New draft schedules that will replace the old Form 1040

There were originally going to be five schedules attached to the new Form 1040, but as of last week, it became six schedules after the IRS provided a draft version of the new form for the public to review.  Although the draft Form 1040 itself has become the size of a postcard, the number of schedules has increased, not even including the original schedules A, B, and C. With the newly constructed draft Form 1040, Sigma Tax Pro suggests that tax professionals get well acquainted with the new draft schedules (1-6).

The draft Schedule 1 is for “Additional Income and Adjustments to Income”.  Lines for business income/losses are also shown on the Schedule 1, where a Schedule C/C-EZ should also be attached along with capital gain/loss information on a Schedule D. Depending on each individual taxpayer’s situation, a Schedule E or F may be required as well.

Draft Schedule 2 is less lengthy than the previous schedule with different lines for Tax information such as child income tax, alternative minimum tax and excess advance premium tax credit.  With these lines may come the requirement to attach other forms needed.

Draft Schedule 3 is also comparatively condensed, with the section being for “Nonrefundable Credits”, including:  foreign tax credit, credit for child and dependent care, education credit, retirement savings credit, and others. These lines will may also require separate forms to be attached.

Draft Schedule 4 is for “Other Taxes”, including:  self-employment tax, Social Security & Medicare tax on tip income not reported to employer, etc.  This schedule also has many Obamacare taxes, namely the health care individual responsibility payment, additional Medicare tax, and net investment income tax.

Draft Schedule 5 handles “Other Payments and Refundable Credits”, including lines that may be used in the future.  Lines here include 2018 estimated tax payments as well as amounts added from the 2017 return.

The unexpectedly developed draft Schedule 6 is devoted to “Foreign Address and 3rd Party Designee”, and is the least lengthy of all the previous schedules.  It has a small number of fields devoted to simply the foreign address and the 3rd party designee information.

Mitch Elbarki of Sigma Tax Pro comments, “Although the new Form 1040 has been recently publicized to be in postcard size, the increased number of schedules and required attachments of several other forms suggest that tax preparation is not going to be any less complex in the coming seasons…tax pros should definitely visit the IRS website and get well acquainted with the new changes as they develop.”

Tax reform supporting resources

The IRS plans to renovate over one hundred of its computer systems as well as produce hundreds of new forms, instructional guides and publications to help with the administration of the new tax law, as per the spending plan published by the Wall Street Journal.  The new plan will require over 500 extra hours of work to integrate the many changes needed to establish the new system.

The new plan comes as the IRS has estimated an additional inflow of over 4 million phone calls to assist taxpayers with the new tax law, an increase of 17% from the prior fiscal year. The training of taxpayer-facing IRS employees will require about 40,000 hours, representing a cost of roughly $1.8 million, including the cost of training materials, review and interpretative advice for the IRS Chief Counsel.

For small businesses and professional tax preparers, the IRS plans to proactively reach out to provide a helping hand.  On any given year, the Internal Revenue Service may hold upwards of 1000 events to help educate the tax community.  As a result of the new tax reform, the agency expects a spike in the frequency of these outreach events.

CEO of Sigma Tax Pro, Mitch Elbarki adds “It is crucial that professional tax preparers register and participate in forums and educational events held by the IRS to become more active and responsible members of their tax community…this will only help tax offices be more prepared in answering any client or taxpayer questions, further differentiating themselves from less involved and less qualified tax preparation agencies.”  The IRS anticipates a 25-30% increase from the prior year in requests for in-person events.

Relief from transition tax on foreign earnings

Earlier this week, the IRS confirmed that it will be foregoing late payment penalties as per section 965 of the new tax code.  Section 965 was implemented as a part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December of 2017, calling for a transition tax on untaxed foreign income of offshore companies owned by US shareholders.  The agency further explained the relief in an FAQ section placed on the tax reform section of its website.

With this new tax law in effect, foreign cash earnings and cash equivalents are to be taxed at a rate of 15.5%, with remaining earnings taxed at 8%.  If a taxpayer chooses to file an election in good time under section 965 (h), the transition tax can then be paid in eight yearly installments.

