Taxpayer Bill of RIghts

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) this week announced the adoption of the Taxpayer Bill of Rights.  For the most part, there’s really nothing new here. The IRS does not necessarily have the “final word”. The Taxpayer Bill of Rights gives taxpayers certain taxpayer rights to challenge the decisions made by the IRS that impact their tax obligations and payment of those taxes. The Taxpayer Bill of Rights simply takes the existing rights and restates them into 10 broad categories; making them more visible and easier for taxpayers to find. Perhaps the most frequently asked questions regarding taxpayer’s rights concern the rights of appeal and challenge to IRS decisions and the right to retain representation in tax matters. The Right to Challenge the IRS’s Position and Be Heard provides taxpayers with the right to object and provide additional information not previously considered in response to adverse IRS actions. In those cases that a taxpayer disagrees with an IRS position and can provide additional information that may benefit the taxpayer, taxpayers have the right to present additional information to be considerate and expect a prompt response to their objections even if the IRS does not agree with their position. The Right to Appeal an IRS Decision in an Independent Forum gives taxpayers the right to a fair and impartial administrative appeal of most IRS decisions, and in less frequent cases, the right to take their tax cases to court. The right to appeals offers taxpayers a “fresh look” at their case by a new and impartial IRS representative where taxpayers were properly wronged or that new additional information was not considered. Perhaps a taxpayer’s most important right is the Right to Retain Representation before the IRS, giving gives taxpayers the right to retain the services of a knowledgeable, licensed tax attorney, certified public accountant (CPA) or enrolled preparer to represent their interests. Navigating through complex tax law and IRS procedure (in the case of tax problem representation before the IRS) often requires professional guidance to gain the maximum benefits available to a taxpayer. The IRS is not independent; having a contrary position to that sought by taxpayers to seek the assessment and collection of federal income taxes. It is not the obligation of the IRS to provide taxpayers with the maximum tax relief benefits that are available. The Taxpayer Bill of Rights has been redefined in the following 10 categories: The Right to be Informed The Right to Quality Service The Right to Pay No More than the Correct Amount of Tax The Right to Challenge the IRS’s Position and Be Heard The Right to Appeal an IRS Decision in an Independent Forum The Right to Finality The Right to Privacy The Right to Confidentiality The Right to Retain Representation The Right to A Fair and Just Tax System If you, or someone you know, has atax problemand needs professional assistance with dealing with the IRS, contact us for additional information to see how we can help you. ...read more

March Madness Has Begun

Weather Continues To Hamper Home Sales

Pending sales changed little from December to January the National Association of Realtors® (NAR) said today. That is not surprising as the bad weather NAR blamed for the lackluster December pending sales numbers did not change going into January either. NAR’s Pending Home Sales Index (PHSI) inched up 0.1 percent to 95.0 in January while the December number was revised up to 94.9 from the previously announced 92.4. January pending sales were 9.0 percent below a year earlier when the PHSI was 104.4. The December index reading was the lowest since November 2011 when it stood at 94.6. The index is a forward looking indicator based on contract signings for home purchases. Transactions are generally expected to be finalized within 60 days of contract signing.

Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

The Christmas season is a universal time of caring.  In Oregon, whether its Christians celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, Jews celebrating Hanukah or just neighbors enjoying traditions of colorfully wrapped gifts, beautifully decorated trees, brightly lighted houses, and cozy time with friends and family, most everyone has reasons to love this holiday season. We’ve been blessed this past year with the opportunity to meet many new friends and business partners across the United States.  We cherish these new friends and add them to the list of friends and neighbors who have enriched our lives. Our hearts go out to those whose lives are not so bright—to those who may be struggling financially without a meaningful job or suffering a breakdown in their health or family relationships. For you, we pray for peace to your souls, health to your bodies and inspiration to your minds. Do not hesitate to call on us, if we can be of service to you.   Next year will be life-changing for ML-Compliance and our affiliate companies. It will start with the birth of a new business venture, MLC Marketing, focusing on Residential and Commercial Essential Services – such as energy, gas, wireless phone, and merchant processing.   Truly, 2014 will be a significant year for the MLC family and, hopefully, for our clients and affiliates as well.  We hope to speak with you about exploring our new services and continuing to help your clients in the months ahead.   But for now, during this Christmas season, let’s take time and focus inward and consider how we’ve done this past year.  Let’s commit to being a little kinder and a little more compassionate, to giving a little more service to others, and seeking to pattern our lives a little closer to that of Jesus,the babe who was born in a stable and placed in a manger so very long ago, and whose example has made the world a better place for all of us.  In short, let’s do what we can in our own part of the world to promote peace on earth and good will toward man. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, MLC Family Companies ...read more

