The solution is patient suay. Government bodies always get away with mistakes.

I remember sometimes back, iras hotline told me my stock trading losses can reduce tax.

Then they accuse me of evading tax, I play back the hotline message for iras to hear.

Then iras officer say sorry for hotline mistake to mislead me, but I still cannot deduct my trading losses.

Bravo to iras, their mistakes, we suffer.

If I know trading cannot deduct, I would have invest in real estate instead trading