By allowing US corporations to pay less taxes on profits, the Tax Cuts and Jobs act encourages the repatriation of trillions of dollars of deferred taxes that may have otherwise been held for several more years abroad.  Mitch Elbarki, CEO of Sigma Tax Pro comments, “With the incentive to repatriate these dollars comes other complexities for taxpayers requiring extra guidance not just from the IRS, but from tax professionals as well…tax pros are more in tune with the overall financial picture of any given client, whereas the IRS can only provide general information.”

To gather more information, concerned taxpayers and tax professionals alike should visit the IRS website for continuously updated information.

Use The Withholding Calculator During Client Tax Reviews

The new Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will affect tax returns that taxpayers will file in 2019.  This new law is responsible for several significant changes, including the exclusion of deductions for employee business expenses, investment expenses, investment management fees, and tax prep fees.  The new law also limits deductions for state and local taxes as well as home mortgage interest deductions in specific situations.
It is important that professional tax preparers recommend that their clients review their paycheck withholding amounts as soon as possible so that they can adjust if necessary, giving more time for the withholding to spread out evenly throughout the year.  Mitch Elbarki of Sigma Tax Pro gives fair warning, “…if taxpayers procrastinate in reviewing their paychecks with a professional to make needed adjustments, then fewer pay periods will be left to make any changes, resulting in a much more serious outcome with every unadjusted paycheck, leading to a potentially a larger tax bill or penalty by tax time in 2019.”
The Withholding Calculator, available on the IRS website, is the tool for the job.  Using this calculator, tax professionals should urge their clients to collect their most recent pay stubs and most recent income tax return (Form 1040) to begin the review.  Tax professionals should also advise their clients that if any other changes to their financial circumstances occur during the year, they need to contact them to assure the withholding amounts are still appropriate.

New Variation On Banking Tax Scam

The criminals are typically sending faxes or letters to prospects requiring them to fill out Form W-8BEN, “Certificate of Foreign Status of Beneficial Owner for United States Tax Withholding and Reporting”. The taxpayer is then told to fax the form back to the scammers pretending to be IRS employees.The letter they receive tells them the are exempt from withholding income tax but have to verify their details with the Internal Revenue Service.

While the Form W-8BEN is a legitimate IRS document that can be viewed at the above link it can only be handled by a withholding agent. There are also stories of scammers attacking non US residents as a means to get passport details and other pertinent personal information. Mitch Elbarki of Sigma Tax Pro points out, “An original form W-8BEN does not require the taxpayer to provide personal information.”

These kind of criminals will always find new means to prey on unsuspecting taxpayers, thousands of people have lost millions of dollars and their personal information to tax scams in recent times. As usual scammers take advantage of the regular mail, telephone, or email to contact their victims and the IRS never initiates contact with taxpayers by email, text messages to request personal or financial information. Tax pros should advise their clients to contact them directly anytime they receive a call from someone sayng they represent the IRS.

sigma-1Sigma Tax Pro Reminds Tax Pros About EIC Notifications From IRS

Sigma Tax Pro encourages tax pros to proactively reach out to clients who may have received an EIC letter or notice from the IRS.

Delray Beach, Florida March 9th, 2016

As tax season is winding down, Sigma Tax Pro wants to remind tax pros to proactively reach out to their clients who applied for the Earned Income Credit this year, but have not yet received their refund. There is a chance that the taxpayer received a letter from the IRS that will delay the refund, and by reaching out to those clients and letting them know to be on the look-out for that letter, tax pros can reduce the delay as much as possible. Taking this action will not only help your client receive their refund, but if you elected to use a Refund Transfer product, it will ensure you receive your preparation fees in a timely manner as well.

