How Will Early Tax Calculations Save Time?
Do you have a client that is going out of business before the end of the quarter? Their return can be completed once tax rates are updated. That gives a preparer more time to spend on the rest of their clients.

If a client does not drive through the end of the quarter – once the trip data is entered, their return can be finished early. Again, this gives preparers more time to spend on the rest of their clients.

When clients wait until the last minute to send in their trip data, work for the preparer stacks up. The challenge is completing all the quarterly filings on time. Trip data is not usually perfect and may require extra time to resolve gaps or questions. The more that can be completed early, the easier meeting the filing deadline becomes.
