The Internal Revenue Service encourages taxpayers to perform a mid-year tax withholding check-up as several new factors could affect their refunds in 2017. <u>Taking a closer look at the taxes being withheld can help ensure the right amount is withheld, either for tax refund purposes or to avoid an unexpected tax bill next year.</u></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
The withholding review takes on even more importance this year given a new tax law change that requires the IRS to hold refunds a few weeks for some early filers in 2017 claiming the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Additional Child Tax Credit. In addition, the IRS and state tax administrators continue to strengthen identity theft and refund fraud protections, which means some tax returns could again face additional review time next year to protect against fraud.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
"With these changes, it makes good sense on many different levels to check on your withholding and plan ahead for next tax season," said IRS Commissioner John Koskinen. <u>"It's a personal choice if you want to have extra money withheld to get a bigger tax refund, but you have options available if you prefer to have a smaller refund next year and more take-home money now."</u></div>

When considering refund issues, the IRS wants taxpayers to be aware several factors could affect the timing of their tax refunds next year. A major change will affect some early tax filers claiming two key credits who won't see their refunds until after Feb. 15.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<u><b>Beginning in 2017, a new law requires the IRS to hold refunds on tax returns claiming the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or the Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC) until mid-February.</b></u> Under the change required by Congress in the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes (PATH) Act, the IRS must hold the entire refund – even the portion not associated with the EITC and ACTC -- until at least Feb. 15. This change helps ensure that taxpayers get the refund they are owed by giving the agency more time to help detect and prevent fraud.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
As in past years, the IRS will begin accepting and processing tax returns once the filing season begins. All taxpayers should file as usual, and tax return preparers should also submit returns as they normally do. Even though the IRS cannot issue refunds for some early filers until at least Feb. 15, the IRS reminds taxpayers that most refunds will still be issued within the normal timeframe: 21 days or less, after being accepted for processing by the IRS.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
''This is an important change to be aware of for some taxpayers used to getting an early refund," Koskinen said. "We'll be focusing on awareness of this change throughout the fall, but it's important for taxpayers who might be affected by this to be aware of the change for their planning purposes. <u>Although we still expect to issue most refunds within 21 days, we don't want people caught by surprise if they get their refund a few weeks later than previous years."</u></div>

<u>As the IRS steps up its efforts to combat identity theft and tax refund fraud through its many processing filters, legitimate refund returns sometimes get delayed</u>. While the IRS is working diligently to stop fraudulent refunds from being issued, it is also focused on releasing legitimate refunds as quickly as possible. </div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
The agency encourages taxpayers to check their tax withholding now.<u> Whether they prefer more earned money during the year or a large refund, checking withholding can ensure people don’t receive an unexpected tax bill next year.</u> Making these checks in the late summer or early fall can give taxpayers enough time to adjust their withholdings before the tax year ends in December.</div>

People who have advance payments of the premium tax credit made to their insurance company on their behalf should report life changes to their Marketplace. Changes in circumstances that should be reported include moving to a new address and changes to income or family size. Reporting these changes will help individuals avoid large differences between the advance credit payments and the amount of the premium tax credit allowed on their tax return, which may affect their refund or balance due.</div>

Self-employed taxpayers, including those involved in the sharing economy, can use the Form 1040-ES worksheet to correctly figure their estimated tax payments. If they also work for an employer, they can often forgo making these quarterly payments by instead having more tax taken out of their pay.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<u>Normally, an eligible distribution from an IRA or workplace retirement plan can only qualify for tax-free rollover treatment if it is contributed to another IRA or workplace plan by the 60th day after it was received.</u> In most cases, taxpayers who fail to meet the time limit could only obtain a waiver by requesting a private letter ruling from the IRS.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<u>A taxpayer who missed the time limit will now ordinarily qualify for a waiver if one or more of 11 circumstances, listed in the revenue procedure, apply to them.</u> They include a distribution check that was misplaced and never cashed, the taxpayer’s home was severely damaged, a family member died, the taxpayer or a family member was seriously ill, the taxpayer was incarcerated or restrictions were imposed by a foreign country.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
Ordinarily, the IRS and plan administrators and trustees will honor a taxpayer’s truthful self-certification that they qualify for a waiver under these circumstances. Moreover, even if a taxpayer does not self-certify, the IRS now has the authority to grant a waiver during a subsequent examination. Other requirements, along with a copy of a sample self-certification letter, can be found in the revenue procedure.</div>

