It’s that time of year again – the year-end statements are appearing in your mailbox, and the storefront tax-prep offices you never notice during most of the year seem to be blossoming like weird winter flowers.

Will this year’s tax-prep season be less awful and stressful than last year’s? And more important, are there steps you can take during this year’s season to save tax expense and put yourself and your practice onto a sounder footing for 2016 and beyond?

Ron Loberfeld will have answers for you. He and his firm provide accounting, audit, and tax services to individuals and small businesses in the Boston area and throughout New England.

Like all SPC meetings, this one will be interactive, and Ron will be glad to respond to your questions. But here are some topics likely to come up:

• Should you consider incorporation or some other form of business organization?
  
• As a consultant, how should you think about retirement planning – and what does that mean during tax season?
  
• What about deductions for office in the home?
  
• What about rental income and expense?
  
• What can you do to minimize your risk of an audit?
  
• What can you do if you are audited?
  
• What should you be doing to protect yourself and your consulting practice from identity theft?
