Printing A Client Organizer / Pro Forma

A Client Organizer, or Pro Forma is a print out that allows preparers to gather tax data from their clients on a form that is easy for their clients to understand and follow. The Pro Forma follows IRS schedules and breaks down each line using common terms. Clients will use these forms to help organize their information for their tax preparation.  If you have prepared a taxpayer’s return in a previous year, information can be pulled from their prior year return so they may compare amounts and record any changes. These forms can be mailed to your clients before their visit to your office, or used internally for year-end planning, input sheets, etc. This will save you and the client time when they come to your office to have their tax return prepared.  It will also help your client with some preliminary planning before the preparation of the tax return.