<b><u>The IRS encourages eligible taxpayers wishing to transfer retirement plan or IRA distributions to another retirement plan or IRA to consider requesting that the administrator or trustee make a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer, rather than doing a rollover</u></b>.

Did you move due to a change in your job or business location? If so, you may be able to deduct your moving expenses, except for meals. Here are the top tax tips for moving expenses.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<b><u>In order to deduct moving expenses, your move must meet three requirements:</u></b></div>
<ol style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>The move must closely relate to the start of work</strong>. Generally, you can consider moving expenses within one year of the date you start work at a new job location. Additional rules apply to this requirement.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Your move must meet the distance test. </strong> Your new main job location must be at least 50 miles farther from your old home than your previous job location. For example, if your old job was three miles from your old home, your new job must be at least 53 miles from your old home.<br /></li>
<li><strong>You must meet the time test.</strong> After the move, you must work full-time at your new job for at least 39 weeks in the first year. If you’re self-employed, you must meet this test and work full-time for a total of at least 78 weeks during the first two years at your new job site. If your income tax return is due before you’ve met this test, you can still deduct moving expenses if you expect to meet it.</li>

<li><strong>Reimbursed expenses. </strong> If your employer later pays you for the cost of a move that you deducted on your tax return, you may need to include the payment as income. You report any taxable amount on your tax return in the year you get the payment.<br /></li>

If you or anyone in your family purchased health coverage through the Marketplace and had advance payments of the premium tax credit paid in advance to your insurance company to lower your monthly premiums, it is important to report life changes to the Marketplace when they happen. <u>Moving to a new address is one change you should report. </u>Other things to report include changes in your income, employment, family size, and gaining or losing eligibility for other coverage. Reporting life changes as they happen allows the Marketplace to adjust your advance credit payments. This will help you avoid a smaller refund or unexpectedly owing taxes when you file your tax return.</div>

The Internal Revenue Service today announced important changes to help taxpayers comply with revisions to the Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) program made under the PATH Act of 2015. <b><i><u>The changes require some taxpayers to renew their ITINs beginning in October.</u></i></b></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<u>The new law will mean ITINs that have not been used on a federal tax return at least once in the last three years will no longer be valid for use on a tax return unless renewed by the taxpayer</u>. <b>In addition, ITINs issued prior to 2013 that have been used on a federal tax return in the last three years will need to be renewed starting this fall, and the IRS is putting in place a rolling renewal schedule, described below, to assist taxpayers.</b></div>

If taxpayers have an expired ITIN and don’t renew before filing a tax return next year, they could face a refund delay and may be ineligible for certain tax credits, such as the Child Tax Credit and the American Opportunity Tax Credit, until the ITIN is renewed.</div>

<strong>Who Has to Renew an ITIN</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
T<u>he IRS emphasizes that no action is needed by ITIN holders if they don’t need to file a tax return next year. </u>There are two key groups of ITIN holders who may need to renew an ITIN so it will be in effect for returns filed in 2017:</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Unused ITINs.</strong> <u>ITINs not used on a federal income tax return in the last three years (covering 2013, 2014, or 2015) will no longer be valid to use on a tax return as of Jan. 1, 2017</u>. ITIN holders in this group who need to file a tax return next year will need to renew their ITINs. The renewal period begins Oct. 1, 2016.</li>
<li><strong>Expiring ITINs.</strong> <u>ITINs issued before 2013 will begin expiring this year, and taxpayers will need to renew them on a rolling basis.</u> The first ITINs that will expire under this schedule are those with middle digits of 78 and 79 (Example: 9XX-78-XXXX). The renewal period for these ITINs begins Oct. 1, 2016. The IRS will mail letters to this group of taxpayers starting in August to inform them of the need to renew their ITINs if they need to file a tax return and explain steps they need to take. The schedule for expiration and renewal of ITINs that do not have middle digits of 78 and 79 will be announced at a future date.</li>

