Prepare your business taxes for ’10 and get ready for ‘11. Review what the IRS wants to know from you and how to report it on the Schedule C for your business. This is a class for business owners who need a basic understanding of their 1040 Schedule C tax forms. We’ll also talk about what to do with the numbers once you have them. We can’t guarantee you won’t get audited, but this class will make it less likely. This class is free.

Intermediate S Corporation

Tuesday, May 10 in Alameda
Law Office Conference Room, 1516 Oak Street, Suite 109
10:00 am – 2:00 pm

This is an intermediate class, so we won’t be discussing how to fill out the form. Rather, we’ll be looking at how to quickly solve the most common problems encountered with preparing an 1120S, and what to do now to reduce the likelihood of future problems. Class is limited to 5 participants, so you’ll be able to ask all your questions.

“This is the best class on S Corps I’ve ever been to, and I’ve been to a lot.”

The fee to attend is $225, but reduced to $175 for NAEA/CSEA members. CPE credit of 4 hours available for Enrolled Agents who attend, no credit currently available for CTEC, but it’s a good class.
