Part-Time Job with the I R S
Published May 11, 2003
When our son Sean was in college, he applied for a part-time job with the Internal Revenue Service.
After six weeks of training, however, only a full- time position was open, so he left.
Sean received no W-2 form for his work at the IRS. He requested that the agency send the form so he could file his tax return.
Come April there was still no reply, so Sean had to estimate his taxes.
By midsummer, Sean finally received a letter from the IRS. It noted, "We have been unable to locate your employer."
