ALL OTHERS NEEDING INDIVIDUAL ASSISTANCE

​

​

WHAT I AM NOT:

​

1. I am not a Federally Authorized Tax Practitioner.

2. I am not a Certified Public Accountant

3. I am not a Licensed Bookkeeper.

4. I do not operate a Public Tax Preparation Service.

​

WHAT I AM:

​

I am an Individual Consultant with more than 30 years of experience in the filing of Federal and State Income Taxes.

 

I have previously consulted with and helped dozens of individuals each year to properly file their taxes. The opinions I offered were solicited by each individual as to what I perceived would be their best course of action in order to greatly reduce the amount of their taxable income based upon my research and my experience.

​

WHAT I DO:

​

For the past 15 years, I have hired out to those individuals who prefer that I take the information they provide and enter it into a TurboTax Software Program and provide them with the results obtained from entering their information. Once completed, those individuals then either accept and file the completed results furnished or not. At face value this seems like tax preparation, and it is to a point, however, in reality these persons are essentially hiring me to do the typing and the entering of information into the software for them. They pay me for my opinion in the areas of importance to each of them and then decide whether or not to accept that advice. Everything is done under their direction. Each individual understands and agrees that I am not engaging in legal, accounting, or other professional advice.

 

​

ELECTRONIC FILING LIMITATIONS

​

Individuals who assist others in the filing of their taxes as described are limited to no more than 5 electronic filings per year without going to enormous expense. Due to the inconsistent nature of my clients, their numbers do not support the expense and other qualifying requirements for me to jump through all of the hoops just to be able to say that I prepare tax returns.

​

ELECTRONIC FILING MYTHS -

 

Is Filing Electronically always faster?

​

No. The return will come just as quickly if you mail your return. The speed of receiving a tax refund has less to do with it being filed electronically than it does as to whether or not the refund is to be direct deposited into a bank account. Even when the return is filed electronically, it is still at least 24 to 48 hours before it is either accepted or rejected by the IRS. Mailing the return only takes about 48 to 72 hours to arrive, so the difference in the time frame is so minute that it is not worth considering. If you are using a service that gives you the money right then and there on the spot, then they are simply advancing you the money. The return could be rejected and you could even have to return a portion of it, so be careful! It is good not to be in such a hurry to get some money that it causes you to make a bad mistake.

​

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT

​

Because I can still help you reduce your taxable income down to it's lowest possible position just by reviewing your information and pointing you to a few available options that you may not have considered, but you would have to be satisfied with mailing your return. What you would be doing is hiring me to put your information into the tax software. I will type that information in and perform the process of completing the information and supplying it to you for review and the proper filing. I am not being paid for entering your information into the program. I am being paid for the opinions and or suggestions that I will present for your perusal. 

​

Please review my statements below. After having reviewed the information, if you are still interested in my assistance I would be happy to help you. Just use the Book Online Module to schedule a time we can connect and discuss your needs as well as any other details that are needed.

NON-LIABILITY STATEMENT 

Every citizen of the United States of America who generates revenue over a certain amount within a year is required to report their income by filing a tax return. Each individual person is responsible for their own taxes, and the filing of those taxes. Marty Garrett Consulting is not a tax service. We do not prepare or file income taxes on behalf of any persons. Marty Garrett Consulting is not responsible or liable for the filing of your income taxes and or any outcomes resulting from the filing of your taxes.

​

AUDITS:

​

According to one source, an average of less than 0.07% of the American public is audited each year. That is approximately 1 in 16 people (who were required to file). Audits are actually rare in that most issues such as mathematically incorrect filings or incomplete information issues may be easily rectified through a simple written explanation and or correction, which many times results in favor of the individual taxpayer.

​

Our best advice to anyone worried about being audited is simple and clear. Never lie on your tax returns. Keep good records and make use of every advantage allowed by law. Using a method such as the one contained within our product actually strengthens the credibility of your tax filings in our opinion. This is because when you are taking advantage of what the law allows, it is easily spotted and therefore points to a well educated taxpayer operating within the guidelines allowed. There are more than enough legitimate credits and deductions to cause your individual tax responsibilities  to be reduced to their absolute minimum ad defined by law, so there is never a reason to lie. Needless to say that this advice will serve you well in every other segment of life as well.
