          income of $74 and $11, respectively.  Fiserv Securities issued a            
          Form 1099-DIV, Dividends and Distributions, reporting $570 of               
          capital gain dividends and $58 of ordinary dividends.                       
               2.   Petitioner's Deductions                                           
               Respondent received a Form 1098, Mortgage Interest                     
          Statement, issued by Market Street Mortgage for 2000 reporting              
          that petitioner paid $11,006 in mortgage interest.  Respondent              
          allowed petitioner a mortgage interest deduction for this higher            
          amount.  Respondent also allowed petitioner's reported deduction            
          for real estate taxes.  Petitioner's remaining deductions were              
          disallowed due to lack of substantiation.                                   
               3.   Accuracy-Related Penalty                                          
               Respondent determined that petitioner is liable for an                 
          accuracy-related penalty under section 6662(a) for 2000.                    
          B.   Petitioner's 2001 Tax Return                                           
               For 2001, petitioner again retained the same preparer.  On             
          her Form 1040, she reported $56,621 in wages and $2,024 of income           
          from capital gains.  Petitioner also reported $8,386 of Federal             
          tax withheld.  She reported no other income for 2001.                       
          Petitioner did not review the return before signing and mailing             
          it.
