*******PLEASE READ******

Good morning FB! I hope that everyone is enjoying their Tuesday....I want to address something whether you're my clients or not. I know about 50% of you all are my clients and 50% aren't. But this is for EVERYONE as I stated. When a Tax Preparer fill out your taxes and SUBMITS them and an acknowledgement comes back stating ACCEPTED. Then services have been rendered to you. Now whether the IRS release the refund in February or even in December, the SERVICES have still been rendered. Whether the refund has been taken due to back taxes, Child support, Student loans, or any other Federal or State debt, again the services have still been rendered. It's not fair to the preparer to ask them to lower their fee or even forfeit it due to late dispersement. I try to give my clients examples to help them understand where I'm coming from when they say they don't understand why I still charge my same fee. Ok if yall work at Walmart for 2 weeks straight and NOT one customer comes in and shops and on your payday, your supervisor asks could they not pay you since no one came in. Please be honest with me, how many of yall would say OK? Or if you fix my car and call me to come get it and place it in front of your business and I owe the title company. The repo guy spots my car before I get there and get it, will you still expect me to pay for YOUR SERVICES RENDERED? In both examples, services have been rendered and does not have anything to do with the situation at hand. And also the preparer doesn't get paid if you don't get funded. If a client just never gets funded that year from the IRS, I take it as a business loss but if their refund is taken for a debt then I place them on my debt list. Therefore, I won't be able to render future business until they clear their past debt. Moral of the story: Please consider our job just as you consider yours, as being paid for your given labor.

Here’s a few things to keep in mind:

🔹️If you have an LLC and you did not opt to have your business taxed as a corporation, you do NOT file your personal taxes separately. Any income and deductible expenses for your LLC should be reported with your personal tax return.

If you file your taxes without reporting your LLC
earnings, losses, or deductions, you will have to file an amendment, which is an unnecessary hassle.

🔹️If you are the sole owner of your LLC, you will report your profits/losses and business expenses on Schedule C and submit it with your personal tax filings. The Schedule C only reports the income and deductions that relate to your business activities. If you report a profit, then that amount should be included as additional income on your standard
filing form, Form 1040.

🔹️If you are a partner within your LLC, then you will need to include a Schedule K-1, also known as IRS Form 1065, along with your personal filing. The LLC owners only pay taxes on their share of the profits.

The Schedule K-1 breaks down each LLC member's share of the profits/losses and deductible expenses.

It is prepared for each individual partner and should be included with the partners' personal tax return.

🔹️This IRS Form 1065 is informational only and allows the IRS to verify that the personal tax returns of each individual member matches the data reported on Schedule K1.

If you have any additional questions, please consult your tax preparer or schedule a consultation with me either in person or virtually.
