THOUSANDS OF BUSINESS OWNERS UNKNOWINGLY OVERPAY INCOME TAXES

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 5, 2004 -- Lawrenceville, GA � January 5, 2004 � According to some surveys, more than 70% of all business owners overpay their taxes. Many factors contribute to this problem. Number one contributor is simply the complexity of the tax process. There are 50,000 pages of tax code that can potentially affect the amount of taxes companies end up paying and those laws change constantly, over 430 changes were introduced just last year.

In addition, between February 1 and April 15th, the average tax preparer completes about 480 returns. With this overwhelming burden, it�s nearly impossible for an accountant to take the time to thoroughly scrutinize a company�s tax situation and evaluate the latest tax laws and guidelines that can be applied to help reduce tax liability. The result is a �rough draft� return that doesn�t take advantage of a tax issue, tax law, or fact that could support and justify a reduced tax liability.



A new company based in Lawrenceville, Georgia offers a solution. Strategic Business Solutions provides clients with a risk free way to potentially recover taxes that have been overpaid over the last three years. Kevin Gragg, owner of Strategic Business Solutions, states �We offer business owners something of real value for no out of pocket expense�that is a free second opinion on their taxes from some of the nation�s leading, independent tax amendment specialists�.

Strategic Business Solutions has teamed with AccuTax, based in Scottsdale, AZ, to offer this unique program. �I selected AccuTax to partner with because their amendment specialists have been processing tax recoveries since 1978 and they have the largest refund average in this business,� explained Gragg.



Most tax payers proceed with �blind faith� when having their taxes done by a professional. It�s very difficult, if not impossible to know, whether or not your tax preparer is doing the best possible job. A new study done by the Government�s General Accounting Office in October 2003 revealed that most taxpayers believe they benefit by using a paid preparer, but millions, in fact, are poorly served.

�Because tax review is our core and single focus, our amendment specialists can take the time to closely scrutinize returns, compare them with new and updated tax laws, and aggressively look for legitimate deductions that were either missed or not previously applied,� explained Gragg. �What most taxpayers don�t realize is that even one oversight or missed deduction can make a significant difference in the amount of tax a business owner owes.�
