Extension Season

I'm getting close to the beginning of the second season of tax preparation. Those who have filed extensions will be on contact very soon. 

I can remember when no one wanted to file an extension. It seems that over the years that reluctance has diminished somewhat. Most clients want to get filed on time. I do find that clients for whom I have filed extensions have fairly complex tax returns and need more time. It is just that they wait to the last minute as many files do at the mid-April deadline.

THETAXBOOK

I recommend the "THETAXBOOK" as a reference source. This upcoming season will mark the fourth season I've used this wonderful reference. It is published by Tax Materials, Inc.

The material is displayed in several sections that are set in tab format. Plus it has some quick references such as tax rate schedules that I find always come in handy.
