A Letter
A letter I got from my accountant’s office today:
April 18, 2008
Dear Ben,
Your 2007 tax returns were acknowledged as accepted by the IRS and the State of Illinois on April 15, 2008. There are balances due of $—.
Make your checks payable to “US Treasury” and “IL Dept of Revenue” and mail your payment voucher on or before April 15, 2008.
Sincerely,
Your Prompt Accountant Who Took A Month And A Half To Get Your Taxes Done…In The Nick Of Time!
Luckily I sent in my checks on the 15th, but if I hadn’t, this letter definitely would have reminded me to send them eight days ago. Thanks, Accountant!
