Depending on your niche, it will determine how much or how little you communicate with your clients. A majority of the correspondence is done via email. However, there are times where you will need to speak with the client over the phone. All clients are required to fill out a Tax Intake Form. The form is available via link and PDF, you can email or text the link to your clients. The PDF version of the form is fillable and printable. Each partner must make sure that each client has the right ID for the taxpayer and any dependents. Prior to submitting the return, an email with very important steps for the taxpayer to follow will be sent to the email that the client provided on the intake form.
