The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 is much more of a mess because it retroactively extended a bunch of tax credits that had expired at the end of 2016 to expire in December 2017. I have no idea if this affects forms or just instructions and I'm guessing the IRS is still trying to figure that out as well. <br><br>Here is a small list of some of the changes:<br><br>https://www.accountingtoday.com/opinion/tax-aspects-of-the-bipartisan-budget-act-of-2018<br><br>I know some people with solar projects that are waiting to redo their taxes because of it.

<br>
We got the notice yesterday. I called our Representative's office
and was told the tax law changes only affect the 2018 W-4 for
withholding. The staffer said the forms for filing 2017 taxes are
not affected. We had already been giving out forms for about a
month when we got the letter (Notice 1437) yesterday, and had no way
of contacting people who had already picked up forms. We're leaving
our forms out, but will be considering whether we continue to
distribute printed forms in future years. If any of this comes back
to haunt us, we'll definitely default to providing access to and
assistance with the IRS web site. <br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
Paul<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">With the new notice from the IRS that there
may be changes made to the federal forms because of the new
tax law passed on Feb 9, AND the fact that the IRS will NOT be
printing the forms to send to libraries, what are other
library systems doing? Are you pulling the forms with signage
and info, telling folks were to order when they are ready?
Or….? Thanks for thoughts.
