Thanks for the reply! The European 1 often looks like an upward facing triangle without a bottom line. Surprisingly frequently it has caused European's in the US to have issues with the IRS/Taxes because the European 1 is often interpreted by Americans as a 7 (because Americans do not use a bar across the center of the 7 or Z). A household size of 7 instead of 1 can be a real back breaker!
