The
Affordable Care Act is now fully implemented.
Please refer to our enclosed information sheet to know what forms will
be required to be brought to us for the preparation of your returns.
We will be able to begin preparing your returns
as soon as you receive all of your tax documents and information. We anticipate the IRS processing of tax
returns will begin in late January 2016. Be sure to make notes as you become
aware of tax questions during the next few weeks so we can address them when we
visit.
We all
get so many tax forms in the mail each January and February that it is
increasingly important that you carefully examine your mail and save those tax
statements and forms. They provide necessary information to allow
your returns to be filed accurately and completely.
For those of you keeping your business records
on QuickBooks or Quicken computer software, we ask that you bring in a backup
of your files. Many of our questions can
be answered when we have the ability to access your accounting detail.
Our tax information sheet has been revised to
assist you in organizing your income tax records for the current year. We
must insist that you each fill out this sheet and sign it before we can prepare
your returns. This is a requirement
of the Treasury Department. You will see as you fill out the sheet that you are
acknowledging the accuracy and completeness of the information you are
providing us.
We can provide limited information to you if you
wish to contact us with questions at our website at www.dennisbrowncpa.com
During the past few months several of our
clients have been contacted by individuals claiming to be from the Internal
Revenue Service. Please note that you
will NEVER be contacted by the IRS
by phone or e-mail as a first contact.
If you find yourself in communication with anyone on the phone or
internet, please hang up or close your internet connection. It is most
unfortunate that individuals will prey on the unsuspecting. Contact our offices for more information on
these scams.
We look forward to visiting with each of you in
the coming months. We are very grateful
that you allow us the opportunity to provide your accounting and tax
services. Please have a very a Happy New
Year.
