This statement right here sums it all up...........
Rep. Schmidt says, "One of the agencies dropped the ball… There is apparently a real breach of security here. Is it on the Social Security end? Is it on the IRS end? We don't know because they're not talking to each other."

CINCINNATI - Some grief-stricken parents whose babies died unexpectedly are getting another shock this tax season. The IRS is rejecting their tax returns, saying someone else already has claimed their children.
The I-Team’s found at least eight families across the nation have experienced this double tragedy but the federal agencies who could get to the bottom of it won't talk to us or the families.
Ryan and Amanda Minser of Hyde Park, an East Side neighborhood in Cincinnati, say they got nowhere with the IRS after complaining. The young couple lost their 7-month-old daughter, Audrey, in March 2009 when she died suddenly from a rare, undiagnosed heart condition called endocardial bibroelastosis, a thickening of her heart lining.
It was “completely out of the blue,” says Amanda Minser. "She went down for her afternoon nap and she didn't come back up."