Ian Gardner, of Sigma Tax Pro, encourages tax pros to think of the situation from the perspective of the taxpayer: “Many clients receive these letters from the IRS, and they either panic, or ignore them completely. As a tax pro, you can let them know the necessary steps to get their refund, as well as remind them you are available to help.” A client may receive a letter or notice from the IRS for a number of reasons: if they qualify for EITC but have not claimed it on their return; if they need to verify their EITC claim; or if the client’s previous EITC claim was reduced or disallowed and they need to file Form 8862 to claim EITC.

Taxpayers and tax pros alike are reminded to be wary of anyone posing as an IRS agent, and should always report any suspicious activity. More information regarding fraud, identity theft, and phishing can be found on the IRS website.

Sigma Tax Pro provides a full range of essential services for tax pros. This includes industry leading software solutions as well as technical support, tax preparation support and client retention strategies. Sigma Tax Pro specializes in helping tax preparation firms expand their businesses, open new offices and increase their client base.

 


 

sigma-2Sigma Tax Pro Reminds Tax Pros Of Nearly $1 Billion In Unclaimed Refunds

Sigma Tax Pro urges tax pros to be diligent in reviewing their clients previous year returns to verify if they are among the more than one million taxpayers who did not file a 2012 tax return.

Delray Beach, Florida March 10, 2016

Under the current law, taxpayers are allowed a three-year window to claim their refund. For those who did not participate in the 2012 filing season, this is their last chance to claim the money to which they are rightfully entitled. Taxpayers are reminded that, in order to claim their prior year refund, all subsequent years must also be filed. If taxpayers are having issues obtaining prior year forms they can use the IRS tool “Get My Transcript by Mail.” The deadline to file for 2012 is April 18th, 2016, or April 19th for those in Maine and Massachusetts.

Ian Gardner, of Sigma Tax Pro, reminds tax pros that, “…Taxpayers may be missing out on more than just their refund amounts. Many individuals also qualify for EITC, which provides aid to families below certain income thresholds.” The IRS has published total potential refund amounts for each state, with the highest potential refund amounts coming from Texas, California, Florida, and New York. Tax pros in these areas are encouraged to be more diligent in ensuring their clients file, and do so within the allotted window. To contrast, Vermont, North and South Dakota, and Wyoming had the lowest potential amounts.

vol-14-01Taxpayers Who Used ‘Get Transcript’ Feature on IRS Website Should Be on the Lookout for IRS Letter, Advises Sigma Tax Pro

The IRS is sending out over 200,000 letters to taxpayers who were affected by ‘Get Transcript’ data breach

Delray Beach, Florida, August 21st 2015

After the initial reports of the issue with the IRS’s ‘Get Transcript’ application that surfaced in May, an internal review has now revealed the full extent of the fraudulent attempts to access taxpayers’ information. Jody Dovich of Sigma Tax Pro states “many tax professionals were already aware of the issue and informed their clients when the news first broke.” However, the IRS will now be sending letters out to all taxpayers who may have had their information stolen by criminals. The IRS maintains that the criminals did not gain access to internal IRS databases however. /p>

The IRS will also be offering a number of additional services to those affected by the issue. These services include free credit protection as well as Identity Protection PINs. The IRS also believes that stolen data may have been taken with a view to filing fraudulent returns next year. For this reason, anyone affected should take all precautions to protect themselves using credit monitoring and the PIN system.

vol-14-02Sigma Tax Pro Reminds Parents and Students to Check on All Education Related Tax Benefits Available

Taxpayers should check to see if they will qualify for either of two college tax credits or other education-related tax benefits for 2015.

Delray Beach, Florida, August 21st 2015

As America says goodbye to summer and heads back to school, students and parents should check to see if they can take advantage of any education-related tax benefits. The two main benefits are the American Opportunity Tax Credit and the Lifetime Learning Credit which are available to taxpayers who pay qualifying expenses for an eligible student. The IRS considers eligible students as the taxpayer, spouse and their dependents. The American Opportunity Tax Credit can provide a credit for eligible students, however the Lifetime Learning Credit provides a maximum credit per tax return.

