Hello Everyone,

Thanks for coming by the AMR Tax website.  Please read this message before attempting to schedule with me for your 2023 income tax work.

In September 2023, I was diagnosed with neck and throat cancer.  This was quite the shock and really put me off my game.  My first clue was when I found one of my lymphnodes swollen up like a goldfish on the right side of my neck.  Scans revealed there was also a large (almost halfway across my throat) tumor inside my throat.  Talk about a real surprise.  Not my best day. Like most people in this position, I soon found myself lying on the radiation table staring at the ceiling through a rather restrictive sarcophagus.  Not fun, I have really bad (had?) claustrophobia and had to take meds just to stay there.  Anyway, we ran the seven weeks of radiation and three rounds of chemo.

I have finished the treatment schedule on December 21, 2023.  I’m in the “it’s going to be worse before it’s better” phase now.  Let me tell you, it’s true…..

Have I mentioned I’ve almost completely lost my voice..?

The normal (as told to me) recovery time from this sort of thing is several months to get your energy and strength back.  I sure hope not…but it could be.

All that just to get to the point…we have to make some changes to my schedule for TY 23 being prepared in 2024.  So, let’s get started:

• I’m not taking new people this year. You are new if you didn’t come to AMR Tax last year.
• AMR is taking new people. My staff is very talented and can handle the work.
• Zardo CPA shares office space with AMR Tax. Roxanne Zardo, CPA, is available for your business income tax returns.
• I’m changing my normal 30 minute appointment schedule to one hour appointments. This will result in losing half my spots.
• I request, if your return is small/easy you schedule with Lily. She is my apprentice and can take care of your work. Or drop off your work.  The Staff handles most of the drop off work.
• If you are the Trustee of a Trust or the Administrator of an Estate, please talk to Mr. Perry. He is our Trust and Estate Specialist.  Perry is very experienced and does most of the Trust/Estate work I collect during tax season anyway.

I’m keeping the online booking closed for now.  I need to see how this is going to work out.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
