Choose your tax preparer carefully!

There are many fine tax preparers in the Texarkana area who are competent, ethical, and want to do the right thing. Unfortunately, there are some who aren't and that can lead to big problems for taxpayers. I have spent most of the day with an IRS agent representing one of these taxpayers. The reason the IRS is auditing the taxpayer is due to the omitted items and generally poor job the tax preparer did on this return. It resulted in the taxpayer being audited.  

In the past year, I have represented numerous taxpayers with a similar plight. They trusted someone to do their return and the results were so poor the Internal Revenue Service decided to inquire about the return. Just one tax preparer who doesn't do the right thing can impact a large group of taxpayers. Often the records are scarce and the tax preparer will not respond. This makes working out a remedy with IRS even more difficult. When you choose your tax preparer think about credentials and experience. Do they have a year round office and return their phone calls?  Remember, if you get promised something that doesn't seem right it probably isn't. This could lead to bigger problems later so carefully choose your tax preparer!
