My old employer once accidentally filed an incorrect W-2 form and sent me the corrected one after I had already filed. So, I mailed an amended return and got a notice that it was wrong a month or so after. Upon calling the IRS for clarification (which they first left me on-hold for 2 hours ), they told me my amended return and all the documents used for support were invalid because they received the corrected W-2 a couple days after I filed the amended return, so they had to throw away my amendment and required me to file another. Thing is, you can't file amendments digitally and must physically mail them, including supporting documents and the like. So now I have to go and print another fat stack of papers and mail it just to wait again and hope it's accepted, all so I can prove to them that I owe $7... 😑
