OSEA Central Oklahoma Chapter Event - Join us at Ted's Café Escondito Banquet Room, 11:30 a.m., Monday, May 11, 2026
Join us at 11:30 a.m. at Ted's Café Escondito Banquet Room at 68th and May in Oklahoma City for lunch and a Central Oklahoma Chapter IRS continuing education event. There is no cost for the CE, but there is a charge of $25 to cover the food cost. Ted's will have an enchilada bar set up for us.
John M. Perry III, EA, USTCP, will provide a one hour CE presentation starting at 12:00 noon on "Recovering COVID Era Penalties and Interest: The Kwong v. United States Case" for a 1 hour CE event.
A case recently decided in the United States Court of Claims, Kwong v. United States, has rocked the legal and tax world. This case holds that all tax filings, all tax payments, and all tax deadlines due on or after the start of the COVID emergency, January 20, 2020, were extended by law for almost 3½ years, until July 10, 2023. The ramifications of this recent ruling are staggering. It means, for instance, that income tax returns for the years 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 were all due on July 10, 2023, and not before. Prior to this, the IRS had enforced some short extensions, no more than a year, and millions upon millions of dollars in penalties and interest were assessed and paid during this trying period of our country's economy. Millions of taxpayers are now due refunds or abatements, some of them ours. But there is a hard deadline to act to claim these refunds -- July 10, 2026 -- and it is coming up fast.
This program will present the Kwong case and discuss the fallout from the Court's decision. We will discuss strategies for obtaining refunds and abatements for clients, including the process, forms to use, and deadlines. Most of us have clients who can benefit from this ruling and get money back from the IRS. This program, offered without charge by the Oklahoma Society of Enrolled Agents, is valuable to all tax preparers and representatives.
Join us live in Oklahoma City on Monday, May 11, 2026, or in Tulsa on Thursday, May 14, 2026.
