I guess it's time to post:. IF you are a non-filer for a few years and you come into my office or any other office to have them prepared, don't expect to receive your refunds! The law is very explicit:. If you don't file within three years of the date you "should have filed", the IRS will not issue your refund.

Apparently, many are unaware of this fact. Before his retirement, I had a client who would file 3 years at a time and receive a huge refund check for those three years... said it was the only way he'd save money. When it came, he took it straight to his credit union.

Just putting this out there for anyone who doesn't know this law exists 🥰

There have been quite a few postings concerning the vote on "fair taxation" in Illinois. I'm just clarifying it for some of you, by request:

Many are saying that "it allows the state to raise taxes without vote, first.". Have you EVER voted to have your state taxes raised?? They have that right, NOW! They can....and, do....raise the rate of income tax in Illinois....they don't need a vote on it.

It allows them to charge a different (yes, higher) rate of income tax on approximately 3 percent of Illinois residents and reduce the rate to lesser earnings of the remaining 97 percent. That's why the vote... It allows for different percentages, based on taxable income. Right now, Illinois has a " flat tax rate" for everyone, regardless of income.

It does not tax retirement income....Illinois has no tax on retirement as yet. I say "as yet" because many other states DO tax retirement income.

I hope you will weigh this carefully as you vote....have a great day, everyone 😊❣️

Wow...I'm truly amazed at some people! Here's a 'for instance' for ya: A mother has three children...one lives with their father and has for about 5 years; the other two lived with the mother and her 'live in boyfriend' until he booted her to the curb. She takes the other two children and dumps them at her parents' house and takes off for South Dakota in September. And, yet....she has the utter GAUL to claim ALL THREE children on her tax return!! It's people like this that cause so many problems for tax preparers. Just hang loose, honey....the IRS is notified.

Few professionals are as misunderstood as tax preparers – at least according to the tax preparers themselves.
