Five Signs to Know if Your Tax Preparer is a Fraud

SACRAMENTO, California, March 17, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — It is a typical scenario. Your neighbor refers a tax preparer who helped him get a big tax refund. You go to the tax preparer. You tell him you’re not great at keeping records. The tax preparer says not to worry, he’ll estimate.

You get a big refund. You’re thrilled. The tax preparer says because he helped you get such a big refund, he’ll take 15 percent of it as part of his fee. You sign the return. You look at his signature line that only includes a business label. At least it’s not blank, right? Wrong. Below are common signs your tax preparer is a fraud.

Claims they are endorsed by the IRS – The Internal Revenue Service does not endorse tax preparers. It only recognizes certain credentials – certified public accountants (CPAs), enrolled agents or attorneys. They have unlimited representation rights before the IRS. Some states have additional standards for other tax preparers. For example, California requires unlicensed tax preparers to complete tax courses and register with California Tax Education Council (CTEC).

Doesn’t have a PTIN — Anyone who prepares federal tax returns for a fee is required by the IRS to have an individual Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) and include it on federal returns.

Signs with a label or as “self prepared” — Paid tax preparers are required to sign your returns. Beware it they sign it “self prepared” or use a business label.

Takes a percentage of your refund as payment — Beware of tax preparers who base their fee on a percentage of your refund or claim they can obtain larger refunds than competitors. The fee should be based on the complexity of your return, not your refund.

Suggests you direct deposit your refund to an outside account — Questionable tax preparers may tell you it is more convenient; however, it is one of the most common ways scammers steal refunds. Your refund should always go directly to you.

CTEC is a nonprofit organization that was established in 1997 by the California State Legislature to protect taxpayers against fraud. Visit ctec.org.

Moms Unite Through App To Help COVID-19 Childcare Crisis

LEHI, Utah, March 17, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — While school districts across the nation continue to close, many parents still need to work in order to provide for their families. With more than 26 million children now home during regular school hours, the need for safe childcare is at an all-time high.

<div id="prni_dvprnevid0467left" title="With more than 26 million children now home during regular school hours, the need for safe childcare is at an all time high. We invite parents…

The Momni App offers a timely solution to the current childcare crisis caused by the impact of coronavirus closures. By helping parents get in contact with local families to offer or receive childcare services, parents are able to find childcare that will not expose children to large groups typically seen at traditional daycares and schools. In addition, Momni also provides work from home opportunities for those hourly and contracted employees who may be without work during coronavirus related closures.

Due to the seriousness of this issue, Momni will be waiving fees on the platform through April 30, 2020. They hope this will help parents find the childcare needed at an affordable price.

Those that sign up as hosts have the opportunity to earn income by providing childcare to users registered as guests. Those that sign up as guests can locate hosts, request childcare, and make payments directly through the Momni app. Both guests and hosts are required to go through an in-depth verification process and have the option to leave reviews after every booking.

Founded in Utah, by mother and entrepreneur Karmel Larson, Momni is a caresharing app that allows users to sign up as guests, hosts or both. “We hope that this situation will bring our communities together,” says Larson, “This is something we can do to help support one another and ensure childcare needs are met.”

Australian Chart-Topping Band – The Buckleys – First Single “Money” Available Now; Family Trio’s Album ‘Breathe’ Coming Soon

LOS ANGELES, March 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — View The Trailer For Meet The Buckleys And The Official Video For Money, here.

<a…

LOS ANGELES, March 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — View The Trailer For Meet The Buckleys And The Official Video For Money, here.

The Buckleys, a three-‐piece band featuring siblings Sarah, Lachlan and Molly Buckley announced their new single “Money“ released today through Petrol Records/Universal Music Australia/UMe.

The Buckleys’ new single “Money” is their first worldwide release and embodies the band’s brand of “Hippie Country” – a genre representing the infectious personality and spirited conscience that the band maintains. The track was written by Sarah Buckley, who wrote with multi-platinum songwriters Phil Barton (Lee Brice/A Woman Like You) and Dave Thomson (Lady Antebellum/747) during her time in Nashville.

