Linking up with other tax professionals

Linking Up with Other Tax Professionals

It is interesting in the tax business the dynamic between competitors. We have noticed this in our new Pronto Tax Class and RenewCTEC.com efforts. Through these online income tax courses (and the marketing of them), we have had the opportunity to connect with many tax professionals. These experiences have somewhat changed how we view competition in the tax business.

For example, we connected through LinkedIn with a tax consultant named Chris Lee, the owner CEL Financial Services, a Fillmore CA income tax preparation company. Chris was talking in one of the LinkedIn Groups about what he was keeping busy with in the off-season.

earned Income Eligibilty Requirements

New Earned Income Credit Requirements to Verify Eligibility

In theory the Earned Income Credit is a commendable idea.  The Earned Income Credit is meant to assist those whose income is below a certain level with a tax refund "bonus" and on the face of it that is what it has done.

The problem has been the enormous amount of fraud that the program has engendered. 

There are many situations where a married couple, who have lived together all year, have chosen to have one spouse file head of household, claim the children and receive a great deal more refund than they would have if they had filed married, joint.  This enables the spouse to appear to be a single parent with little income and therefore receive a hefty Earned Income Credit. This is fraud but it is also common.

The other consideration is that many individuals who are living together have literally chosen not to marry because it would make such a large difference in their refund. In our view, tax law should definitely not be legislated in such a way that it discourages two individuals who otherwise would marry from doing so.
