First, we want to thank each of you for your dedication and commitment to make this a banner year for return production. SPEC’s goal is not only to reach 4 million returns for Filing Season 2018, but also serve more taxpayers and touch more lives by offering as many free tax preparation options as possible. We are confident and poised to accomplish great things this filing season with your assistance.
To help track our progress, we have developed weekly projections to determine where we should be in relation to our 4.0 goal. Each week this message will be updated with our progress and promote SPEC’s theme: SPEC 4.0, Watch us Grow!
For the week ending 3/4/2018, 356,317 returns were projected to be completed. We reached an actual count of 313,542 and are almost at the 1.5 million mark. Our cumulative return count is 1,468,961.
While the actual count is below the SPEC projection, there is still time to narrow the gap!
If you have any ideas on ways to help this initiative, we would love to hear from you! Some of you may consider extended hours or days. Every little bit helps!
Thanks for your engagement and all you are doing to provide free tax assistance to the taxpayers in your community!
