The National Conference of CPA Practitioners (NCCPAP) previously sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Yellen, IRS Commissioner Rettig and Treasury Deputy Assistant Secretary Mazur requesting that the April 15 due date be extended to June 15, 2021. At this time, NCCPAP is requesting that they reconsider this recommendation—not just for the personal income tax returns, but for ALL returns and payments that would be due April 15.
NCCPAP congratulates the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the IRS for their decision to extend the April 15 deadline for filing. “The past year has been extremely trying for everyone, especially for those who prepare income tax returns and advise businesses,” says Mark Stewart, CPA, National President of NCCPAP. He continues, “Since the beginning of the COVID crisis, CPAs have been under extreme pressure helping both our small business and individual clients with various government programs, as well as recent tax law changes, and how they can make use of them. Furthermore, the recent effect of the exemption of the first $10,200 of unemployment compensation for lower income taxpayers has been a monumental change—one rarely seen in March, in the middle of tax season—that retroactively changes prior year tax law. Practitioners as well as software providers desperately needed this extra time to adjust for these changes.”

Digital transformation is a strategy for using digital technologies, such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), to improve performance. While the process industries have used digital technologies for decades, the introduction of the Internet and other advanced communications methods, such as improved internal intranets, have eased implementation. This has helped to extend the same types of improvements seen in core manufacturing production processes into other operational areas, like reliability and safety. Read more >
