Caution!
Prepayments can be one of the most confusing things about your taxes.
People
forget about estimated tax payments they have made or they include the
amounts when they did not actually make the payment.
Double
Check these figures with your check records
to
be sure that you made these payments. Don't forget any overpayments
from last year that you asked to be credited to this year. Remember that
your fourth estimated tax payment is normally made in January of the
following year. For example, your last estimated tax payment for 1999
would be due in January of
2000.
If you have any carryforwards of
Capital Losses or Net Operating Losses, please include a copy of last
year's tax returns if we did not prepare it (see below).
