This letter is to confirm and specify the terms of our engagement with you and to clarify the nature and extent of the services we will provide. In order to ensure an understanding of our mutual responsibilities, we ask all clients for whom returns are prepared to confirm the following arrangements.
We will prepare your 2024 federal and requested state income tax returns from information that you will furnish us. We will not audit or otherwise verify the data you submit, although it may be necessary to ask you for clarification of some of the information. We will furnish you with questionnaires or worksheets to guide you in gathering the necessary information. Your use of such forms will assist in keeping pertinent information from being overlooked.
Chase & Co Tax Solutions is not responsibile for returns completed without all the necessary documentation. After the client informs the preparer to proceed with completing the return, it is the client's responsibilty to ensure all applicable documentation has been provided. If the client is at fault for missing tax information that results in a tax amendment, there will be an additional $150 fee.
It is your responsibility to provide all the information required for the preparation of complete and accurate returns. You should retain all the documents, canceled checks and other data that form the basis of income and deductions. These may be necessary to prove the accuracy and completeness of the returns to a taxing authority. You have the final responsibility for the income tax returns, and, therefore, you should review them carefully before you sign them.
Our work in connection with the preparation of your income tax returns does not include any procedures designed to discover defalcations or other irregularities, should any exist.
We will use professional judgment in resolving questions where the tax law is unclear, or where there may be conflicts between the taxing authorities' interpretations of the law and other supportable positions. Unless otherwise instructed by you, we will resolve such questions in your favor whenever possible.
The law provides various penalties that may be imposed when taxpayers understate their tax liability. If you would like information on the amount or the circumstances of these penalties, please contact us. Your returns may be selected for review by the taxing authorities. Any proposed adjustments by the examining agent are subject to certain rights of appeal. In the event of such government tax examination, we will be available upon request to represent you and will render additional invoices for the time and expenses incurred.
Our fee for these services will be based upon the amount of time required at standard billing rates plus out-ofpocket expenses. All invoices are due and payable upon presentation. If the foregoing fairly sets forth your understanding, please sign the enclosed copy of this letter in the space indicated and return it to our office. However, if there are other tax returns you expect us to prepare, such as partnerships or corporate returns, please inform us by noting so just below your signature at the end of the returned copy of this letter.
