🤖 AI Tax Software: Know the Risks 🤖

AI-powered tax software is becoming more popular—but it’s not risk-free.

⚠️ Potential risks include:
• Missing important deductions or credits
• Incorrect filing status selection
• Errors with complex income, investments, or business returns
• Lack of accountability if something goes wrong
• Increased audit risk due to inaccuracies

💡 AI tools can be helpful, but they don’t replace professional judgment.

If your tax situation is more than just a simple return, working with a CPA can help ensure accuracy, compliance, and peace of mind.

Received a letter from the IRS? Don’t panic — here’s what to do first:

1️⃣ Read the letter carefully
The IRS usually sends letters to request information, explain a change, or notify you of a balance.

2️⃣ Check the deadline
Many letters require a response by a specific date. Missing it can lead to penalties or further notices.

3️⃣ Compare it to your return
Make sure the information matches what was filed.

4️⃣ Don’t ignore it
Ignoring IRS letters can make the situation worse.

5️⃣ Contact a CPA
Professional guidance can save you time, stress, and money.

📊 The Hancock Group, LLC is here to help you understand and respond correctly.
