Five tax heroes found, 15 more to go
July 15, 2008 – 1:59 pmTax preparers nationwide have accepted the Tax Hero Challenge and we found the first five tax heroes. Jack of Pennsylvania, John of Wisconsin, Harvey of Texas, Peter of Pennsylvania, and Irwin of Illinois each received an iPod® touch for calculating the biggest refund legally possible during the first round. Congratulations to our winners and thanks to all of the participants. Now, gear up for round two!
Round two began on July 1st and will run through August. You all start afresh with an equal opportunity to prove you are America’s #1 tax preparer.
