W2s from a Chapter 7 dot-com (Score 1)

I spent a day lugging equipment out of the offices of the failed dot-com I worked for last year. The reason? The bankruptcy trustee didn't have the funds to issue W2s for the failed company so I agreed to a day of hard labor in return for getting my W2. Sure, I could file an estimated return but I was making beaucoup bucks the first 3/4s of 2001 and then spent the last 1/4 on unemployment. I was paying out at the highest tax bracket but because of the unemployment I fell a few major steps and should get a big chunk back. Filing an estimated return puts me in danger of being fined our auditted for overestimating - and to make matters worse - the IRS will fine you if you underestimate by too much. Damned if you do, damned if you don't...
