Tax Guru-Ker$tetter Letter

Friday, July 25, 2003

The tax-rebate check is in the mail - If you receive one of these checks, make sure to properly identify it in your checkbook and/or QuickBooks. Also, be sure to tell your tax preparer next year how much you received so we can all avoid the confusion that the 2001 rebate checks caused. I had dozens of clients swear that they hadn't received their 2001 rebates, only to have IRS catch them and have to change their 1040s accordingly. That was one (of many) reasons we started requiring everyone to have all of their personal accounts set up on QuickBooks; so that we can check for the rebates.

Hey, Mom and Dad: Don't Fall for This Tax Scam! - No need to pay anyone to get the IRS rebate checks. Any time there is money being tossed around, you can be sure there will be vultures trying to take it.
