Marge Connor had a suggestion from a friend to take the Tax Preparation Course<\/a> at H&R Block to become a tax pro 55-years ago, and her career is still going strong. In Sacramento, California, Marge is famous for her year-round advice as a Block Advisors<\/a> tax pro, assisting freelancers, contractors and small business owners in her community. She became a Certified Acceptance Agent<\/em> to help those who don\u2019t qualify for a Social Security Number, but still need a Taxpayer Identification Number to make sure everyone is taken care of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have some clients that have been with me for more than 40 years. I answer their tax questions, and I actually get to know them and their families. After so many years, they trust me, because they know I keep up on my education. They feel comfortable enough to refer others to me,\u201d Connor said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clients will vouch for her tax knowledge and care, but she also has the accolades to back her up. She earned a Henry W. Bloch Excellence in Client Service Award<\/a> in 2019 for helping clients navigate tax situations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of helping clients, she uses her experience to teach members of her community to be tax professionals themselves. She is highly regarded and sought after as an instructor for tax courses. Her expertise includes investments, real estate, charitable giving, ITIN, foreign income, retirement, multi-state income, farming, clergy, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of Connor\u2019s biggest inspirations is working for a forward-thinking and innovative company, specifically noting H&R Block\u2019s purpose: To provide help and inspire confidence in our clients and communities everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am working for a name brand that really cares,\u201d Connor said. \u201cClients will get the best results from the bottom line of their tax return regardless of if they owe. They will trust you because of H&R Block.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for Marge\u2019s biggest tax tip of 2022?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMany taxpayers in my community are unaware they need to make payments on retirements funds they withdrew during the pandemic. I\u2019m here to help clients navigate establishing estimated payments or adjusting wages to save them the surprise when filing. As long as you\u2019re in an H&R Block office, you\u2019re taken care of<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
