Less than a month away and there are a lot of questions out there when it comes to avoiding scams with your taxes. Steve steve is joining us live in dallas this morning with answers to many of those questions. Steve, im assuming you had yours done on day one. Reporter come on. Come on. Im like foaming at the mouth waiting for the w2 in the mail. Are you kidding me . Day one. Day one. Look, heres why folks. The best defense against tax scams is doing it as early as possible. Once your taxes are filed, it eliminates the opportunity for somebody else to file them fraudulently on your behalf. Time as short as possible, so if i get them done february 1st, guess what, now nobody can try and file them for me. You wait until, you know, now, ahem, and theyve had all of this time. All right. First, look, i dont think i can afford a c. P. A. I need more help that the d. I. Y. , kit could give me. The key in that sentence is professional. All you need is a couple of chairs and a folding table, you got yourself a tax office. There is very little oversight here. And a 74,000 page tax code. So, look, i really would encourage anybody to go and actually price out what a c. P. A. , might cost you. Often times it is much les444444444444 expensive than lot of these messes people bring to me come april, may, june. Oh, my gosh, i have spent 1,000 on my tax preparer because i got ripped off. A couple hundred bucks is a certified c. P. A. Look, at the end of the day, the thing that i like about that, is couple of months, even next year, my c. P. A. , is still going to be in the same office. So if i have any tax questions, if i get audited in some way, i can still visit the same person, who prepared my taxes, plus because we have a great relationship over the years, he knows what kind of questions to ask me about my personal life, any changes there may have been, which might benefit me taxwise. Amy okay. So, steve, next question. Is it okay to allow a company to take possession of your refund and then send you the balance once they take your fee out . Are you being too trusting to do that . Reporter you know, based on the number of people who do that, and then write to me, you would think its aok. But ill tell you what, those letters are never because theyre happy with their decision. Do not ever let anybody direct deposit your money into anything other than your account. Look, i know that it sounds like a great proposition. Its no money out of pocket, you think youre going to save all of this cash. But nine times out of ten, its from the viewers, that all of a sudden their fee triples and they sent you what was left over. They never sent you a check. They lied aboutest lied about getting your check. You go ahead and distribute it out the way you should. Real quick before we go. I want to talk about extensions. A lot of folks ask how easy to get an extension. All you have to do is fill out the form, but beware. This is not an extension to pay, only an extension to file. So if youre looking to do this because you think you want an extension to pay the tax bill, youre sadly mistaken. Heres the problem. A lot of folks think its an extext to pay, they hit hit with fees and all kinds of penalties. You will still have to estimate what the tax burden, write the check to uncle sam by april 15th. At that point, you might as well get it done. You can go to itunes for my pod cast. Amy good stuff. We appreciate you. Well talk to you later. All right. Lets check in with brooks and see how things are looking weatherwise. Brooks good morning, amy. Good morning, everybody. Its going to be a sunny day today. Temperatures back close to normal. The last couple of days its been chilly. The high temperatures today near 80. Temperatures in the 50s through much of Central Florida. A little cooler north and west. But by the 9 00 hour, i think everybody will be about 5, 10 degrees warmer than where we are right now. Over the next 36 hours, the humidity really begins to winds. And then this weekend it wont be a washout. But we have enhanced clouds and rain as we go through the weekend, maybe some thunderstorms with warm, humid conditions returning. El nino remaining strong and thats going to help accentuate the rainfall this weekend. Outside right now, heres our view from orlando. Cant wait until the big tournament this summer. That should be impressive, with brazil coming into town. Temperatures right now 57 in brevard county. 51 at the world center of speed. North and west temperatures in the 40s. But everybody warmer than this time yesterday. Around the southeast theres no cold air. Look at that. Its warmer right now in Oklahoma City and omaha than it is in orlando. That warmth will continue to move east, it will continue to see our atmosphere moisten up. Start to feel really good. And then were going to see some rain coming into play. So here we go. Today we stay dry. Showers tomorrow. But by friday this little frontal boundary very weak. Its going to wash out across Central Florida. Friday, saturday, sunday it will serve as the focus mechanism for rain. Here we go. Accuweather sevenday forecast. 81 degrees on wednesday. As we go through thursday, friday, saturday, sunday high upper 80s. But right now solid chance of rain friday, saturday, and sunday. Not a washout. Just quite unsettled. Lets get a check on the morning drive. Hey, kristin. Reporter hello, good morning. We are taking you out right now to i4 eastbound, right at 1792. Cars are not moving. This has been going on for quite a while. Ill step out of the way so you can see here. It appears a crash on the other side of the trees is blocking that exit ramp to get on to 1792. Again this is i4 eastbound and some troubles there. We do have an alternate route for you. Well get to that in just a second. So taking a look here, if i were you, i would take i4 eastbound to state road 46 as an alternate. Again to avoid that backup there on 1792. Taking you down to kissimmee. Still seeing some major delays on the florida turnpike. This is right after osceola parkway. Florida 91, florida turnpike northbound. So you see those red lines there in those northbound lanes. Times. I4 eastbound, john young parkway to downtown, three minutes. And if youre using the 408 this morning, ross road to downtown, will take you 11 minutes. Time now for the pump patrol. Regular gas is just 1. 89 at the citgo at south avenue in orlando. And remember you can always find these gas saving tips on our website, fox35orlando. Com. Click on traffic and then pump patrol.
