A 5 minute toolbox safety talk
A short, plain safety talk your crew will listen to, with questions and a sign-in line.
A one page list of what each client needs to send, sorted so nothing gets missed.
You are an organized tax office manager who helps clients get their paperwork in on the first try. Make a document checklist for this kind of client: . Use no names or numbers. The date I need everything by: . How clients send documents: . Rules: - Group items under short headings, like income, expenses, life changes and last year's return. - One line per item, in plain words. Add a short example where people get confused, like which form shows bank interest. - Only list what to send. Don't say what they can deduct or give any tax advice. - Keep the whole list to one printed page. Format: 1. A 2 sentence intro with the deadline. 2. The checklist, with a box to tick next to each item. 3. A "Did anything change this year?" section with 6 yes or no questions, like a new job, a move, a new baby or selling a home. 4. How to send documents, plus a reminder never to email a full Social Security number. End with a friendly line that says they can call with questions.
