EDIT: I recommend working through Intuit Link. It’s fast and secure. The IRS and State has extended the deadline to July 15.
Covid 19 is quickly changing the way everyone does business. I am not having face to face appointments. 10-20 clients are submitting paper documents daily. So I’m observing social distancing, but is that enough?
I’ve asked several people who specialize in the field. I’ve received several different answers. Here’s what I’m doing. –
- When documents come in they are quarantined for three days.
- My work space (desk, keyboard, mouse) is sanitized between files.
- I am changing disposable gloves between client files.
I’d like to wear a mask, but they are not available. I hope I’m over reacting, but I’m 44, and I have asthma. I also have a lot of clients who are high risk. I want to be proactive. I hope you do as well. Here’s a couple of ways you can help…
Submit your documents online
This is the safest way to do it. We have a secure system through intuit link. All you need is a phone camera or a scanner. Mike is working from home and will be happy to walk you through it. This also avoids us surcharging you for shipping.
Only send paper
Please, no plastic, staples, or paperclips. The virus lasts longer on those surfaces.
I’ll be updating as this progresses. So far, it’s going quite well. Thank you for your support in these matters.
