Since we were engaged with other Corporate Clients as well, as a result of our Free Tax Return
Evaluation Services offered to their employees, we were shocked to learn that majority of
taxpayers claimed certain unallowable living expenses such as conveyance, meals, rent, even
laundry as part of Itemized Deduc
Deductions while they were working at the Employer Location or
claimed for more than 12 months while working at the same Client Location.
Location
Not only that we also noticed that some taxpayers:
Did not fill in their Form W4 properly and ended up paying heavy taxes at the end of the
tax year with underpayment penalty.
penalty
Filed Resident Individual Tax Returns (1040/1040A/1040EZ) electronically through online
portals ignorant of the fact that they were
were Nonresident Aliens who have to file Form
1040NR/NR-EZ
EZ manually.
manually
Missed claiming Home Mortgage Interest on their Second Home in Foreign Country (e.g.
India).
Missed claiming benefits of US
US-India Tax Treaty for
Nonresident Aliens on F/M/J Visa. Some
erroneously applied this clause while they were on
H1/L1 Visa.
Missed claiming their Spouse/Kids in India though
they qualified as US Resident Aliens per IRS
Publication 519.
Missed reporting their Foreign Income like Foreign
Salary, Interest, Dividends,
Dividends etc. on their US Tax
Returns and ignored filing FBAR
FBAR. This resulted in
payment of huge penalties and fines to IRS.
Erroneously claimed the Foreign Income Exclusion
on Form 2555 instead of Foreign Tax Credit on
Form 1116 to avoid double taxation
taxation.
Missed claiming Erroneous Withdrawal of Social
Security & Medicare Taxes while they were on
F/M/J/Q Visa.
Missed filing the State Income Tax Return for the state they lived in just because the
Employer issued W2 from the state he/she worked.
Missed filing City/County Income Tax Returns in which they resided/worked.
Important: The Average Refund on an Amended Tax Return has been more than $2,000!!!

We introduced the concept of FREE Tax Return Evaluation Services with the intention that
we can reach out to people who have already filed their returns to revisit the tax returns to
ensure accuracies and file revised tax returns, if necessary.
•
This does not necessarily mean that their tax filing through online/other service providers
is incomplete or incorrect, but doing so would help them avoid any tax compliance issues &
audit risks with their tax returns in the near future, especially the time when they are
trying to have their permanent place of abode in US.
•
This
is FREE Evaluation will make sure that there are no extra-ordinary
extra ordinary items in their tax
returns or huge refunds.
•
Though there may be very few who will go back to IRS admit that they filed an incorrect tax
return, we at AO Tax want to make clear that we educate
educate the client on the tax deductions
one is eligible for so that they can correct it in due time.
•
This is in view of the fact that it is the taxpayer who is fully responsible to IRS/State for
the information provided in his tax returns though the returns might have been prepared or
filed with professional help of a tax preparer or any other online tax service provider.
We request you to please recognize the merit of the above FREE service offer and avail it for
your own wellbeing.. Our team is excitedly waiting to serve you and we promise our high
knowledge practicing merit always.
