Important Message Regarding COVID-19

As the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation continues to develop in our communities, maintaining a healthy work environment for our staff and clients has been our top priority.

One of the joys in this profession is meeting with our clients face to face. However, as events continue to unfold, we are asking our staff, whenever possible, to temporarily avoid in person meetings and instead communicate with you by phone or video conferencing. As we navigate this new territory, please know that we are proactively implementing protocols for the health and safety of our staff and clients.

In that regard, we are also encouraging you to send your information to us electronically. We have secure data transfer options available. Please contact us if you need assistance.

We also want to make you aware that the IRS is considering an extension of the April 15 tax filing deadline for most individuals as well as small businesses as part of an effort to mitigate the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic.

We want to assure you that we are in business and fully equipped to serve our clients’ accounting and tax needs. Maintaining a healthy work environment for our staff and clients remains our top priority.

We have strongly encouraged our staff to begin working remotely. Even while working remotely, we are committed to providing you with dedicated service. We encourage you to utilize our electronic tools for transmitting your tax information.

We will continue to communicate with you as new information becomes available. We invite you to contact us at lbarlson.com or 763-535-8150 with any follow-up questions or issues.
