Taxpayer received a letter from past employer that they had been misclassified as a 1099-MISC subcontractor in 2009. In August of 2013 they issued W-2 to correct this error. In their informational letter, the employer states that the taxpayer should file amended returns for 2009 and receive a refund for any overpayment of self-employment taxes paid. Letter was dated August 8, 2013.
Question is: 2009 requests for refund should have been filed by April 15, 2013, so does anyone know of exceptions to file for refunds past the due date?
(side note: taxpayer said IRS audited the employer and made them fix this mistake)
Thanks, Kerrie
