I back filed 1040X with 8891 forms for 6 years 2 weeks ago. Currently no response from IRS yet. May I now file 2010 tax with 8891 stated election was made in 2004? I worry about if IRS not processed my 1040X yet, if I file 2010 stating 2004 election, will they say that there is no 2004 election? Please suggest whether I need file extension and wait for IRS response before I file 2010 tax.
Iy is rare that IRS responds. Do not wait for response.
After 20 years, I am severely cutting back on responses. Do not ask specifically for my help. There are a few others on this board that can answer most questions. All the best