<strong>How to Renew an ITIN</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<u>Only ITIN holders who need to file a tax return need to renew their ITINs</u>. Others do not need to take any action. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
Starting Oct. 1, 2016, ITIN holders can begin renewing ITINs that are no longer in effect because of three years of nonuse or that have a middle digit of 78 or 79. To renew an ITIN, taxpayers must complete a Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, follow the instructions and include all information and documentation required. <b>To reduce burden on taxpayers, the IRS will not require individuals renewing an ITIN to attach a tax return when submitting their Form W-7.</b> Taxpayers are reminded to use the newest version of the Form W-7 available at the time of renewal which will be posted in September (Use version “Rev. 9-2016”).</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
There are three methods taxpayers can use to submit their W-7 application package to renew their ITIN. They can:</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">

To make this renewal effort easier and reduce paperwork, <u>the IRS will be offering a family option for ITIN renewal. </u>If any individual having an ITIN middle digit of 78 or 79 receives a renewal letter from the IRS, they can choose to renew the ITINs of all of their family members at the same time rather than doing them separately over several years. Family members include the tax filer, the spouse and any dependents claimed on their tax return.</div>

ITINs are for federal tax purposes only and are not intended to serve any other purpose. ITINs that are only used on information returns filed with the IRS by third parties do not need to be renewed. An ITIN does not authorize one to work in the United States or provide eligibility for Social Security benefits or the Earned Income Tax Credit. ITINs are not valid identification outside the tax system and do not establish immigration status.</div>

<li><strong>Exclusion of Gain. </strong> You may be able to exclude part or all of the gain from the sale of your home. This rule may apply if you meet the eligibility test. Parts of the test involve your ownership and use of the home. <u>You must have owned and used it as your main home for at least two out of the five years before the date of sale</u>.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Exceptions May Apply.</strong> There are exceptions to the ownership, use and other rules.<u> One exception applies to persons with a disability. Another applies to certain members of the military.</u> That rule includes certain government and Peace Corps workers.

<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong><u>Don’t Ignore It.</u></strong> You can respond to most IRS notices quickly and easily.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Follow Instructions. </strong> Read the notice carefully. It will tell you if you need to take any action. Be sure to follow the instructions. The letter will also have contact information if you have questions.<br /></li>
<li><strong>Focus on the Issue.</strong> IRS notices usually deal with a specific issue about your tax return or tax account. Your notice or letter will explain the reason for the contact and give you instructions on how to handle the issue. If you do not understand what you are supposed to do or have questions, you should contact your tax advisor.<br /></li>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
Changes in circumstances that you should report to your Marketplace when they happen include:</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><u>Increases or decreases in your household income</u> including, lump sum payments; for example, lump sum payment of Social Security benefits</li>
<li>Marriage</li>
<li>Divorce</li>
<li>Birth or adoption of a child</li>
<li>Other changes affecting the composition of your tax family</li>
<li>Gaining or losing eligibility for government sponsored or employer sponsored health care coverage</li>
<li>Moving to a different address</li>
</ul>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
Reporting the changes when they happen will help you avoid getting too much or too little advance payment of the premium tax credit. Getting too much means you may owe additional money or get a smaller refund when you file your taxes. Getting too little could mean missing out on premium assistance to lower what you pay out-of-pocket for your monthly premiums.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
Changes in circumstances also may qualify you for a special enrollment period to change or get insurance through the Marketplace. In most cases, if you qualify for the special enrollment period, you generally have 60 days to enroll following the change in circumstances.

