THIS AND THAT

Some items of interest to NJ tax preparers -

* Despite the fact that I specifically ask for it in my annual client mailing and on my website, at least half of my NJ homeowners do not tell me the amount of the NJ Homestead Rebate check they received.

You can now check the status of a client’s 2005 (received in 2006), 2006 (received in 2007) and 2007 (received in 2008) rebates online. To use this service you will need your social security number and zip code.

* The July issue of the NY NATP chapter newsletter is now available to download. Click here to do so. The issue has information on the 2008 NY NATP fall seminars on NY State topics held at various locations throughout New York.

* I received an email from Beanna Whitlock, Executive Director of NSTP, which reported that IRS Oversight Board Chairman Paul Cherecwich, Oversight Board Member Bob Tobias, and Oversight Board Director Chuck Lacijan will be on hand to meet with tax preparers who will be attending the New York City IRS Forum (at the New York Hilton) and hear what they have to say about operations of the IRS including such issues as collections, correspondence and stimulus payments.

They will be available on Tuesday, August 26, the first day of the Forum, from 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm in the Midtown Suite B meeting room.

According to Breanna, “All you need to do is show up and participate.”
