Editor's Note
There's some interesting news in the tax world as we progress
to the end of the year. The IRS is ramping up its efforts to
obtain information about taxpayers with foreign bank accounts
and has signed an agreement with Liechtenstein to obtain
information. Meanwhile in the states, irate TurboTax users are
staging a revolt on Amazon.com over what they see as an
unwelcome price increase in their favorite tax software
program. AccountingWEB is unveiling its own version of tax
holiday cheer with a knock-off of "The Twelve Days of
Christmas," called "The Twelve Days of Tax Savings." Happy
holidays to all and enjoy a peaceful lull before the tax season storm.
Best regards,
Gail Perry, CPA
