May 02, 2008 - Glen Wielandt of Roni Deutch Tax Center™ Franchise was featured in a new advice article on WhatHappensNow.com offering tax tips for victims of disaster or fire.
“I was glad that the people of WhatHappensNow.com chose to interview me on this topic,” notes Glen Wielandt, Vice-President of Operations for Roni Deutch Tax Center™ Franchise. “When taxpayers are the victims of a fire, flood, or any other natural disaster, the last thing they think about is their taxes. However, not taking proper care of your taxes can result in penalties and fees that can make things even harder for these victims.”
“Anybody who is involved in a disaster should see a tax preparer for the intricacies of the forms,” says continues Wielandt. “If you have a fire and you lose all your paperwork, you’ll need to {first} get copies or transcripts of tax records from the IRS.”
With tax season recently ending most people will probably not think of taxes again until next January, but when your life gets shaken up by a fire, storm, or other disaster it is essential to think about your tax liability. Especially, if there is damage to your house or property.
“It’s important to find out the fair-market value of your home before the casualty and after of the casualty,” continued Wielandt. “This is critical right now because home prices are going down.”
Mr. Wielandt was appointed Vice President of Operations for the Roni Deutch Tax Center™ in April 2007. He has a long history of working in the tax industry and is highly regarded among people working in taxes. Wielandt has worked for companies including Liberty Tax Service, Jackson Hewitt and H&R Block. He also performed tax duties as a VITA officer while serving in the Army.
