with an empty bank account (the banks get their cut first). Had to pay a $43.50 "Civil Penalty" for taxes I did owe because the IRS took 11 months to process my return. They are crooks with massive power and they don't care about you or doing their jobs....
Very true the agents are not in the office. Been in litigation with IRS for too many years. Covid became an excuse for them. Arrogant, condescending agents have schooled me in person as well as phone conversations. You must prove yourself innocent via registered mail and go through a quagmire of never ending arrivals.
It's also more widely applicable, as even before the "Plan-demic", Gov't workers in Washington D.C. often have very generous "work from home" schedules. I personally know of one Treasury worker who was supposed to coordinate a CATV installation in his Federal building. He neither answered calls, e-mail, nor Skype for 3 solid days. Dude draws a 6-figure salary.
They made me jump through a bunch of hoops last year because I don't have a credit card. I told the IRS employee (who introduced himself by his ID number) "I'm being punished for being fiscally responsible?" He said "Yeah, that sounds like us."
@@notme222 Can confirm. A really good friend of mine works in IT management for the IRS, and shares pretty much all of the same criticisms the rest of us have about them. But tacked onto his Army time, he'll get to retire early, so I can't blame him for taking a good gig.
I had to call IRS "costumer support" a few years ago. I asked the person why they call it customer support when a customer is a willing consumer of a product or service, NOT a coerced individual. #TaxationsIsTheft
Customer support. "Costumer" support would, I suppose, assist Circus, film & stageplay industries. Would probably also be more efficient than customer support.
Once I had the IRS come after me for tens of thousands of dollars. After months of phone calls and multiple false resolutions the problem was solved by some guy checking a box.
It took me months of calling prior to tax season to discover that sending a fax to the IRS and waiting for a mailed response was the fastest method for resolving the issue. A fax. To a number not listed anywhere in the main instructions but buried in small text on the second page of legalese.
That's hilarious. I remember the short-lived call-in tax filing, which I used a couple of times when I had jobs as a teen and could still file a simple 1040-EZ. IIRC, it had a fax option. That was less odd in 1999, but still dying out.
@@bloodgain This was 2022...and seriously delayed some important task dependent on them rubber stamping a common action. The worst part was trying to use their website which made you go through a series of questions, said, oh, you want that, denied, call this number. that number then sent you through more automated questions before giving a similar message about not being able to accept the call and just hangs up on you. It wasn't until i consider mailing that i found the fax option. mailing was expected to take 4-8 weeks.
If only you had spotted the end note associated to paragraph 3 subsection B on page 4; you would have realized that a simple scroll sent by carrier pigeon would have resolved your problem in less than a fortnight.
Man this hit home for me. I ended up paying thousands after giving up trying to call them. I literally tried for 6 hours a day for 2 weeks and couldn’t get through. Only could get to the operator who in turn would transfer me to a recording that disconnected me. This is bullsh*t.
After a month of calling I honestly just "simply" googled how to contact the IRS and found a TH-cam video explaining the correct series of numbers to input during the phone screening to connect you to a person... This really happened lol, also my blood pressure is shooting up while typing this.. hope this story helps someone some day
@@ThePhilosopher th-cam.com/video/HlxRZdO8wf0/w-d-xo.html I couldn't find the original that I watched there is tons of videos out there idk the IRS might change the process up every now n then. But this one seemed good n short I didn't test it, tho it did sound like the special code I had to do hope it helps!!
This hit too close to home, I had the same issue this year where I paid my bill and then received a notice saying I still owed that amount plus penalties, also note I had less than a week to correct it all. Calls wouldn't go through and I had no other means of reaching out. I, by some miracle using the tax advocates number, was able to get through after an hour long wait and get it resolved. Honestly, it took 6 months off of my life. 😑😑😑😑
I had to get in touch with an "IRS advocate" to get them on the phone, basically someone acting as a kind of lawyer or mediator to convince the IRS to take the call.
