The postcard-sized Form 1040 tax return looks to be a reality
for the 2019 tax filing season, and Liberty Tax, a leading tax
preparation franchise, stands ready to help taxpayers understand
the new form and navigate the complexities of the Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act. Liberty Tax offices will provide educational opportunities for
taxpayers to learn more about the law and will continue to provide
the advice and information that taxpayers have come to value.
"For more than 20 years, we have helped taxpayers file their
taxes and gain a better understanding of the U.S. tax system," said
Liberty Tax CEO Nicole Ossenfort. "Next tax season will be no
different. We will continue to offer a friendly smile and the
professional tax assistance that millions know and trust from
Liberty Tax locations across the country."
A recent IRS survey showed that taxpayers identify paid tax
professionals as a valuable source of advice and information. Only
the IRS ranked higher than paid tax professionals on the survey.
Liberty Tax values the public trust and works to provide knowledge
to taxpayers.
Liberty Tax realizes that postcard-sized tax return, which
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said will be released next week,
is one of many changes that will face taxpayers. The Tax Cuts and
Jobs Act is the biggest shift in the tax code in more than 30
years. To help taxpayers better understand the new law and how it
will affect their bottom line, Liberty Tax will host Tax Talks at
locations across the U.S. The Tax Talks are free,
information-packed sessions led by tax professionals. They feature
PowerPoint presentations and question-and-answer periods. Taxpayers
can call 1-866-871-1040 or visit LibertyTax.com to find a location
near them.
