Tax form error may cost South Carolinians thousands
Thousands of South Carolinians could lose up to $600 due to an error in a state income tax worksheet from the Revenue Department. The misprint affects married couples when one spouse is under 65 and the other is 65 or older. John Stinton of AARP calls it a very big mistake and says some taxpayers may double dip on deductions because of the faulty worksheet.

Taxpayers 65 or older in South Carolina face refunds errors
About 49,000 taxpaying households in South Carolina have a filer 65 or older and only a tenth of those households have a spouse younger than 65. Revenue Department spokeswoman Vicki Ringer notes a worst case $632 tax savings loss and cites mailed tax packages without corrected worksheets. State Sen. Ernie Passailaigue urges notifying affected taxpayers to avoid filing errors. The department may review returns from couples with one spouse over 65 to identify misapplied worksheets, and address double dipping is considered too complex.
