In my experience. Like the DMV, they have a bad reputation that is both dated and/or exaggerated.

They understand people make mistakes. They want you to be honest and timely and follow the rules. As long as the rule are followed, they want you to avoid taxes.

If you make a mistake, hire a CPA to help you amend the return. If it's a first time thing, they'll likely abate any penalty and charge you the interest you owe.
