<div dir="auto">There is a lot of conversation about this issue. The most recent edict produced by the IRS is that you need to have received an actual assessment of your 2018 taxes in order for it to be paid in 2017 for 2018 otherwise it might not count. Lots of confusion.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Dec 28, 2017 10:27 AM, "Paul Napolitano" <<a href="mailto:paul@twosonsenv.com">paul@twosonsenv.com</a>> wrote:<br type="attribution"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">VERY helpful Jack!
