Six-year-old puts the IRS in its place with this letter written in crayon 1:47 PM 02/18/2014
After the Internal Revenue Service sent multiple letters to a six-year-old, the fed up mother, Susan F. Smith, decided to issue a response.
She encouraged her son Paulie Smith to write a formal crayon written letter to the tax man, according to Viral Nova.
The original IRS letter read: “Dear Mr. Smith: we don’t recognize Susan F. Smith as someone authorized to discuss your tax file. If you want Susan F. Smith to be authorized to discuss your return we suggest you go online and submit form 8892 and form, etc.”

“Dear Taxman. I got your letter. I am now 6 years old. It is ok if you talk to my mommy Susan F. Smith about my tax papers until I am 18. – Paulie Smith”

Here's the most I could find out:
It seems that for some unspecified reason the little boy has to file an individual tax return.
ZitatHowever, there’s one little boy who must file an individual tax return for a variety of reasons. So when he received a letter from the IRS questioning several items on his most recent return, his mother naturally responded for him. She received this in return (regarding her 5 year-old son):
“Dear Mr. Smith: we don’t recognize Susan F. Smith as someone authorized to discuss your tax file. If you want Susan F. Smith to be authorized to discuss your return we suggest you go online and submit form 8892 and form, etc.” Since the government already had the little boy’s Social Security Number and knew he was a minor, his parents were perplexed. http://www.viralnova.com/5-year-old-tax-letter/
