TEN REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD
FILE YOUR TAX RETURNS AND REPORT THE CORRECT INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS
1. You will never get rich by not paying your taxes. Wealthy people
become rich by making a lot of money, which means that they do pay
taxes—just not more than they are supposed to pay. If you want to become
wealthy, it is just plain hard to hide all of that money from the IRS.
2. You cannot put your earnings in a bank account. When money that you
are trying to hide is deposited in a bank account, it creates a record
of that money. All money that deposited in a bank account is taxable
income unless you can prove otherwise.
3. You cannot live beyond your discounted income level. You cannot go
out and purchase a million dollar home with a ten thousand dollar
income. Even the mafia owns legal businesses through which they launder
illegal income and pay taxes on it.
4. The IRS will do a cost of living analysis on you. If the cost of
living for your family is greater than the income you have reported and
you have not gone further in debt such as additional credit card debt to
make those purchases, then the IRS will treat that difference as
unreported income and tax you on it.
5. You can never have too much to drink ever again. If you do and run
off at the mouth about how you are cheating on your taxes, then someone
will turn you in to the IRS for the reward—maybe your brother-in-law who
hates you.
6. You can never get divorced. Your ex-spouse will turn you in, file an
innocent spouse claim, stick you with all the taxes, and possibly get a
reward.
7. You cannot get a low-interest mortgage. To obtain a low-interest
mortgage, you will have to turn in a tax return to the mortgage company
as part of the mortgage application. In turn, they will have you sign an
IRS form that they will submit to the IRS to confirm that you have given
them correct income amounts. Since you will be applying for a “no-income
verification loan,” then you will have a higher interest rate because
you are deemed a higher risk.
8. You cannot afford an IRS criminal investigation. Even if you win an
IRS criminal case against you, you cannot afford the attorney’s fees
that need to be paid in advance. “How much?” you ask. Retainers will
start at $100,000 for a good criminal defense attorney knowledgeable
about the IRS defense process.
9. You cannot afford the interest and penalties. After six months, the
interest and penalties will approximate 30%; after four years, it will
be about 100% of the tax due. For example: on $5,000 of tax due, an
additional $5,000 in interest and penalties will be assessed.
10. After you go to jail, your spouse will divorce you, your kids will
not visit you, and the IRS will still come after you for the taxes,
penalties, and interest after you get out. But wait, there is more! The
interest and penalties continue to accrue while you are confined to your
very own 8 x 10 cell.
FOURTEEN STEPS TO GET THE IRS
OFF YOUR BACK
1. YOU are to assemble the following information:
• Your first name, middle initial, last name, date of birth, and social
security number;
• Your spouse’s name, middle initial, last name, date of birth, and
social security number;
• Date married;
• Home address;
• Home phone number, work phone number, and cell phone number;
• Home e-mail address.
2. YOU are to call our office at 425-485-7853 and ask for Sheryl. Tell
her that you have past due tax returns and that you have assembled the
above information. Also, if you own a corporation or a partnership that
has not filed returns, please tell to Sheryl so that she can collect
additional information.
3. SHERYL will take your information and use it to complete an IRS Form
2848—a power of attorney that allows Hans to call the IRS to determine:
• any past due balances that you may have with them (that you may not
even know about),
• the list of years for which you have not filed tax returns (the IRS
only sends out notices for years in which they think that you owe them
and not for the years where you might have a refund coming), and
• to obtain the wage, income, and mortgage interest documents for those
years.
4. SHERYL will e-mail to you a copy of the Form 2848 for you to sign and
date. She will also e-mail you an invoice for $100.00, which is our fee
for contacting the IRS—the phone call to the IRS and the acquisition of
the tax data from them can take upwards of one hour or more. In
addition, she will e-mail you the following information sheets that you
are to complete for us to minimize your taxes.
• Dependent information and itemized deductions (important if you own a
home);
• Capital gains and losses (if you sold mutual funds or stocks);
• Rental property (if you owned rental property);
• Business income and expenses (if you own a sole proprietorship);
• Common list of business expenses;
• Childcare;
• Higher education credits;
• Additional information.
5. YOU will verify that we are a real CPA firm by going to:

6. YOU will fax back to us at 425-485-5120 the following documents:
• The signed and dated the Form 2848—IRS power of attorney;
• The signed $100 invoice with your Visa or MasterCard number and credit
card expiration date;
• If available, a copy of the last tax return that you filed;
• Copies of any IRS letters and notices that you have received
concerning the past due tax returns;
• Tax documents for the years that you have not filed tax returns such
as W-2s, 1099s, and 1098s for mortgage interest;
• The completed document information sheets that apply to you,
7. HANS will call the IRS to determine:
• any past due balances,
• the years that have not been filed, and
• to obtain the wage, income, and mortgage interest information for
those years.
8. Once we have received the above information from you and from the
IRS, then we will e-mail you:
• a list of the years that you have a balance due or have not filed,
• an engagement letter, and
• an estimate of what it will cost you to have us prepare the returns
for you less a credit of $25 from the original $100 invoice.
9. HANS will call you to answer any of your questions before you engage
us to prepare the tax returns. At this point, we have no idea how much
you owe or how much your refund might be since we have not prepared your
tax returns.
10. YOU are to:
• sign the estimate and fill in your Visa or MasterCard number with the
expiration date thereby agreeing to pay 70% of the total estimated cost
before we begin the preparation of your tax returns.
• sign and date the engagement letter, and
• fax the estimate and engagement letter to us at 425-485-5120.
Please remember that the 70% payment is non-refundable and is to cover a
portion of our cost of preparing your tax returns—it also makes you
accountable to follow through on filing the past due tax returns.
11. WE will begin to prepare your past due tax returns. If there is any
other missing data, we will e-mail you for the information; so watch
your e-mail account daily.
12. When the returns are completed, WE will e-mail you:
• a list of the tax by year including estimated penalties and interest,
• a list of the refunds that you can expect to receive, and
• an IRS form 9465 installment agreement for each tax year that you
owe—please notice that the IRS does charge a fee for installment
agreements that they will add onto your balance due, and
• an invoice for the remaining 30% of the estimate.
13. If YOU want an installment agreement to pay your past due taxes, YOU
are to complete a separate form 9465 (lines 3-12) for each year that you
owe and fax the completed forms to us. We will include this information
with your tax returns.
14. Once YOU have:
• signed the final invoice,
• filled in your Visa or MasterCard number with the expiration date, and
• faxed the invoice back to us at 425-485-5120,
• then we will mail the tax returns to you.
If YOU do not pay the remaining 30% balance due, then you will NOT
receive your tax returns—it has occurred too many times that we have
done the work and people do not pay for the tax returns, which means
that they continue to be a non-filer with penalties and interest adding
up.
