Caution Urged in Choosing Tax Help
The IRS warns taxpayers to choose tax preparers carefully. Most firms are reputable but some operate unscrupulously. Taxpayers remain liable for taxes due and must provide all W2s and records. Avoid blanks, pencil returns, or refunds sent to the preparer. Guarantees or special IRS relationships should be avoided.
