Legal Question in Securities Law in California

I would use the telephone, or go see someone at Wachovia in person. Maybe you should take your tax preparer with you.

My hunch is that it's 80% likely there's a simple misunderstanding involved here, e.g., per your instructions some of the money deposited with Wachovia went into a fund or account that reports separately, perhaps under a different name. Another 19% of the possibility is that either Wachovia, the IRS, the accountant or you have made a mistake in accounting practices, arithmetic, data processing or something, causing incomplete or incorrect records. The other 1% and let's hope the reason doesn't lie here, is that someone has embezzled your $40,000.

So, misunderstanding, mistake, or mischief, $40,000 is a lot of money and I would (a) not place any blame on anyone yet, but (b) lean very hard on Wachovia, the accountant and the IRS to get some answers and explanations ASAP.

You have already posted this question but you did not provide me with the documentation by which your tax preparer says this. What is his basis? I would need to see documentation with which to approach wachovia. You need to prove things n the law.

Best,
