## Resource

Roger and Annie kick off post-tax season with a checklist of what to do now — from chasing down e-file rejections to evaluating your firm's clients, staff, and workflow while it's all still fresh. They also cover the latest OBBA updates on No Tax on Tips, key IRS filing season stats from the April 15th Congressional hearing, and an urgent reminder about the Kwong v. United States penalty relief deadline that's closer than you think.
