Making a Difference Together! 🫶

We joined Maliece Whatley, one of our tax season team members and GSU professor, at a volunteer event hosted by Rotary Club of Savannah South. The event took place at PACK, a local volunteer-run organization that assembles and delivers weekend meal bags to kids and provides other essential resources to children in need in the community.

It was a meaningful way to step out of the office and support an organization that’s doing incredible work to fight childhood hunger in our area. 👏

A big thank you to PACK for letting us be a part of your mission. We’re proud to lend a hand and look forward to next time. 💛

Lawsuit filed against new legislation affecting every small business

As a trustee of the National Small Business Association, Gary was present at the press conference announcing their lawsuit in Washington, D.C. at the National Press Club. This legislation, the Corporate Transparency Act, requires all entities (under 20 employers and & $5 million in annual revenues) to provide details of the owners starting in 2024 to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. Failure to comply timely can result monetary penalties and up to two years in prison. The stated purpose of the passed legislation is to combat money laundering.

Unless an injunction is granted by the federal court, we will start to contact our clients mid-2023 to gather the required information to file the reports.
