About
I am a homeschooling mother and Certified Public Accountant (CPA) combining my experience and knowledge to help homeschool organizations such as co-ops, support groups, music and sports programs. HomeschoolCPA discusses the "business side" of running a homeschool organization. I'll also discuss running a home-based business while homeschooling and dabble a bit in other areas like personal finance and taxes.

Tax Call-in Show
(view similar articles on Personal Finance and Taxes)
Does your local TV station have a call-in tax question show? WCPO here in Cincinnati has one evening where viewers can call an get their questions answered by a CPA. The Ohio Society of CPAs gets volunteer CPAs to man the phone lines for a few hours.
This year HomeschoolCPA will be volunteering a few of her precious hours to answer questions. I'll probably get my face on TV during the evening news, too! (What should I wear?!)
Watch the show on WCPO Channel 9 in Cincinnati on Wednesday March 5 from 5-7 p.m.
I hope I can be helpful to people. I hope the questions are easy like:
"I worked a lot, do I owe taxes?" (the answer is YES) or
"I had a baby on Dec 31 at 11:58 p.m. Do I get a deduction for him/her?" (YES)
and NOT something like:
"I sold my business, but have no idea of what the value of the equipment was or how much depreciation I took over the years. What do I do?" or
"I sold some stock this year that I received a long time ago and have no idea what it was worth or what was paid for it. What do I do?"
My fellow CPAs that encouraged me to volunteer said the questions are usually easy to answer. But I'm taking along my handy tax reference book with me anyway!

Oh and I bet you would look awesome in a green or teal shirt!
