REQUIREMENTS FOR TAX RETURN

Prepare an income tax return (with appropriate schedules) for the Smiths for 2019.

Make necessary assumptions for facts not stated in the problem.

Use the forms in the book or online- do NOT use software for this project. Handwritten forms is fine.

Prepare notes/comments on questions for return reviewer-critical part of the submission

This project is like an exam- and do not share your assumptions and/or answers with others. You will be asked to attest to that on the cover sheet-see comments below- that you must attach to your submission.

If a refund results, the taxpayers want it sent to them.

The Smiths do not wish to contribute to the PresidentialElection Campaign Fund. In the past several years, they have itemized their deductions from AGI (have not claimed the standard deduction option).
