Tax season is in full swing once again. As always we would like to first thank you all for your continued patronage and referrals. May God bless you!
For all those required to file W-2 and 1099-Misc or 1099-K forms please be sure to visit us before January 31st. On January 31, 2012 most of us, if not all of us, are scheduled to have received all our important "TAX INFORMATION" forms, but if you are one of the few who has already received all documents, come visit us asap before the January 31st crunch.
This is the time to file any outstanding returns, to gather all documents (W-2s, 1099s, 1098-Int, Unemployment Forms, etc) for any year including the 2011 one that you might have filed yourself or have had filed with another preparer. With the economic conditions over the last few years, some have opted not to file while others thought it was easier and cheaper to use a tax software or go to a non-CPA tax preparer that might charge less because they are not CPAs and are not open full-year round. The problem with trying to cut corners on professional services is that you actually get what you pay for, meaning that those that chose these "cheaper" methods are now seeking CPAs, like ourselves, for tax representation because they were not aware that marking off something on the return could cause such great differences. The good news is that we understand what people have had to do and we have the experience and willingness to help you resolve the tax deficiencies. An experienced CPA makes a world of difference so why not start right with experienced CPAs like us instead of having to correct and pay for costly mistakes. "Free" sometimes ends up being the most expensive in the end. Perhaps you are not being audited right now, but maybe you didn't take all the legal deductions and credits available to you. In any case, know that hope still exists. We are here to serve and help you no matter what year you are dealing with. Please be reminded that we only have until APRIL 17Th this year to file or amend the 2008 year income tax return. Therefore, not only is your current year important, but also the 2008 return. Bring it in and see if it was accurately prepared or not.
In an effort to increase public trust and confidence, the IRS has started a new requirement for tax preparers to be registered with the IRS. This new registration procedure has some added requirements for many non-CPA or non-Attorney preparers. For us, this means that CPAs like ourselves will continue to strive for excellence by complying with more than is required of non-CPA tax preparers. We welcome this regulation to help the consumer be more aware of his options and appreciate the licensed experienced certified public accountants who have always had to correct many errors made by other inexperienced "tax preparers".
Knowing that the laws have changed, extensions have taken place, and other requirements have been enacted, to not visit us and speak to CPAs with more than 83 years of combined experience that are up to date with knowledge and technology, would be a serious mistake. So when all is said and done, why not listen to the old adage that "a lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client". Don't take a chance with your income taxes, even the ones that appear to be "easy" may not be, in reality, returns that only have a few items to complete. Sleep better at night knowing that you did the best, hiring CPAs like us that will be here today and in the future should any questions or audits arise. The support starts with your return: You are not the only one to sign the return, our signature also goes on giving added security that a CPA not just a tax preparer did their best to obtain the maximum legal refund or minimize the legal tax liability.