Each year, the Internal Revenue Service mails millions of notices and letters to taxpayers for a variety of reasons. If you receive correspondence from the IRS:</div>
<ol style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li>Don’t panic. You can usually deal with a notice simply by responding to it.</li>
<li>Most IRS notices are about federal tax returns or tax accounts. Each notice has specific instructions, so read your notice carefully because it will tell you what you need to do.</li>
<li>Your notice will likely be about changes to your account, taxes you owe or a payment request. However, your notice may ask you for more information about a specific issue.</li>
<li>If your notice says that the IRS changed or corrected your tax return, review the information and compare it with your original return.</li>
<li><u>If you agree with the notice, you usually don’t need to reply</u> unless it gives you other instructions or you need to make a payment.</li>
<li><b><u>If you don’t agree with the notice, you need to respond.</u></b> Write a letter that explains why you disagree, and include information and documents you want the IRS to consider. Mail your response with the contact stub at the bottom of the notice to the address on the contact stub. Allow at least 30 days for a response.</li>
<li>If you have questions, call the phone number in the upper right-hand corner of the notice. Be sure to have a copy of your tax return and the notice with you when you call.</li>
<li>Always keep copies of any notices you receive with your tax records.</li>
<li>Be alert for <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type%3Dclick%26enid%3DZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTYwNDE5LjU3OTc0ODYxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE2MDQxOS41Nzk3NDg2MSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MDc5MzM3JmVtYWlsaWQ9bGFuY2V3Z3VyZWxAZ21haWwuY29tJnVzZXJpZD1sYW5jZXdndXJlbEBnbWFpbC5jb20mZmw9JmV4dHJhPU11bHRpdmFyaWF0ZUlkPSYmJg%3D%3D%26%26%26128%26%26%26https://www.irs.gov/uac/Tax-Scams-Consumer-Alerts&source=gmail&ust=1466778852485000&usg=AFQjCNGYNs9YBNeQipEWA1zR4Z7y-F1hHw" href="http://links.govdelivery.com/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTYwNDE5LjU3OTc0ODYxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE2MDQxOS41Nzk3NDg2MSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MDc5MzM3JmVtYWlsaWQ9bGFuY2V3Z3VyZWxAZ21haWwuY29tJnVzZXJpZD1sYW5jZXdndXJlbEBnbWFpbC5jb20mZmw9JmV4dHJhPU11bHRpdmFyaWF0ZUlkPSYmJg==&&&128&&&https://www.irs.gov/uac/Tax-Scams-Consumer-Alerts" style="color: #7e57c2; position: relative; z-index: 0;" target="_blank">tax scams</a>.

<b>Bartering is the trading of one product or service for another.</b> Often there is no exchange of cash. Some businesses barter to get products or services they need.

If you contribute to a retirement plan, like a 401(k) or an IRA, you may be able to claim the Retirement Savings Contribution Credit, also known as the Saver's Credit. This credit can help you save for retirement and reduce the tax you owe. Here are some key facts that you should know about this important tax credit:</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Formal Name.</strong> The formal name of the Saver’s Credit is the Retirement Savings Contribution Credit. <u>The Saver’s Credit is in addition to other tax savings you get if you set aside money for retirement</u>. For example, you may also be able to deduct your contributions to a traditional IRA.</li>
</ul>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Maximum Credit.</strong> <u>The Saver’s Credit is worth up to $4,000 if you are married and file a joint return and up to $2,000 if you are single. </u>The credit you receive is often much less than the maximum. This is partly because of the deductions and other credits you may claim.</li>
</ul>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Income Limits.</strong> You may be able to claim the credit depending on your filing status and the amount of your yearly income. You may be eligible for the credit on your 2015 tax return if you are:</li>
<ul>
<li>Married filing jointly with income up to $61,000</li>
<li>Head of household with income up to $45,750</li>
<li>Married filing separately or a single taxpayer with income up to $30,500</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Other Rules.</strong> Other rules that apply to the credit include:</li>
<ul>
<li><u>You must be at least 18 years of age.</u></li>
<li><u>You can’t have been a full-time student in 2015.</u></li>
<li><u>No other person can claim you as a dependent on their tax return</u>.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Contribution Date. </strong> You must have contributed to a 401(k) plan or similar workplace plan by the end of the year to claim this credit. However,<u><b> you can contribute to an IRA by the due date of your tax return and still have it count for 2015. The due date for most people is April 18, 2016.</b></u></li>
</ul>

