During busy season what was the longest period you had gone through without showering 🤫?

Just accepted a formal offer for a remote position last week. I start in July and need to give my two weeks notice by Friday. Still need to do background and maybe drug test (I am not worried about it) but was waiting to make sure everything is sorted before giving my notice. I have started onboarding, doing surveys for equipment, received welcome emails from team and even started taking photos for badge ID. Should I give my notice or wait for the background check to come back and drug test.

Best way to negotiate? Was offered 110 when initial call the range provided was 105-125. No bonus or equity at this role. Don’t have another offer but do know that industry range is between 110-140ish. Number I want is 120k

Curious how anyone has dealt with a Client who only wants to engage with Managing Partners/Department Heads. Sorta tough when any of the day to day staff are seen as ‘beneath’ them.

Random question, does your firm use VPN, a remote desktop (like rdp or citrix), or something else to work remotely?

ETR and Payable roll is so confusing! I do compliance all year except one random provision project I’m on, and every year I’m re-humbled by his little I know. Can someone explain it to me like I’m 4?

Anyone ever told a recruiter you make more than you actually do to get a higher offer?

Does anyone have an ATT or know what an ATT designation is? Is this the UK equivalent of a US Enrolled Agent?

This is a great strategy even before the understaffing issues in PA, but being mediocre or just above average so you don’t burn out from PA seems like the ultimate strategy right now. If you can wait it out then you pretty much just move up by default since people are leaving or not even going into to the profession. You’ll eventually be a partner unless your firm sells to private equity.

I’m a little confused on the electric vehicle tax credit. I’m filling out Form 8936 and it appears to have a maximum credit of $2,500. However, I am reading that the maximum credit is $7,500 if your tax/AGI meet the criteria which it does in this case. What am I missing here? The form clearly shows $2,500 so where is the $7,500 coming from? Also, is there carryover to next year’s return if all of it isn’t use? Looks like maybe form 8834 if I’m reading it correctly?

Thank you.
