Liberty Tax, Inc. (NASDAQ:TAX)
Liberty Tax CEO John T. Hewitt will join 20 participants,
including members of the Mexican government, on July 13-14 in San
Antonio, Texas, for a high-level discussion on the most recent U.S.
tax season and the effects of tax policy on Hispanic taxpayers. The
event is hosted by the National Commission for the Protection and
Defense of Users of Financial Services (CONDUSEF).
The two-day event will provide the perfect platform for Liberty
Tax to share information about:
- New rules regarding Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers
(ITINs)
- Immigration enforcement and its effect on taxpayers
- Tax credits
Liberty Tax is a leading tax preparation franchise, and the
Company’s outreach to Hispanic taxpayers is robust. The Company has
Hispanic-certified Liberty Tax Service locations and the
SiempreTax+ national brand. SiempreTax+ offers tax preparation in
both Spanish and English and delivers additional services that
Hispanic consumers appreciate. These services include driver’s
license application assistance, passport photos, and free
application and renewal assistance for ITINs.
“We know and understand our customers, and we provide taxpayers
with services they can trust,” said Hewitt. “This tax season made
us aware of a few concerns among some Hispanic taxpayers,
especially in regards to the increased immigration enforcement
under the Trump administration.”
Hewitt will provide insights from the tax season and help the
assembled participants understand tax credits and deductions that
apply to taxpayers filing with an ITIN. He will also share
information about SiempreTax+, which recently was named a Top New
Franchise by Entrepreneur magazine.
