Well, it has been a cold and fast start to Tax Season 2026. If you haven't heard, the Big Beautiful Bill has changed the tax landscape. Most of these tax law changes are retroactive and will be implemented on your 2025 tax returns. The IRS is open and accepting electronically filed returns at this time. Please call our office soon if you'd like an in person appointment for March as we are almost at full capacity for in person at this time. We thank you all for your continued support of our family business.
Again, we want you to stay aware of the scammers! They are out in force. The IRS, NJ or Social Security will NOT email or call you asking for bank information. Do not click on any emails from an alleged government agency or bank. We strongly suggest deleting all emails asking for information or asking you to download or open a document.
