Interviews are from banks. Basically it is dawning on me that despite some stupid moves, I have SOMEHOW survived the Great Recession, and some very challenging personal crap over the past 10 years and am poised to be a leader in this industry. I don’t know how this happened, but it has.

How hard is everyone pushing their corporate clients to authorize nonresident assignees whose only 2020 US compensation was the value of their 2019 tax preparation?
My clients are pushing back on it this year, and I can't say I blame them. If I were in their shoes, I'd rather take the risk of not filing than the expense of filing again. From my own point of view, I don't really want to spend my time on such returns, either, even if the revenue and easy return are nice.
