An Ode to April 15!
Why is every year the same
When we play this taxing game?
"May 17th" turns out to be,
something we couldn't really foresee!
With estimates still due on April 15.
Folks do think the IRS is mean!
Costs us more than just one night
Making sure that all is right!
Until at the latest day,
We finally know what we get or pay!
Why these taxes have to be
Like a nasty little flea?
Once they bite you, that’s for sure -
Your life will never be like before!
Love or hate them,
Up to you...
but don't forget: Tax returns are due!
And if you don’t know what to do,
Ask TaxMama® - she'll tell you true !

Small Business T axes Made Easy
Well, my friends, the book is out and healthy.
The Kindle and audio versions are available.
You can get the audio book wherever audiobooks are sold - http://iTaxMama.com/4thEdition_Audio
I would really appreciate it if you have the book and like it –
to please post a review at Amazon.com .
This is the best version of the book ever.
And for those people in business, or starting a business, or with clients who operate a business, we have completed the 12-week course based on the book, at CCH CPE Link.
It turned out really well and people found the information extremely helpful!
The course follows each chapter of the book – but also provides help to deal with your business issues during this COVID19 shutdown and quarantine. Who knows, it might help you save your business – or your finances!
