I just received in the mail, courtesy of the AGA's 1st Clerk of record, an IRS mailing containing Form 941 and related documents (looks like it might be a big family). Form 941 is the required form for reporting monthly (or quarterly, the instructions are confusing on this point) employment taxes. Since we have none, we only pay independent contractors, do we have to file stating "zero" and just ignore the form? Beats the heck out of me. Oh, poop, I'm back in the IRS interpretation business -- just when I thought I was out, they pullllll me back in. . . [trust me, my Pacino is much better in person -- so real that you'd be tempted to ask, "Hey, Al, what was with all that grunting in 'Scent of a Women'?] I think we are not required to file, but I'm still looking into it. I suggest again to the Board and Committee that the AGA enlist the professional services of a tax accountant. Relying upon me, or any novice, for these purposes is not the safest way to go. If indeed the applicable tax filing requirements are simple, then I expect that the tax accountant's fees would be modest. sh Plants and DVDs for sale at the AGA table at the ACA 2005 Annual Convention, Fort Worth, Texas on July 21-24, 2005.
