PA i> INDEALER - WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 29,197t Tax Help Year Around Are you one of those who enjoys doing things yourself, inplpding your own federal income tax return? If so, you m^y already know that whether you're a once-a-year F o r j n 1 0 4 0 A f i l e r , o r - a businessperson concerend about taxes all year 'round, you can get tax help from the In­ ternal Revenue service whenever you need it, and in ju$t. about any form or facet. For example, every tax package sent out at the end of the year comes with a set of instructions that can usually answer most of your tax questions. The wise taxpayer reads the instructions and keeps them handy all year long. Then there are 90 free IRS publications offering more comprehensive information on almost any tax subject you can think of: chiild and dependent care, benefits for Older Americans, business expenses, moving expenses, medical and d e n t a l d e d u c t i o n s , depreciation, sale of a home, jobs tax credit, etc. A coupon for ordering the publications is attached to every tax package. Of course, you can also order any of these by writing to your IRS office. Probably the most con­ venient form of taxpayer assistance is the IRS toll-free numbers. Most taxpayers in the U.S. can phone without long distance charges, even if the IRS office is hundreds of miles away, IRA tax assistors are available to answer most of your tax questions, and to send you tax forms and free IRS publications. A computer system called IDRS (that's short for Integrated Data Retrieval System) lets tax assistors answer within minutes questions about your current account with IRS or questions about why you got a certain bill or have not received your refund. Toll-free numbers are listed in the tax package or in your local phone directory. The IRS also has a TTY toll- free number for deal and rwrfl'n Automotive values.

VALUE FORUM •••••• realizing the worth of your possessions^ Tell And Learn Telling your kids the facts of life is one way of finding out what they are these days. Do You Value Yaur By, Dexter D. MacBride, ASA Executive Vice President A mericanSociety of Appraisers Your trees, shrubs and other landscape plants are a valuable investment -- an investment that grows. They contribute to the value of your property. As a home­ owner you may not realise that, if these items are damaged oradestroyed through a casualty event, you may be eligible to collect a casualty loss from an insurance com­ pany or deduct the loss from your federal income taxes. Generally, the ^damage must haye been caused by an identifiable event of sudden, unexpected or unusual nature. For the purposes of tax claims this can include mis­ haps that might come with wind or ice storms, lightning or floods, accidents such as a ear running into a tree, or a wide range of other occur­ rences. Most insurance policies, however, are somewhat more restrictive, and contain a Traas And Shrubs? provision that the company will be liable for loss to trees, shrubs, plants and lawris when loss is caused by fire, light­ ning, explosion, riot, civic ' commotion, malicious mis' chief, theft, aircraft, or vehicle not operated by an occupant of the premises. In other words, if your trees or landscape plants suffer a casualty, avenues that may be open to you for the re­ covery of their financial worth are -.Insurance Coverage, Income Tax Deduction, or Civil Damage Claim. What are the steps you should take for recovery if you sustaiifsuch a loss? 1. An important step is to take pictures of your land-' scape plantings, now, while they are healthy. 2. Then, if a casualty occurs, take others imme­ diately following the damage. These "before and after" photographs will be important evidence of the loss. 3. Consult your insurance policy to determine the amount and kind of coverage it provides. If you are still not sure whether or not your specific damage is included, contact your insurance agency or representative. 4. If the casualty is cover­ ed by insurance, have your agent arrange for an appraisal to be made by a competent tree or landscape professional 5. If the casualty loss is not covered by your home­ owners' insurance, or the amount of the loss is greater • than the maximum provided in your policy, U.S. treasury regulations permit a tax de­ duction for non-business casualty losses to landscape trees and shrubs. 6. When the casualty results from action by an Outside party, compensation is often available from the responsible individual, cor­ poration or governmental agency. Legal counsel may be needed, and a competent appraisal by a professional tree or landscape consultant will be critical to establish the full extent of the loss.
