It doesn’t have to be egregious. I seriously doubt she has legitimate business expenses above $29,200, assuming you’re filing jointly.

Sorry, a bit frustrated as someone who does everything above board but sees all these pavement princess 4x4 lifted trucks running around with commercial bumper stickers who clearly aren’t running a real business.

Interstellar was so prescient. Go watch it again. You’ll wonder if Nolan is a time traveler.
