WITAXLADY Posted February 28, 2021 Report Posted February 28, 2021 so a couple days WI workforce called about some issue and I literally said I will deal with this in May - He said what? I replied this is a tax office and can't this wait? he did not know what to say.. Fri - 4 letters - WI sent out wrong ones stating they hadn't received a form adn payment - we're sorry we did a lot of them - so how many more clients will call on that,. Fed 940 - said the same thing! Then a nanny letter on the 941 and the check is already cleared and I cannot mail it in as they will get letters before the mail gets looked at - I called the IRS on other issues and they said call them - again and fax it - do you know how hard it is to get ahold of Tax practitioner?!! Then a letter mailed 2 months ago - now they got a levy letter - too bad, so sad - Tax pract said wait 2 weeks and see if we cashed it That is all that is happening letters! and still no refunds for about 12 clients - it is processing... and I also told tax prac to just focus on issuing refunds for a couple months pleeeaasseee so we can do taxes! Oh wauit - My Lent - and office is GIVE UP Negativity!!! Sorry Darlene - lovely WI 1 1 Quote
Lee B Posted February 28, 2021 Report Posted February 28, 2021 Darlene, I don't know how you cope with all the chaos going on around you. I couldn't do it. I feel truly fortunate that my client/ office situation is fairly stable and relatively calm. Darn, now I have probably jinxed myself. 1 2 Quote
Lion EA Posted February 28, 2021 Report Posted February 28, 2021 This year everyone seems to have something new or different or a question for the future (thank goodness, they're asking in advance or at least planning for 2021 or telling me about it now so I can convince them to plan), and so many of the new things happened during the pandemic and as late as 27 December. Everyone seems to need me to explain why I need their January 2021 EIP payment, and has to go look for it. Everyone seems to have at least one income item that they don't usually have, whether a new side gig or unemployment or dipping into savings or retirement funds. Everyone wants to discuss what Congress is doing now and will do the rest of 2021. And, I have a few that telephone me every time they hear something on the news or read something somewhere (they can't remember where) to ask me about it. And, PPP forgiveness on entity returns is driving me nuts; I'm sitting here with a partnership that won't balance and S-corp owners calling me to ask why their returns aren't ready. And, hubby keeps wandering in, talking... 4 Quote
Christian Posted March 3, 2021 Report Posted March 3, 2021 I thought you women married hubbies so they could wonder in and talk. Quote
Lion EA Posted March 3, 2021 Report Posted March 3, 2021 Only when I wander OUT of my office to talk. Hubby's supposed to help me proofread and drop off to a couple clients and shop and cook and NOT wander in and talk while I'm working! I try shutting my door, but he just knocks, starts talking, and wanders in -- with his shoes on, so I end up vacuuming. He also waters my plants, which is a sweet idea, but he leaves water on my wood furniture. I love him dearly, but a little less when I'm working! 2 1 Quote

Sounds like you're hitched to a really good guy, I'm sure you know that and are very happy because if you look around out there, there's very few of us left. 2 2 Quote
Lion EA Posted March 4, 2021 Report Posted March 4, 2021 It took me two tries! He's a great guy. 27 years this June. So, yes, I'm very happy and try to smile and thank him when he waters my plants. Plus, it's easy to smile and thank him when he keeps me supplied in chocolates. 4 Quote

Lion EA Posted March 4, 2021 Report Posted March 4, 2021 I sure worded that in a misleading way! He is younger than I am, but not by that much. 27th anniversary this June. 4 1 Quote

Sucks to have your birthday, spouse's birthday and anniversary all in a 4 week period during tax season. We try to make up for it in the summer. Tom Modesto, CA 3 Quote
