Simply can't express my ongoing thanx for your patience this tax season. The recent wind storms, power outage (thankfully my A+ landlord had installed a full building generator), and the full moon (!?!) brought about added "challenges" to my office technology system. I limped along for a few days. Since early yesterday morning, my IT professional has worked around the clock literally for over 26 hours now; and, if all goes as planned (send out your most positive vibes and prayers) a new server will be up and running in a few more hours. What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger!! I truly appreciate your ongoing support.

We have new 2020 tax laws in place. We have a new tax filing deadline. Most systems are updated with these changes. Many taxpayers received all 3 stimulus payments. And, the March 15th partnership and corporation filing deadline is behind us. This season's content has pretty uncertain so far; but, today I feel like "Okay, let's do this"! Have a great day, Everyone!

STIMULUS PAYMENTS VIA DEBIT CARD - oh no! Did you receive yours and didn't realize......read this! https://www.irs.gov//economic-impact-payments-being-sent-b

SECOND STIMULUS payments have NOT been approved by the government and are not set to be released by the IRS. If you receive an email stating otherwise, it is a SCAM. BE CAUTIOUS and warn others, please!

At nearly 6 weeks added onto the "typical" Tax Season; and, completed returns are still continuously being mailed to my clients. Admittedly, it has been challenging for me to balance work and "COVID Life" without staff in the office and with Miss Josie home from school. However, these past "however many" weeks have also been very rewarding with so many new referrals added onto my client list. I cannot possibly thank you enough for trusting me, not only with your work; but, to trust me with preparing returns for your family and friends. I can only hope you know how much I continue to truly appreciate your business and loyalty.

Self-employed can finally file unemployment claims! Much needed!! https://www.uc.pa.gov/unemployment-be//Filing-for-PUA.aspx

Below is the link for self-employed to apply for PA Unemployment benefits. Good luck to all of those in need - yet another new process to work through. Thinking of everyone as the says continue to tick by us. https://pua.benefits.uc.pa.gov/vosnet/Default.aspx

Fingers Crossed: Self-Employed PA Unemployment link is likely to open tomorrow! Please, please let this help begin for those in need. https://www.uc.pa.gov/COVID-19/CARES-Act/Pages/PUA-FAQs.aspx

As the day goes on, this IRS link is helping to resolve your concerns with the Stimulus Payment. Tracking your payment and updating banking information CAN be accomplished! https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/economic-impact-payments

Just a reminder: today is NOT the tax filing or payment deadline! My goal, however, is to get as much tax work completed as soon as possible. If you have not already done so, please provide your tax documents to me sooner rather than later. We can file now and payments can be delayed until the July 15, 2020 due date.... Your patience over the past few weeks has been beyond measure. Assisting 40+ year-round business & payroll clients to apply for disaster relief funding, being short staffed by all 4 of my office workers for weeks, an unexpected death in our immediate family, and various life situations because of taking necessary precautions for my daughter (a transplant patient) has been a very unique & complex mix. Today, however, I push forward harder - day #104 of this unprecedented tax season. Your ongoing support, cooperation, and referrals are appreciated more than ever! Stay well!

PA UNEMPLOYMENT UPDATE: SELF-EMPLOYED...I so wish this process would be expedited for you.

According to a client, a direct deposit of a Stimulus Payment occurred today!
