SCOTTSDALE – Tax season, it’s around the corner. As it has been for more than 20 years, Dane Holdings is here to help. Founder/owners Danny and Melissa Meyer encourage clients to bring in any tax-related paperwork early, even if they haven’t received it all, so the Meyers can get it in the system. Even with a new president in office, there are no changes to 2016 filings. However, the folks at DH Taxes are always educating themselves on new laws and will pass on their knowledge so clients’ best interests are served.
The Meyers’ daughter, Justine, offered tips to avoid ID theft. Only interact with the Internal Revenue Service through IRS.gov. Often SPAM emails provide links to bogus sites designed to steal information. Don’t click on links from unsolicited IRS emails, and keep in mind, the IRS never emails out-of-the-blue. Additionally, the IRS will not call you and claim you owe money and must pay immediately. Taxpayers have the right to question and/or appeal any monies due, so if you aren’t given that option, hang up! Remember, if you don’t think you owe the IRS any funds, you probably don’t.
Dane Holdings offers a handy (free) tax organizer online at dhtaxes.com for anyone interested. Another tip Justine suggested was to use credit cards for each deduction you may have (medical, landlord/rental properties, biz expenses), so you need not wade through your personal statements. She also recommends the app Expensify and reminds everyone to keep track of mileage for medical appointments and freelance/self-employed travel. DH Taxes goes above and beyond for their clients, even offering audit assistance. It doesn’t matter what tax bracket you are in, the team at Dane Holdings gives clients 110 percent!
DH Taxes is located at 23415 N Scottsdale Rd # 104 and is currently open Mon-Sat. Phone 480-473-4619 for an appointment.
