Caution !!!
The only
way to receive a refund is through the IRS. Pay stub or advance money received are usually
loans (based on your ability to receive a refund) with interest rates up to 750% plus in many
cases additional costs. E-Filing through the IRS usually takes 10 to 14 days to your bank account,
and less for the state.
IRS E-Mail
If you receive an IRS (looking) e-mail don't GIVE ANY INFO.
It's called phishing and you should report it to phishing@irs.gov (follow directions).

WRONG COUNTER
Number of people who do their own taxes (with or without software) and
think they have done them correct, when in fact they have done them wrong. It can be, however, considered patriotic
to considered to the national debt.
CHASING RETIREMENT
Saving for that "retirement carrot" seems to get easier and
easier. Congress wants you to really invest for your retirement. Could it be they know
something about Social Security they don't want to discuss? Do you think you will get
the carrot?
OUCH
!!!!
Did you know we stopped offering quick refunds around 1993? We did so because our clients would have
to pay approx. 400% to 700% interest for
the service. Today the interest rates are lower, however, there usually are large fees.
If you are paying for a quick refund ask how much interest you are paying. By law you must be furnished this information.
Did you also know that the IRS sends your refund at the same
time regardless if it is a quick refund or not. Why you might ask do you get it quicker?
It is actually simple. Whoever is offering you this service is establishing a bank account in your name. You are
then given a loan. When your refund is deposited into your new bank account the loan is paid. All this and high
interest just to receive your refund a few days quicker. If you owe someone (landlord) money it is more economical
to ask the person to wait a few days more. You could even offer to pay them $25 or $50 and still come out ahead.
Come On Down

Fox Tax is an IRS authorized provider
for all your electronic filing, and listed on IRS and WI websites.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ?
In a recent year Fox Tax clients received $1,554 dollars more per filer than the average filer for the same area (per
IRS data for zip code 54901). It's not fair to take all the credit. Those who prepared their own return(s) probably
paid more than they should have which would account for some of the difference.

To receive the child tax credit you must be under 17 at the end of the year. If you have
a dependent who turned 17 during 2007, then you will not receive the child tax credit. You may still claim the child
as a dependent and Head of Household.
What's This ?
The federal government is delinquent in paying $45,000,000 in
employment taxes. Do as they say, not as they do:)))))
Lottery Credit
Look at your tax bill
If you lived in your home your tax bill should
be reduced by the lottery credit. If not contact whoever you pay your taxes too to correct the problem and receive the
lottery credit.

Got you "shook"? |
Did you know that according to a GAO report, people who do their taxes overpay an average of $610.
In 1913 - the first year of the US Income Tax - a single individual got to deduct a personal exemption of $3,000.
For the 2000 tax year, a single exemption was $2,650. Well now. If the tax of 1% in 1913 rose to 15% in
2000, and you throw in a little inflation, the amount of a personal exemption should be
$45,000.00
So much for adjusting for inflation.
Also, in 1913 you did not have to file unless
you made $4,000. Adjusted for inflation,
you would not have to file today unless you
made $69,000. Would
you like to see how much taxes you would pay using a 1913 return adjusted for inflation? Go to our "Resources" page, scroll down, and you will find a link.

YOUR Largest Possible Refund |
Remember, the only thing better than you doing your own taxes, is to have Fox Tax prepare your return(s).
In 1963 the tax rate on over $200,000 was $156,820 plus 91% of that amount over $200,000.
Our forefathers revolted against taxation "Without Representation". Think what they would do if they
time traveled to the present and saw what taxation was like "With Representation".
You may NOT pay income taxes by using
pennies. It is against the law.
The IRS does not make laws regarding taxes,
penalities, collections, etc. Their BOSS,
the US congress makes the laws, and
the IRS enforces them.
Keep your "cool" when doing taxes.
