Taxpayer Assistance Centers Service Changes for 2012 Filing Season

By -
Beginning this year, IRS Taxpayer Assistance Centers generally will not accept bulk returns for processing and mailing, particularly when it affects taxpayer services. The IRS hopes to eliminate the practice of taxpayer representatives dropping off completed returns for processing, especially during peak operating periods.

The intent of this policy change is not to limit assistance to taxpayers or their authorized representatives.  Nor is it intended to limit taxpayer representatives’ visits to support their clients, particularly in situations where the taxpayer is facing financial harm or undue hardship, such as delinquent returns or to start or stop an installment agreement. It is designed, primarily, to stop the practice of dropping off returns solely for processing and mailing when the returns can be mailed directly to the IRS processing center. The TACs will accept returns with imminent statute implications, with remittances or other situations where it's in the best interest of the taxpayer and the Service to accept them.

Local TAC managers have the authority to make exceptions to this policy and will accept drop off returns if, in their opinion, tax preparation and other customer account services are not impacted.

The IRS encourages all tax preparers to take advantage of available e-file options to file returns electronically to avoid the need to have returns accepted and mailed at the local Taxpayer Assistance Center. IRS has also mandated e-filing for taxpayers with 25 or more vehicles with registered gross weight of 55,000 lbs or more.

File VIN Correction Online and Get Schedule1 Copy in Minutes

By -
Many tax payers do the mistake of entering the wrong ‘Vehicle Identification Number’, which is of 17 characters and a mixture of both numbers and letters. To err is human and there are chances of entering the wrong VIN especially when filing tax 2290 at the last hour. Let’s say, you might enter S instead of the number 5 and is likely to happen with others too. Neither you nor the system has indentified it but when you carry the schedule-1 copy to the DMV’s office, you realize the mistake done by you. There is no need to press the panic button but take the necessary steps to get a new schedule-1 copy with the corrected VIN number. What is VIN?

However, in 1981 the ‘National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’ changed the format and made it mandato

How to Avoid Collision with Wild Animals on Highway?

By -
Summer is a prime time bringing out the best of the nature and the time when truckers can enjoy while driving. Every bend has something new to offer the trucker. This can also be treated as a stress buster for the truck drivers as they have a hectic schedule to follow. After winter hues, it’s time for truckers to take some steps to ensure they have a safe journey.  Driving on smooth roads and cleaner environment, they are likely to see many different animals: from huge moose to small porcupines. As the summer drops in, many creatures tend to become more mobile and are usually found crossing the road and moving to the other end to find a new habitat. It is different to enjoy a scene like this and most importantly, it is entertaining for the truckers.  However, wildlife and trucks on the road is a lethal mix especially if they run over an animal. It is not only emotionally upsetting but can damage their vehicle to a great extend. Yes, larger the animal, bigger the collision
