What to do during busy tax season
If a procedure is not working, change it
. Procedures were designed to accomplish certain tasks in an efficient manner. If such efficiency is not being achieved and a better idea has been proposed, try it.

All tax work should be routinely monitored
to help prevent errors, and in turn, professional liability claims. Most tax-related professional liability claims arise from inadequate review of client data and completed returns, rather than inadequate training.

Summary
Tax season is busy, so preparing for it now will reduce the stress experienced January through April and help reduce exposure to professional liability risk. Pre-tax season training of personnel and proactive review of administrative procedures will improve efficiency through April 15th and beyond.
