Tax Tips 

by S. Kathryn Kucera, CPA 

NEED MORE TIME? 

April 15 (this year, the 18 th ) isn’t far off. Do you need more 

time to gather your tax information? Then ask for it! An 

individual may request a six-month extension of time to 

file Form 1040, to October 15 using Form 4868. No reason 

is necessary. The request must be postmarked or e-filed by 

the due date; no late extension requests will be considered. 

Your next question is “will it cause me to be audited?” 

and the answer is NO! In fact, many tax professionals 

believe the opposite, that it might reduce audit chances. 

Note, the filing extension is not an extension of time to 

pay any balance due. If necessary, and if possible, a 

payment should accompany the extension request to 

avoid interest and possible late payment penalty. 

Trust me on this: There are not enough accountants on 

the planet to prepare all returns by their original due 

dates. In the big picture, extensions are a necessity, or the 

system would fall apart. Only by spreading the work over 

a longer period of time can the profession as a whole even 

hope to produce quality work for so many taxpayers. 

Form 4868 is available in your tax software, 

online at www.irs.gov. 

Filing by April 15 is a lovely thing, but 

there are no awards handed out for doing 

so. So, extend that return! 

DID YOU OVERLOOK 

SOMETHING? 

When I look over prior year returns for 

new clients, I often see that a deduction 

was missed or that there was another 

error of some kind. In most cases, this can 

be fixed by filing an amended tax return, 

Form 1040X. 

The general rule is that you have three 

years to amend a return. If you filed your 

2013 return by April 15, 2014, you have 

until April 15, 2017 to amend it. 

Form 1040X must be paper-filed; it is 

not yet possible to electronically file 

them. For smooth processing, various 

attachments must be included. They 

usually are not a do-it-yourself project; 

professional assistance is recommended!

Spring Cleaning 

We simply love the warmth and coziness of wintertime, but there is something else 

that we anticipate at the end of winter even more: the start of spring. Our hearts fill 

with joy and positivity thanks to its rebirth, renewal and re-energizing sentiment. It 

prompts us to make a fresh start within ourselves and in our homes. And we are not 

alone–people all over the world have practiced this same ritual for many centuries. 

SPRING CLEANING RITUALS AROUND THE WORLD 

Spring cleaning is a time-honored ritual for a reason. In China people clean their 

houses, clothes and spirits in anticipation of Chinese New Year or Spring Festival. 

They do this to get rid of bad luck and misfortune that may have accumulated during 

the previous year. Once the house is tidied, it is forbidden to touch the floors with a 

broom, otherwise you risk sweeping out all the good luck that entered the house at 

the turn of the year. 

People in Iran have a similar ritual on the 21st of March each year. They call it Khaneh 

Takani, which means “shaking the house.” And that is exactly what Iranian people do. 

Everything gets a thorough cleaning: from beds and rugs to curtains and clothes and 

everything in between. Fresh scented flowers are brought into the house to renew the 

positive energy so both the new year and spring can arrive. 

In Thailand, people celebrate new spring beginnings with the festival of Songkran, 

where they clean their houses and take extra care to thoroughly cleanse all images 

and statues of Buddha in their possession. This tradition is then done in public during 

a parade, as people pour water mixed with perfume and fragrant herbs on one another 

to symbolize blessings and good luck in the new year. 

SPRING CLEANING AND YOU 

Why do we feel the need to clean our environments with the coming of spring? Part 

of it is the urge to finally open all windows and clear the winter mustiness that has 

settled there. On a psychological level, we are also sweeping out the dark winter mood 

in order to welcome the positivity of spring energy, just like ancient civilizations did. 

In this way, a clean house brings us peace of mind and clarity. But how do we start this 

immense spring cleaning ritual? The answer is quite simple: make a list and divide it 

up into smaller tasks, so you can feel the satisfaction of ticking off each item. What 

follows is an example of a spring cleaning outline: 

1. CLEAN WINDOWS 

Start with one of the most visible issues—when the spring sun starts shining through 

your windows, you can see every bit of dirt on them. Combine water, distilled vinegar 

and liquid dish soap in a spray bottle and spray it against the glass. Use a fibre cloth to 

wipe it on, and a squeegee to remove excess liquid. 

