Happy “by the way, I’m leaving the country tomorrow and will return right before the deadline day” To all who celebrate. Extensions for all!

When a business owner calls for a status update…but their wife who does the books never sent in the docs and asked for an extension … Awkward

“I didn’t make a spreadsheet this year.” C How you know a retired engineer is really retired.

“So…two more weeks?” My kiddo as he side-eyes the crockpot.

IRS vendor levy- vendor hired an attorney &set up new company, so cust can pay the new company going forward and ignore the Notice of Levy. sounds unethical for sure, but is it illegal? Thoughts? Not even lots of $. I wish they’d called the irs for penalty help & pmt plan.

“She made us promise that she could die at home” It sounds good to die at home. But home health care is ~$1,000 per DAY. >$350,000 per year on home health care…for multiple years. And the patient isn’t cognizant enough to know she’s at home. Is this a fair request? Prob not.

C asked how to code the $121,000 in ERC “tax free” money they deposited this week. Will it ever end?

C is running three companies, with two cash and one accrual, out of one Quickbooks Online file. This is not what classes are for. And- they’ll end up paying us more to fix this crap than they would have paid for three different QBO files.

So hypothetically, if someone received ERC money they weren’t eligible for and they already cashed the checks…now what? Can they send it back? How? Someone tell me why, in 2025, we are still dealing with ERC madness.