Jury Finds Countrywide Guilty of Mortgage Fraud

Countrywide Financial, acquired by Bank of America in 2008, was found liable for actions that resulted in the purchase of thousands of defective loans by Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  A federal grand jury found the former Countrywide Financial and former Countrywide executive Rebecca Mairone guilty of mortgage fraud on Wednesday in a whistle-blower generated civil suit.  Mairone had been chief operating officer of Countrywide's Full Spectrum Lending Division which was responsible for operating a program, implemented in 2007, called High-Speed Swim Lane, also know as "The Hustle."  The program was designed to speed mortgage processing but federal prosecutors said it lacked quality checkpoints and processes such as income verification.  The loans were then sold to or guaranteed by the GSE's under representations that they met the companies underwriting guidelines. Mairone was the only Countrywide official named in the suit. The government maintained that the 28,800 loans underwritten through the Hustle program were processed in as few as 10 days rather than up to 60 as in most programs.  The loans that ultimately defaulted cost the GSEs $131 million and they allege that Countrywide earned at least $165 million under the program.   A whistleblower brought the original suit against Mairone and her former employer; it was then joined by the Department of Justice.  Edward O'Donnell, also a former executive at the company, said he had complained repeatedly about loan quality standards used in the program.  He could be awarded as much $1.6 million for his role in the legal action. --------- Is Your Mortgage Illegal?

2013-2014 USA, CAMBIO IMPUESTOS CORPORATIVOS

2014 USA,  CAMBIO IMPUESTOS CORPORATIVOS Por Rafael Morel CPA MBA, 25 YRS TAX SERVE&ONLINE El Presidente Obama quiere para el 2014  una reducción  en los impuestos a las  grandes corporaciones y aumento en el pago de impuestos personales  a  los pequeños y medianos empresarios, empobreciendo mas la clase media. Las empresas grandes pagaran 12 por ciento menos que las empresas pequeñas y medianas. La posición actual entre  el Presidente Obama y el Congreso  Republicano es la siguiente:                              PRESIDENTE OBAMA                           CONGRESO REPUBLICANO   Impuesto a  Corporación            28 %                                               Menos 28% Corporación en Manufactura      25 %                                               Menos 25 % Impuesto Personal, hasta           43.4%                                             Menos 43.4 % Deducciones  del Ingreso, Pagando menos  impuestos        Menores                                            Mayores   Cambió  la penalidad por no presentar la forma de impuesto corporativo de la corporación tipo S, aumento en la administración del  Presidente Obama a $195.00 por mes por socios, hasta un máximo de $2,340.00 por dueño. Una corporación tipo S  con cinco dueños que no presente a tiempo las formas al IRS,  incurre en multa   máxima de $11,700.00, creando un peligro para los empresarios  dueños de la corporación tipo S. Este aumento en multas  hará que los pequeños y medianos empresarios elijan la corporación C, pagando un mínimo de impuesto de aproximadamente un 30 por ciento hasta 58 por ciento. La acción inmediata es llamar a nuestro congresista  AHORA para que favorezcan a los pequeños y medianos empresarios, los cuales son la médula de la economía de EUA. Para su mejor reducción de impuestos, llame a Rafael Morel CPA PA donde su primera consulta es gratis. ...read more