<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Age Rules.</strong> You must be under age 70½ at the end of the tax year in order to contribute to a traditional IRA. There is no age limit to contribute to a Roth IRA.</li>
</ul>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<li><strong>Compensation Rules.</strong> <u>You must have taxable compensation to contribute to an IRA.</u> This includes income from wages and salaries and net self-employment income.

Many people find it necessary to take out money early from their IRA or retirement plan. Doing so, however, can trigger an additional tax (early withdrawal penalty) on top of the income tax you may have to pay. Here are a few key points to know about taking an early distribution:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; padding-left: 30px;">
1. <strong>Early Withdrawals. </strong> <u>An early withdrawal normally means taking the money out of your retirement plan before you reach age 59½.</u></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; padding-left: 30px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; padding-left: 30px;">
2. <strong>Additional Tax.</strong> If you took an early withdrawal from a plan last year, you must report it to the IRS. You may have to pay income tax on the amount you took out. If it was an early withdrawal, you may have to pay an additional 10 percent tax.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; padding-left: 30px;">

3. <strong>Nontaxable Withdrawals. </strong> <u>The additional 10 percent tax does not apply to nontaxable withdrawals. They include withdrawals of your cost to participate in the plan. Your cost includes contributions that you paid tax on before you put them into the plan.</u></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.5px; padding-left: 30px;">

4. <strong>Check Exceptions.</strong> There are many exceptions to the additional 10 percent tax. Some of the rules for retirement plans (401K, 403B, etc) are different from the rules for IRAs.</div>

<u>The Internal Revenue Service announced today that Federal income tax refunds totaling $950 million may be waiting for an estimated one million taxpayers who did not file a federal income tax return for 2012</u>. <b>To collect the money, these taxpayers must file a 2012 tax return with the IRS no later than this year's April tax deadline.</b></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
"A surprising number of people across the country overlook claiming tax refunds each year. But the clock is ticking for taxpayers who didn’t file a 2012 federal income tax return, leaving nearly $1 billion in refunds unclaimed," said IRS Commissioner John Koskinen. "We especially encourage students and others who didn't earn much money to look into this situation because they may still be entitled to a refund. <u>Don't forget, there’s no penalty for filing a late return if you’re due a refund.”</u></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
<span style="line-height: 15.6px;">In cases where a tax return was not filed, the law provides most taxpayers with a three-year window of opportunity for claiming a refund. <u>If no return is filed to claim a refund within three years, the money becomes the property of the U.S. Treasury.</u> For 2012 tax returns, the window closes on April 18, 2016. The law requires the tax return to be properly addressed, mailed and postmarked by that date.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
The IRS reminds taxpayers seeking a 2012 refund that their checks may be held if they have not filed tax returns for 2013 and 2014. In addition, the refund will be applied to any amounts still owed to the IRS, or their state tax agency, and may be used to offset unpaid child support or past due federal debts, such as student loans.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
By failing to file a tax return, people stand to lose more than just their refund of taxes withheld or paid during 2012. Many low-and-moderate income workers may not have claimed the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). For 2012, the credit is worth as much as $5,891. The EITC helps individuals and families whose incomes are below certain thresholds. </div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15.6px;">
Taxpayers who are missing Forms W-2, 1098, 1099 or 5498 for the years 2012, 2013 or 2014 should request copies from their employer, bank or other payer. <span style="line-height: 15.6px;">Taxpayers who are unable to get missing forms from their employer or other payer should go to IRS.gov and use the "Get a Transcript by Mail" button to order a paper copy of their transcript and have it sent to their address of record. Taxpayers can use the information on the transcript to file their return.</span></div>
