RE: PRESS RELEASE - CONSUMER BILL OF RIGHTS REGARDING TAX
PREPARERS
Taxpayers who use
the services of paid tax preparers are entitled to protection from unfair
treatment, according to the Ulster County District Attorney’s Division of
Consumer Affairs (340-3260).
While most tax
preparers act within the law and treat their clients fairly, there are some
that don’t. The Consumer Bill of Rights
Regarding Tax Preparers describes your rights and contains important
information about how to protect yourself from unfair practices. This
publication is available from the New York State Department of Taxation and
Finance website at www.tax.ny.gov, or call
