Show Notes
Roger and Annie welcome Alan Pinck, EA and moderator of Tax Talk Today, for a wide-ranging conversation about his transition from hospitality management to tax representation work. Alan shares war stories from the days of preparing returns by hand, explains why treating IRS auditors with respect yields better outcomes than adversarial tactics, and discusses the critical differences between examination and collections work. The conversation covers everything from ghost preparers and ERC problems to building a year-round practice, teaching strategies, and why the most important day of tax season is April 16th.
