[11/16/20]   The tax year is finally closed! Now with what seems like a little time between stopping and gearing up again! Have to get the seminars finished! This going to be a long seminar season with all the emergancy legislation! We'll get it!

[06/15/20]   well, the stimulus instructions are different for Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service! Treasury says if you receiving nay kind Social Security payment, SSI,Retirement Disability, whatever, you will get a stimulus.
payment. There are nearly 4 million payments still to be mailed out - on a debit card - not a a check! Check your mail!
IRS says if you are a dependent you will not get a stimulus payment - even if you are on SSI, Disability or retirement.
.
Have one client that has father on disability and teenage daughter getting Social Security. So the family got stimulus check for 2900 - 1200 for husband and wife and 5500 for the daughter. then a few days later daughter got a check for 1200! Don't think they have the thing figured out!

Watch you mail the stimulus payment comes in an envelope that does not say Treasury or IRS on it. Don't think it is a credit card offer and throw it out. there will be no way to contact IRS or Treasury to get it replaced. You throw it out; you lose your stimulus payment.

[06/15/20]   busy this week! will be in the office Monday through Thurday starting 9 am. until we are done!

[04/26/20]   Everyone has stimulus questions and the IRS website is zero help. If you update with the IRS website with direct deposit information don't be surprised if you get a paper check!
Treasury Department and IRS are on different pages. The bureaucracy was not ready for this stimulus.
Treasury says if you have Social Security payment of any kind you will get the stimulus the way you get your payment. IRS says if you are a n adult dependent you will not receive one. So the question is will parents claimed by their son or daughter get the stimulus? WHO KNOWS!

So if you think you caouls a jump on tax season if your employeer issues info early; think again.
