No dead animals or insects yet, but tax season is young. I have not seen many individual returns so far, which is where I usually find such presents. Instead, I have been mired in corporations, S corporations, partnerships, and LLC’s.
In theory, you would think corporations go to the front of the preparation list since they are due March fifteenth, one whole month before partnership and individual returns.
In practice, partnerships come first. Why? Because all those partners want their K-1’s NOW so they can report their partnership earnings on their income tax returns.
Unless you are the parent of a college bound student who needs your individual tax return done just as soon as humanly possible for your kid’s FASFA application, in which case YOU get your return done first, even though many other people sent in their information before you did. Big Kahuna says jump, I say how high.
But I can secretly loathe you and your line-jumping ways, oh yes I can.
