Don\u2019t wait to take your intellectual curiosity and execute some Google searches to find some basic answers, and then schedule a meaningful meeting in May, June or July. That\u2019s crazy talk. Instead just pepper your tax accountant\u2019s inbox on April 12. It\u2019s a search bar after all, right?
