Dear Tax Client,
We are looking forward to working with you again this year. Beginning January 2, you can call us to schedule a day and time with your preparer. We will need to have your tax documents one full week before your scheduled appointment in order to give our staff time to assemble and review your information. You can mail your information to us or drop it off at our office (we have a letter drop slot next to our door if you come by after hours). For those of you who prefer it, we have upgraded the document upload on our website. It should be a smoother process than in years past. And it will now take excel spreadsheets.

Education credits: If you had children in college during either semester in calendar year 2024, we recommend bringing us their tax information (before they file their own return) as well as your own so you can get the most out of the Education Credits.

Energy and vehicle credits: There are many energy credits for home improvements and for purchasing vehicles. There are very specific brands and energy saving requirements for these credits. Be sure to get and save the paperwork that comes with these items..

Reminder: Property Tax Bills. We need to have a copy of your current property tax bill (in most towns it is a bill that covers part of 2024 and part of 2025. Even if your property taxes are escrowed with your mortgage, you will need to get a copy from your town clerk .

Our annual checklist is enclosed for you to use in collecting your information.

Remember, you can take advantage of our offer to take 10% off our fee for preparing your return by getting the majority of your tax documents to us by February 15th.

Wishing you all a happier, healthier and more prosperous New Year,

The folks at Independent Tax Service
