Dear
Family,
If your tax return is on extension, there are just about two weeks left to complete it and file. So, if you haven't gotten all your material to your tax pro, this is a really good time to get it together. Even if it's not perfect. Even if you're still missing data. Just GET IT IN. If it's not totally correct, make some good estimates. You have three years to amend, if it turns out that you're wrong. As to my own clients ... if I have all your material in my office already - your returns will be done by Thursday. Don't worry. If you have yet to reply to my requests for additional information, dig up more expenses, or decide to give up and just file with what you've got - get that stuff into my hands by WEDNESDAY, October 4th - or I will - a) finish your returns with what I have - orYou don't want LATE FILING PENALTIES - they are 25% of the balance due. Or, for the State of California, 25% of the tax liability, even if it has been paid. We just had one 1998 return where the state actually charged that penalty! The nerve. However, I do realize that some people will not be able to work on their taxes this weekend. With Rosh Hashanah starting just before sunset tonight, the Jewish community will be occupied with prayer, family, food and warmth. This is one of the most lovely times of the year. Not so much exciting, as reflective, enfolding, and cherishing. To all my friends, I wish you all a sweet, happy, healthy and wealthy New Year. May it be filled with surprises and excitement - but only about good things. Best wishes,
Your TaxMama is watching ... out for you. |

I always thought that everything related to Tax matters was dull. Especially Tax Professionals ... that is till I subscribed to I-Helpdesk_WebReview ... Eva moderates her list with incredible warmth and humor ... her humor section is sometimes (not too often :-) funnier than our own Jest for Pun. Although I've never used her Tax Services (don't earn enough to worry about such stuff :-) I'm willing to bet that it'll be 'interest'ing ! ... Gunjan, Jest for Pun |
