Paying Taxes SucksThe terms for using these pages

The pages explain the work. They are not a signed engagement.

What these pages are

These pages describe how we split a tax withdrawal, keep books, and prepare a return. Reading them does not start an engagement. An engagement starts when both sides agree in a conversation, and the scope is the one we name then.

The examples are made up. No client's name, trade, or dollar is on the page. A threshold printed here is the state's line, not a quote for your year. No price for the work is printed here either.

What you can rely on

You can rely on the dates and the thresholds as descriptions of the public rules we checked. April 15, June 15, September 15, and January 15 are the estimate dates, moved to the next business day when one falls on a weekend or a legal holiday. A dollar line that belongs to one state lives on the page written for owners in that state, and it is a public illustration only. Rules change. The page is not a ruling for your facts.

You cannot rely on these pages as a promise that a debit will shrink, disappear, or be forgiven. We do not represent you in a collection case. An arrangement on the IRS payments page is their program.

Your messages

What you type in a form is yours. You give us permission to use it to reply and to do the work you asked about. Do not send a Social Security number, a password, or a bank login through a form. The consent line under the button is the contact permission, and it is limited to this request.

The phone under the page is the way to reach a person. We may record the fact of a call in the client system. We do not sell the contents of your note.

Limits

We are not liable for a decision you make from a general page without a conversation about your own facts. If a sentence on a page is wrong, tell us and we replace it on the page. The phone number under every page is how you ask for that.

Signed work of the kind a lender calls an audit, a review, or a compilation is not offered here. That limit is written in full on the disclosures page. These terms do not move that boundary.

These terms are governed by the law of the State of Texas, and any dispute belongs in the courts of Dallas County, Texas. We would rather fix a sentence than argue one. If a notice grows into a fight, we step out of the argument and can still assemble the papers the notice asks for.

A time on the calendar is not the engagement

Picking a time, or sending a note, asks for a conversation. It does not start the work. The work starts when both sides agree on a scope in that conversation. Until then these pages are reading, and the phone under the page reaches a person.

The calendar on the booking page stays empty until you open it. If it will not load, call. Nothing you type into a form is treated as a document for the return. Documents move on a separate channel after the scope is agreed.
