When two people fall in love, they tend to be blind to life’s realities. The last thing they want to do is bring up issues that might generate conflict, and let’s face it, the topic of taxes is definitely turbulent!
That’s where you, the tax professional, comes in! Learn how to ask the tough questions before your client(s) officially tie the knot! Alert your client to potential IRS offsets, like past-due taxes, child-care, and student loans. Save your clients time and feel more confident in charging them for your planning services. They can walk into the marriage with their eyes open – and they’ll love the value you bring!