Since signing with CM Murphy‘s Petrol Records in 2019, the band has released two singles in Australia. The first “Daydream” catapulted the trio into the limelight, scoring a #1 single at Australian country radio, followed by second single, “I’m Comin’ For Ya (Love),” which reached #3. The success of the singles resulted in The Buckleys’ nomination for Qantas New Talent Of The Year award at the prestigious 2020 Country Music Awards Australian (Toyota Golden Guitar Awards) which recognize, celebrate and honor excellence and outstanding achievement in Australian country music.

Despite their young age (20, 18 and 17), the siblings from Byron Bay are no strangers to the music business. Established county music songwriters and producers including Emily Shackelton (Carly Peace/Every Little Thing), Marty Dodson (Kenny Chesney/Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven, Jennifer Hanson (Billy Currington/Let Me Down Easy) and Chad Carlson (who produced their single Daydream and Chase Rice’s Ignite the Night) have co-‐written songs with the band.

The Buckleys are only the second signing to Petrol Records since CM Murphy signed award-winning siblings and band of brothers, INXS in 2009. “The Buckleys represent everything that is important to me both professionally and personally and I am excited to have them join the Petrol / Universal family and watch the world fall in love with this unique and special band” says CM Murphy, Petrol Records founder & Chairman.

Sarah Buckley says, “Writing a song titled ‘Money’ was kind of sarcastic/ironic because like the song says, all I really had was a little change in my pocket and not much more, but I was having the time of my life. To me, the song is for and about all the teenagers out there who generally don’t have much coin to spend but are having a ball regardless! The word ‘Money’ is interchangeable with ‘fun.'”

From their writing to the production to the music video, The Buckleys’ vision was to create something that captured their high energy, positivity and spunk of some of their favorite live bands, particularly ones from the 60s and 70s.

“Money” is the first single from their debut album, Breathe, coming soon. The band has performed at numerous internationally renowned festivals, events and concerts and plan to perform for U.S. audiences later this year.

Youth With You Started with Battle, Broadcasting Globally with Subtitles in 8 Language

BEIJING, March 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — After a long time of expectation, the second season of Youth With You finally premiered on March 12, 2020. As a new attempt of idol-selection show, Youth With You pioneered the practice which complete a high standard post-production to meet local culture for multiple countries. The program will be presented on iQIYI APP with subtitles in 8 languages, including Chinese, English, Thai, Vietnamese,…

The superstar cast of Youth Producers’ Representative KUN, Dance Mentor LISA, Vocal Mentor Ella, and Rap Mentor JONY J is catching lots of attention. Besides, Youth With You launched ‘stage for mentors’ as an opening show which can prove mentors’ capabilities on stage before they become role models for the trainees.

LISA’s dance of In The Name Of Love & Attention got the whole crowd screaming for more. Many of the trainees look up to LISA as their idol. And some of the girls were moved to tears, saying that ‘even her hair was dancing’! Next, KUN perform one original singing-dancing YOUNG, firing the stage. Ella and JONY J displayed their vocal and rap skill in How Old Are You and MY MAN respectively.

In addition, the biggest change for the trainees in Youth With You is not the welcome party, but the one-on-one battle in the initial evaluation performance. Groups who picked the same song must battle it out, giving every mentor a chance to observe and compare their performance better. The four mentors kept the strict standard and watched each group’s performance carefully. What’s surprising is that there were no Class A trainees in first episode.

Although it was the first experience for LISA to join a variety show in China, she adapted to the rhythm of Youth With You and became friends with other mentors quickly. And according to internal sources, the lovely LISA had many emotional moments during the trainees’ performances, shedding tears of excitement and blushing from shyness.

For more exciting updates, please continue to follow Youth With You!
