Each fall, Liberty Tax Service offers classes to educate the public about individual tax preparation, and to clarify the latest tax changes. The only cost is a charge for books, which may be paltry in comparison with the cost of mistakes. Liberty Tax Service is actively recruiting bilingual preparers and tax school students. Registration is underway for October classes.

“It could be that you are overlooking tax deductions or making costly errors on your tax return and not even know it,” says John Hewitt, CEO and Founder of Liberty Tax Service. “Tax knowledge is power: it equates to tax savings and a marketable skill set. Increase yours by enrolling in Liberty Tax Service’s fall tax courses.”

Students learn the fundamentals of basic income tax preparation. Then they apply the tax code to prepare tax returns both on paper and on the computer. Liberty Tax School instructors cover all schedules, credits and forms that can be filed with an individual tax return. Topics include filing an amended return, and how to file as a sole proprietor business owner. After completing the course, students can utilize their new skill set by applying for tax preparer positions.

“Life’s changes such as marriage and having a child bring tax changes, and our courses can help people plan ahead. For instance, we spend a session addressing buying and selling a home and its tax implications,” said John Hewitt.
