@sarasmckinney I will consider them. Old HP printers were bulletproof. Everything I have bought in the last several years has been a POS.

Can confirm! I have 2 10 yr old Brother printers that are still trucking right along and a newer model that scans front & back at the same time. The only Brother toner they’ve ever used was the cartridge they came with. I always buy the generic toner and drums.

Everyone’s printer needs are different but if you are like me and only printout text documents in B&W, Brother laser printers are a revelation. They will keep printing through a nuclear war.

@nickmeals I have one who received a letter saying they needed the 1310. We had already sent the 1310 with the original paper filed return.

Has anyone dealt with an issue of a deceased Taxpayer filing 1310, and now IRS is sending a letter saying the refund has to be direct deposited? Any help on this one? Seems like it's going to be a major headache.

@LizMpersonal I generally use Double Declining Balance with the switch to straight line 😁. (Same as MACRS for the GAAP folks)

If you’re not depreciating your assets using sum of years digits, are you really an accountant?

@stevenfcpa They shouldn’t be an underwriter if they need a tax return explained.

It looks like today's favorite activity is going to be explaining a tax return to an underwriter.

@wlthyaccountant We had to do that back in January. Heavy snow and freezing rain and the Governor declared a state of emergency so technically we didn't have a choice. I spent the day plowing out.

A guy I dated wrote a book. I don't want to read it, I just want to know if he says anything about me. Which LLM do we recommend for such research?

@MichiganMattCPA One advantage of practicing in a rural area with an older client base is that we still only take checks or cash.

Groups that could teach a master class in denial: - Toddlers who are not tired. - Clients who swear they have an easy return. - Tax Preparers who are not getting sick.

@kwilson020 I quit taking new clients late in busy season years ago unless their prior preparer died. In my experience they are rarely good clients.
