Back from the IRS National Tax Conference, and already making up for missed office time! One of my favorite clients has already brought me two trays of treats to keep me plump while I work on return extensions this week!

Referrals are the greatest compliment a small business can receive.

To thank my amazing clients for spreading the word, I’m introducing a Client Referral Program!

✔ Refer a friend or family member
✔ When they complete a paid appointment
✔ You receive a $25 credit toward next season’s tax preparation & planning (up to $100)

Thank you for helping my business grow!

I tried. I really did.

Cleared off the truck, threw it in 4WD, and headed to the office like a determined New Englander.

But... the office parking lot hasn't been plowed yet - and it's still snowing. As much as I'd love to be siting in my office, looking out the window at the spender of winter, I made the executive decision to turn around and come back home.

I'm choosing to see this as the universe's way of saying: "Ruth, it's time to work on the business, not just in it."

So today's agenda includes:

* Updating the website for RES Consulting & Tax Services LLC
* Fine-tuning the referral program
* Tackling some of that business planning I've been putting off
* And maybe... just maybe... getting a little housework done.

Stay safe and warm out there. And if you can, take a minute to reminisce about your youth - when snow days meant cocoa, sledding, and absolutely zero responsibilities.

Taking the anxiety out of tax time, one client at a time - even from home today.

Welllll Southington… here we go.

I had a client in my office today who happens to be meteorologist (because of course I did), and his forecast for downtown Southington is 12–16 inches of heavy snow through late Monday. This isn’t a dusting. This is heavy, “cancel your plans and find the good shovel,” snow.

So after some deep thought — and realizing my clients prefer smaller tax payments over bigger snowbanks — RES Consulting & Tax Services LLC willl be closed throughout the snowfall. I'll reopen the office on Tuesday.

My weather forecasting client shared his graphics, with more scientific accuracy than the groundhog… yet somehow, same dramatic outcome.

Now don’t worry about me — I’ll be fine. I’m that rare Connecticut resident who genuinely loves a good snowstorm. I'll be happily watching the snow pile up out there while working through client tax forms, answering emails, and dreaming of making snow angels!

Clients, family & friends... I handle the tax stress while Mother Nature makes the winter wonderland.

So stay safe. Stay warm. And please don't throw your back out with the shoveling! I'll need you upright for your tax appointment!

In case you missed it... New this tax season!

The IRS will no longer send paper checks. Direct Deposit is the way to go, and gets your refund to you much faster!

If you have a balance due, the IRS offers ways to do this electronically, as well. This process reduces late fees and penalties for many!

Ask your tax preparer about your options!

Paper checks were neato, but now we have a faster way to get you your refund. Direct deposit is the bees’ knees. You can get your refund in 21 days or less. If you need to make a payment, our electronic payment options are nifty. Paying electronically is like greased lightening and helps you avoid penalties and interest.

Get ready to make your payments burn rubber. Visit www.irs.gov/modernpayments.