2. DECLUTTER 

Before you do a deep clean, declutter it first. This means 

throwing away anything you haven’t used in the past twelve 

months. Avoid throwing odds and ends into a drawer, 

because they will eventually find their way out and create a 

mess. 

3. CLEAN ROOMS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM 

Spring cleaning is about the things that you overlook during 

your day-to-day cleaning routines. Vacuum the ceiling, clean 

the lamps, and use a damp cloth to clean walls and doors. 

Don’t forget light switches and door handles—these are 

typically covered with grime. 

4. RENEW YOUR BEDROOM 

Organize your closets and prepare for a wardrobe transition. 

Remove all clothing you haven’t been wearing in the last 

twelve months and put them in bags for good will. Take your 

curtains and your winter coats to the dry cleaner. Combat any 

stale winter odors with scented candles or fragrance sticks. 

5. A FRESH LOOK IN THE BATHROOM 

Toilets, sinks and tubs get cleaned regularly, but spring 

cleaning involves a different approach. Discard outdated or 

unused products. Replace old towels with new, luxurious 

ones. Reorganize your shelves for maximum efficiency. 

6. DEEP CLEAN YOUR KITCHEN 

Search your cupboards and pantry and discard any outdated 

products. Replace dish and tea towels as well as the mops 

you’ve been using the entire year. Clean the fridge and defrost 

the freezer. Make sure you check all the food and throw out 

anything that has been lying around for too long. 

7. DON’T FORGET THE OUTSIDE 

Clean your patio furniture and wash pillow covers. Use a 

vinegar spray to dissolve green build up on teak and wooden 

furniture. Throw out any pots or other garden accessories 

that haven’t survived the winter in tact. 

By creating a spring cleaning ritual out of these seven steps, 

you’ll notice that it isn’t nearly as daunting as it sounds. And 

when it’s all said and done, you will be ready to welcome the 

coming year with a clear mind and an uplifted spirit.

EXCHANGE STUDENTS GET THE TEXAS TREATMENT 

What is the most Texan thing to do for out of town visitors? A group of 

teachers and students visiting Foster and Lamar Consolidated high 

schools from Ping Tung, Taiwan got the full tour. 

“We’ve tried to give them the full experience,” said Foster High School 

Assistant Principal Brian Forshee. “The students were a mix of city and 

rural students and we took them to the Ag Barn. Many had never touched 

a live chicken.” 

NOW HIRING! 

APPLY TODAY! 

Five adults and 15 students from DongGang Senior High School, located 

on the southwest coast of the island of Taiwan, spent 12 days at Foster 

High School. The students stayed with host families and shadowed a host 

student. The students are part of an exchange program involving Lamar 

CISD and Ping Tung Taiwan. 

“They went to the same classes as their host,” Forshee said, “unless there 

was a test. In that case we gave them the chance to see something they 

were interested in, whether it was an art class, culinary class or yearbook.” 

Forshee said they also visited a ranch, so the students could see horses. “I 

decided not to chance putting one of the kids on a horse,” he said. 

One of the big interests of the students was the transportation system. 

Students at their school use private transportation. Parents drop off the 

student or the student has a scooter. Being driven to school by a classmate 

or using a school bus was totally foreign to the group. “The only school 

bus they’d ever seen was in a movie,” Forshee said. He said they group was 

quite excited to witness dismissal from the bus porch.

Forshee said he found discussing education philosophy with his Taiwan 

counterparts to be quite interesting. “Getting into a top high school in 

Taiwan is like getting into a top college for U.S. kids,” he said. “A family’s 

whole future can be decided just by getting into the ‘right school.’ It is very 

different from what we are used to in the United States. 

FOSTER PHOTOGS EARN GOLD KEYS 

Thirteen Foster High School students earned awards in the Scholastic

photographers and writers won two Gold Key Awards, four Silver Key

Fairless both received Gold Keys in photography.

Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Dept. has a computer-generated program called 

“Are You OK?” (RUOK). It is a computer-generated call intended for senior 

citizens (over 55) and disabled persons who live alone and could benefit from 

a daily check. A computer will generate a call each morning, at about the same 

time and the participant chooses a time frame. A voice will ask, “Are you OK?” 

After this, all they have to do is hang up the phone. If the participant goes out 

of town or leaves the residence for any time, you just temporarily un-subscribe 

and re-subscribe when you return. If the call goes unanswered, the computer 

will call back 3 times at 15-minute intervals. If there is still no answer, the 

Sheriff will dispatch a deputy or the local police. They will have with them 

a print out of information on the person that is not responding to the calls. 

This program was established by FBC Sheriff Milton Wright, Commissioner’s 

Court and Ken Whitt (FBC Sheriff’s Citizens Academy Alumni Assoc.) in 1998. 

Many police chiefs in the county are also participating in the program and will 

proceed with the welfare check for citizens of their community. To request 

more information or to enroll in this free and very beneficial program, please 

call the Sheriff’s Dept. at 281-341-4704.

April Gardening Tips 

Mulch - If possible, buy Bagged Mulch. Bagging helps eliminate a great many 

pests that die from various causes while in the bag. When you buy ‘loose’ 

mulch that is trucked to your home, you are also buying ants, roaches, 

termites, etc… Spend a little more on bagged material and save lots of future 

pest problems. Keep your mulch at least 4” - 6” below the top of your homes 

exposed foundation edge/side. This will aid in minimizing pests in your home 

and allow for quick and accurate termite inspections. 

Shrubs, Flowers and groundcovers - Trim all shrubs/plants at least 12” - 18” 

back from your home. Do your best to create a plant free zone that is 18” - 24” 

wide around your home. The exception is your lawn - it can grow up next to 

the slab as long as you keep it 4” - 6” below the top of the slab. The most 

conducive to termite infestation are groundcover plantings, growing high 

against your homes exterior or (especially) ivy that grows on your walls. 

Trees - Spray your trees at least twice annually. The spring spray eliminates 

overwintering pests and fungi while preparing trees to resist the pest 

onslaught of summer with residual pesticides. The fall spray also kills pests 

from the summer, prevents most fungi from occurring over the winter and 

puts your valuable asset off to a healthy winter’s dormancy. 

Lawn - Spring is the perfect time to do a fungicide treatment to stop brown 

patch in its tracks along with other fungi. If your lawn is thin and weak in 

some areas, here are some important fundamentals: a) lawn aeration b) 

fertilization c) weed control. 

Most important is proper watering: 

• Water once per week (unless you get a 1/2” rain or more - then do not water.) 

• Water heavily (1” - 2”) for total lawn coverage. 

• In severe drought, water every 5 th day. 

• Water from 5 AM to 7 AM in the morning - NOT AT NIGHT. 

• A heavy deep weekly watering makes the turf grow deeper, stronger and 

more drought resistant roots. 

• Less watering also saves you money!!

SIRE, HOUSTON’S THERAPEUTIC EQUESTRIAN CENTERS 

Nothing else can compare with therapy on horseback. Equine-assisted activities improve physical 

balance and coordination, mental acuity, emotional stability and social interactions. At SIRE, 

we see miracles on horseback happen every day. The work of our dedicated volunteers helps 

guarantee that children and adults with disabilities in the Greater Houston Area will have the 

programs they need to live longer, healthier, more productive lives. 

In addition to their weekly work in the arena, many of our volunteers donate their time and talents 

at fund-raising events such as our annual Ride-A-Thon and the yearly Trailblazers Luncheon. 

Volunteers are on hand during the NARHA on-site certification and annual SIRE Show-Off and 

volunteers are vital to our Clients’ successes at the Top Hands Horse Show, during the Houston 

Rodeo and competition at the regional and state Special Olympics. Therapeutic horseback riding 

creates a bond of success between the rider and their horse. Volunteers are their own personal 

cheering section and the instructor is their mentor and coach. Clients become more empowered 

and better equipped to fully live their lives, each day. 

To volunteer, please call one of our arenas and ask to speak with a volunteer coordinator.