You know, this would be funny if it wasn’t true. The iRS decided to send me a letter explaining 5-6 things of way my “refund” was several thousand less than what the software said…..and at the end, “please call if you disagree”. I did a dozen times and was promptly given that message and hung up on.
Great song and great parody. It has been decades since I remember hearing the original and this not only kicked me in the nostalgic area, but was also straight facts being sung.
Best ReasonTV Parody video to date. Loved it and hated it. Loved it because it was great and on point, hated it as someone who was in the situation in the parody and had to hire a lawyer, pay what they said I falsely owed, and then wait almost a year for them to refund me my money once they figured it out. A total mess.
I understand the IRS bought a whole bunch of 9 mm hollow points recently, and the Department of Agriculture bought some machine guns and a whole bunch more 9 mm. So it looks like the hoodlums are well armed but I question the morality of those who sold the arms???. I was at one time a card carrying member of the Doctor Demento Society. I don't have my card anymore but I still have the CD. I must say being a connoisseur of good comedy and parody you are doing a really good job. : )
The DOA runs the Park Rangers. And the Park Rangers are armed federal cops, with their own SWAT teams. The IRS has their own SWAT teams. On the one hand, seems like overkill. On the other, sometimes the tax dodgers are organized crime.
For real, I have been trying to call for my $4k refund for so long, always fails. I decided to not pay taxes, that way they can just subtract what I owe, from what they owe. And it worked lol.
If you print out the hard-copy PDF of the 1040 tax form, there is a line near the end, for applying any extra taxes the year before, to the current bill. That's what I did, the spring that COVID shut down the IRS. I gave up on receiving my tax return, and instead instructed my employer to stop withholding taxes for the next year. It washed out in the end.
problem is still happening, had the exact same message calling in to see why the IRS is so late getting information input from 7 months ago for our non-profit
@@Zero_Contradictions you are the kind of person who, if alive then and there, would have touted the killing of jews as not murder because it "is legal." you should ground your morals to something more substantial than legislation and tyrannical dictates.
Too close to home. Had to call the IRS multiple times last year while dealing with a tax filing issue. Was on hold waiting for at least 1.5hrs every time I called. It was literally a full time job trying to get a hold of the IRS.
I remember reading that if you call and actually speak with someone at the IRS about your return, if they give you bad advice it is still your fault for any related error on your return and so you are liable for any penalties and interest that may be assessed.
The government must put into the constitution that if we're forced to pay for a government service, it must be found able to actually help and have basic competency to continue getting funding. Basically just add on to the right to a fair and speedy trial, which is a perfect example of what I'm talking about.
They’d just investigate themselves and find that everything is working perfectly. What would work better for transparency and ethics in distribution of funding would be for everything to be funded by donation and the idea of taxation being scrapped altogether. I’d happily donate to my county for road maintenance and fire departments. I’d probably donate more than I currently pay towards those things in taxes now.
I love Remy's stuff but this might have made more sense during tax season. On a list of things Americans are worried about this summer, being able to contact the IRS isn't on the radar.
It's Reason's M.O. Always milquetoast and months late. Remember when they came out hard against lock downs? Me neither. Remember when they published an article declaring lock downs and mandatory vaccines are libertarian? That actually did happen. Hopeless.
I was just wondering when the new Remy song was coming..and BAM! one appeared. Am I a god?...not the God but perhaps a minor deity? I'm going to try to manifest some chips and nacho cheese next I'll let you know how it goes.
I’ve got a great boss. He’s got everything I want and is helping me and my family to get there. He let my family and I use his recently vacated dwelling at the beach. Nothing too fancy, but it has a boat canal that reaches the intracoastal waterway. On our last day he stopped by on his boat to pick up some things from the garage. He told me as he was pushing off that he’d be available the rest of the day. “I’m working re-boatly!”
Remy is funny as always, but this one is a bit misleading. Yes, the IRS is difficult to get in touch with, and yes, you can go to jail for not paying the money (they think) you owe them. BUT . . . just like a loan shark can't get his money if you're dead, the IRS can't get their money if you're in jail, so that's a last resort. And long before that, they will be calling you to arrange payment, and then you can dispute the claim.
