For most of the people in my current field, I think you will also agree that April is the most busy month during the whole year.
I think most of my peers not only busy at work, but also help with Tax filing. Sometimes not limited to only family members, that could include close friends and referrals.
My partner Cecilia and me also experienced the same situation. Tax filing is already her full time job and most of time she works from home. Whenever there is a potential client for us to work together, such as a basic calculation of expenses and revenue, basic financial statement analysis needed etc. I would probably step in to do this part. It's time consuming but I practiced a lot from these activities. Such as how to complete the schedule of CCA, line up the expenses in a table, and link the expenses and income data to my income statement and balance sheet. These stuff are never new to me, just the actual cases make most the points senses now to me. Then my friend will work on the data and draft her tax filling plan for the client.
In the whole month, Monday to Friday, I worked 8 am to 5 pm for my own full time job, and then after work. I immediate throw myself into the tax preparation calculation. And in the weekend, we meet each other to exchange the data and deal with inquiries.
I did not recall how's summer comes to the town, how's the weather suddenly changed to warm and nice season. For me, my mind are full of numbers and formulators.
