The companies like TurboTax lobby against it and are supposedly actually for having more complicated tax laws so people need to rely on their services.

I read about it a few years ago so the details are foggy.

I’ve definitely had requests like this in the past from extended family that for some reason would rather reach out to family they barely know than get a hotel room.

I’m far too weak of a person to just outright say no, so I just make up excuses about why they can’t lol

Some people just have the mindset of if someone is family, then that’s enough. I can’t wrap my head around that. To me they are still strangers and we just happen to know some of the same people.
