The Perils of Waiting to the Last Minute September 17, 2020
The extended deadline for partnership and S-Corporation tax returns was this past Tuesday, and all of our returns were completed and filed that could be (but one). And that one client understood the issues with late filing–but more on that in a moment. However, we were lucky in that we don’t use software from Wolters […]

At Least The IRS Could Find 95% of the Returns… September 3, 2020
Two items crossed my in-box within a few minutes of each other this morning.

Burying Your Head in the Sand August 17, 2020
One of my favorite sayings (and I am not the one who came up with it) is “The Tax Code Giveth, The Tax Code Taketh Away.” It’s not fair, but we have to live with it as it is, not how we want it to be. Only Congress can change the Tax Code because it’s […]

Deja Vu Again, and Again,… August 15, 2020
Multiple clients of ours filed tax returns near the July 15th deadline and mailed payments to the IRS.

IRS notices do not […]

This is for all 501(c)(3) organizations including private foundations. So what […]

This Bozo Tax Tip—and do remember, these are things you really, really, really shouldn’t try—is aimed at the business owner who is having troubles. Business owners, unlike the federal government, can’t just print money. So let’s assume our hypothetical business owner has payroll tomorrow but doesn’t have the money for everything.
