Web-based Presentation Slated for November 30, 2006 at 2 p.m. EST
Parsippany, N.J., November 28, 2006 - It can be difficult to keep track of all the new tax changes that may influence your individual tax return. But now you can get some insight at no cost and from the comfort of your own home or office. On November 30, 2006 at 2 p.m. EST, Jackson Hewitt Tax Service® will present a free, 30-minute online seminar focusing on tax law changes affecting individuals. Attendees will learn about a variety of tax-related changes and updates, including the Energy Tax Act, Telephone Excise Tax Refund, Pension Act, charitable contribution changes, expired provisions and updates on inflation-adjusted deduction amounts.
"Enrolling in this online session is a great way for people across the country to make sure that they're not missing out on deductions or credits, allowing them to maximize any potential refund or minimize any tax liability," said Mark Steber, Vice President of Tax Resources at Jackson Hewitt Tax Service. "For example, taxpayers may be able to claim a refund for telephone excise taxes billed after February 28, 2003 and before August 1, 2006."