Jody Dovich of Sigma Tax Pro highlights the importance of being aware of these often overlooked benefits: “When it comes time to file taxes, everyone is looking to squeeze every last dollar out of their refund and this is a great way to do just that.” Nonetheless, it is vital that tax pros are aware of the specific details on these tax credits. They only apply to eligible students who are enrolled in eligible colleges, universities or vocational schools, including both nonprofit and for-profit institutions. Another caveat is that the credits are subject to income limits and this could affect the amount claimed on their tax return.

mar-2015-01Use ‘Where’s My Refund’ To Track Your Refund, Advises Sigma Tax Pro

At this time of year many taxpayers are anxiously awaiting their refunds; the ‘Where’s My Refund’ site provides a quick and easy answer.

Delray Beach, Florida, March 28th, 2015

Any seasoned tax pro will be expecting the most common question during tax season which is “where’s my refund?” The IRS reminds taxpayers to visit their site at http://www.irs.gov/refunds to get the most up-to-date status on their refund. The IRS offers taxpayers a number of useful tips through their Tax Time Guide, which is designed to help taxpayers through the busy tax season period. The IRS has also developed an application called IRS2Go 5.0 which can be downloaded onto smartphones; the ‘Where’s My Refund?’ feature is accessible through the app.

Taxpayers should expect their information to be available within 24 hours of e-filing their tax return or four weeks after mailing a return. The system updates once per 24-hour period so there is no need to continually check throughout the day. If the information has not updated, the taxpayer should check back the following day. The ‘Where’s My Refund?’ feature has received over 179 million hits this year alone so it’s definitely a hit with taxpayers. Individuals should have their Social Security number, filing status and exact refund amount when checking the status of their return or refund.

mar-2015-02Sigma Tax Pro Advises Taxpayers To Look Out For Identity Verification Letters

The IRS may require taxpayers to verify their identity before processing their return and issuing a refund.

Delray Beach, Florida, March 28th, 2015

Tax professionals should advise their clients that they may receive a letter from the IRS requesting them to verify their identity. There is a website that taxpayers can visit to complete the process, idverify.irs.gov. The IRS does not send the letter because of any wrongdoing on the taxpayer’s behalf but only when they have indications that identify theft may be taking place. The communication they will receive from the IRS will be Letter 5071C. When they access the verification site, they will have to answer a series of questions that only the taxpayers themselves could answer. They will then be asked to confirm that they submitted the return. If they did not, the IRS can then take action to protect the taxpayer.

The letter will be mailed via the U.S. Postal Service; the IRS will not communicate this information through emails or phone calls. If taxpayers receive phone calls regarding the letter from someone claiming to be the IRS, they can be assured it is not a legitimate call. The letter will contain a toll-free number that can be called if the individual does not wish to use the idverify.irs.gov site to complete the process. However, there may be long hold times on the toll-free line during peak hours, so the website will always be the fastest and easiest option.

VOLUME 12 – WINTER 2015

vol12-12015 Tax Filing Season Volume Greater than Previous Year, Reports Sigma Tax Pro

The early start to the 2015 tax season has seen an increase in electronically filed returns and direct deposit requests.

In contrast to last year’s delayed tax season beginning at the end of January, this years January 20th start has seen an increase in e-files and refunds over 2014 numbers. The IRS has received more than 14 million tax returns as of January 31st, and more than 13 million of those returns were filed electronically. This is a testament to the success and efficiency of the e-filing process. IRS Commissioner John Koskinen affirms their commitment to this process: “We encourage taxpayers to e-file their returns since it is the quickest, safest and most accurate way to file and the fastest way to get a refund.”

Tax professionals should also be aware of the increase in the use of the IRS’ direct deposit option for taxpayer refunds. To date the IRS has issued 7.6 million refunds worth $26.8 billion with the average refund worth $3,539 during the 2015 tax season. 7.3 million of these refunds worth $26.2 billion have been directly deposited to taxpayer accounts. It is clear that e-filing tax returns and receiving refunds via direct deposit is the way of the future for taxpayers and tax pros alike.