In ancient Rome, Caesar would give PUBLIC lands to poor people. Whatever they yielded they gave a portion back to Caesar. "Give unto Caesar what is Caesars." Constitutionally, the federal lands sold by the states to the United States were still considered public lands. The officers, chosen by the state, and commissioned by the President were to live on the federal lands. Federal pay was minimal so the Officers were allowed to farm, ranch, distill liquors, etc. on the federal lands-- BUT THE TAX, In the constitution was a portion of the yield the officers yielded from the public lands. Give unto the People what is the Peoples. A tax on the yield of the public lands. Historically, federally commissioned officers didn't make much, they were not allowed to have off post private jobs, they were military and were suppose to remain (live and work) on the federal lands, military posts cannot be unmanned or they are abandoned. So they were allowed to suppliment their income from the public federal lands, and yield back a portion to the federal government. Imposts- a tax on things they bring onto the post. Excise -a tax on things they take off the post. THAT IS THE ONLY TAXATION IN THE CONSTITUTION. THE CONSTITUTION DOES NOT APPLY OFF FEDERAL LANDS‼️‼️ Peep my 📺 for the officers manual and MUCH more‼️
No kidding in the last two weeks I literally was doing this same thing and crying that the IRS kept kicking me off the phone. So the problem is do I pay money I shouldn't and hope to get them to pay my back later or do I risk the million dollars of late fees and penalties trying to argue about it.
The IRS owes my fathers estate a refund for several years. They just keep sending a letter saying they need a little more time. Is it ever gonna happen?
Interesting. What happens if you owe them money and you just keep sending them a letter saying you need more time? Hrm........it's almost as if...... *gears turning*
Irs: you have 1 week to pay up or go to jail. Also Irs: give us until at least October to pay up the money we owe you, if by then you don't see it, don't worry we'll extend the date by another 3 months or more. I hate the irs, my new goal in life is to now at tax season have my owes/refund be at ZERO! So I don't have to duck with this shit anymore!
During covid we ran into this problem and it took over half a year to figure out something dumb. Worst customer service ever! I was thinking if it had been a private company I'm pretty sure it would have been braking laws.
Me and my old neighbor bought our homes a month apart. He got his new homebuyer tax credit in a month. I had to wait 13 months and only got it after complaining to their taxpayer advocacy service which was basically a place within the IRS to report the IRS. They had to send two years worth of refunds in one check. I had my money in two weeks. Kill the dinosaur.
I got my CP11 on May 3rd. Saying I owed an additional $4500 because of the $1000 child tax credit advances. Of course they didn't calculate the $3500 check they cashed on 4/26... and yes I get that same message.
had to call the irs multiple times last year to get my taxes fixed. i had to call the minute they opened and automaticaly got put ona 90 minute hold. by 30minutes after openign they say all slots are alocated and it hangs up on you no voicemail, no call back, nothing.

And the 87,000 new IRS agents still won't answer the damn phone.
I'm about to give up. I don't make enough for the IRS to garnish wages from.
Me and my old neighbor bought our homes a month apart. He got his new homebuyer tax credit in a month. I had to wait 13 months and only got it after complaining to their taxpayer advocacy service which was basically a place within the IRS to report the IRS. They had to send two years worth of refunds in one check. I had my money in two weeks. Kill the dinosaur.
I don't know, its hard to rank them, but I think this is one of Remy's better ones. Not as good as Look its Magic....but the level under that one.
Love the AH reference.
When ppl wake up and STOP filing and STOP paying your federal taxes.
Having been dealing with this since March I can say yeah. This is trye
I got my CP11 on May 3rd. Saying I owed an additional $4500 because of the $1000 child tax credit advances. Of course they didn't calculate the $3500 check they cashed on 4/26... and yes I get that same message.
AMAZING!
