Question:
I am trying to file an amended tax return for a veteran who had his disability percentage changed from 30% to 50%. For the Strickland Act...what exactly should the letter say on it? Should it tell a dollar amount of the change & the date to when it became retroactive? Does he get this letter from the VA? I'm not sure how to go about doing the amendment. My client only gave me a letter showing the change in percentage. I appreciate any help you can give me.
