Context 2

Context Unusual reporting

Net worth $600,000; listed items add up to $739,000

Reported net worth: $600,000. Household goods + listed assets − listed liabilities = $739,000. A difference is normal: net worth also counts assets and debts that aren't listed individually (items under $1,000, credit cards, taxes), and the instructions say subtracting listed liabilities from listed assets won't give an accurate figure in most cases.

What to check
  • No action needed unless other items look off.

  • If the filer owns it, check the business section and secondary income.
