This has been one of the wildest tax seasons in recent memory. I saw a note from the IRS last Friday (the 12th) that as of that day, 50 million taxpayers had yet to file. LOTS of extensions happened out there, as all of the tax law changes caused a bunch of confusion. It’s our hope that our West Tennessee … Read More

The college hoops brackets are set, and the madness begins. And, per the American Gaming Association, 47 million of us will be wagering $8.5 BILLION on this event.

Now we’re cooking with gas. After weeks of reports that refunds were down, last week’s data from the IRS shows a new trend.

IRS Form 4852: Moore Enterprises Explains the Substitute for the W-2
Word on the tax professional “street” is that tax filing numbers are down across the board so far.
