Verify/confirm you are a professional tax preparer (as is 'supposed' to be required when joining this Forum) and we might be more helpful. H*(( - I'd even apologize 😉
This looks suspiciously like a homework question... unless by some bizarre coincidence "Simon Jones" really IS your client. And if so, posting a client's real name on a public forum is a a MAJOR ethics mistake.
@Help5 thanks for the helpful information. Actually, just today I was just contemplating changing my name from IRonMan to NotHelpul, but after seeing your post I didn't want to possibly confuse the other professional tax preparers here wondering whether it is me or you posting. But SimonJones appears to be open, so maybe I'll apply for a name change to that. Do you know what form I need to submit to accomplish that?
