Last year US Sen. Moreno introduced a bill prohibiting and forcibly stripping dual citizenship, the IRS ‘erroneously’ shared taxpayer data with immigration officials, and now the IRS is quietly considering adding “check this box if you ​are a non-U.S. citizen or have dual citizenship” which must be answered under penalty of perjury. I can’t imagine any good reason for an official roster of those with multiple passports to exist.

I flew up to my old place, packed everything up, and immediately left in my truck on a 2-day journey to Vegas. An unexpected road closure turned yesterday’s 9-hour drive into a 12-hour one which seriously wore me out, but there were some beautiful views.

I did not expect the 7800 ft. elevation summit nor the three major snow storms. Fun fact: cruise control stops working when your grille is covered in ice. 🥶

My tax preparer told me two weeks ago that I owed an eyewatering amount of money and today they corrected an oversight that flipped that amount owed to a refund and then some.

I’m of course thrilled that I’m getting money back and that my estimated tax calculations weren’t wildly off last year after all, but also… that’s a huge difference and it’s a big emotional rollercoaster to have ridden based on a single oopsie.
