NJ-NATP ANNUAL MEETING AND CONFERENCE

I just got the word on the New Jersey chapter of NATP’s 2008 Annual Meeting and Conference.

The Conference will be held on Thursday, September 18th from 8:00 AM to 5:15 PM (registration begins at 7:30 AM) at the Hilton Woodbridge in Iselin (is there a Hilton Iselin in Woodbridge?).

This year there is also a bonus session on Wednesday evening from 6:30 – 8:15 PM (registration at 6PM) on Estate Planning presented by a local lawyer – free for those who register for Thursday.

The Conference will discuss –

· NJ Department of Labor Issues – by representatives of the NJDOL
· Taxpayer Advocate Issues – by the Taxpayer Advocate for New Jersey
· Return Preparer Coordination (?) – by an IRS representative
· How to Protect Yourself From Your Clients (not a judo or karate class) - by an IRS representative
· Issues of Importance for Practitioners – by an IRS representative
· Ethical Issues and the Tax Preparer – by an IRS representative

The cost of the Conference is $185 for members and $215 for non-members if postmarked before 9/4/08, and $225 for members and non-members if postmarked after 9/5/08 or at the door. Lunch and “Famous Afternoon High Tea” is included. The cost for Wednesday evening’s session only is $40.00. Sandwiches will be served.

The Thursday all-day session will earn 8 CPE credits and the Wednesday evening session 2 CPE credits.

I usually do not attend the September meeting, as it has been on federal issues, but I expect to attend this year.
