Congratulations to NY State Society of Enrolled Agents for another successful annual convention. It’s always great to share the stage with distinguished tax educators and connect with America’s and New York’s Tax Experts.
Tax Pro PSA: Trading crypto futures makes your bill go up. Sending them to me in a .numbers file on 9/24 gets you fired.

Still using Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, or Hotmail for your tax practice?
There’s a good case for moving to an email address at your firm’s own domain.
For roughly $100/year, it can improve your professional presence, give the firm administrative control, and provide better security options. It’s a small upgrade with benefits well beyond appearances. #TaxTwitter #EA #CPA #Cybersecurity open.substack.com/pub/joshan…

Why would you ever scan any QR code?
🚨CRYPTO INVESTORS: DO NOT SCAN THIS QR CODE
A fake IRS notice is being mailed to crypto holders directing them to a bogus “Digital Asset Compliance Portal.”
It looks very convincing. It isn’t real.
Please spread the word.

Crypto has reached the Tax Court again, and this time the case goes beyond procedural issues to examine core tax principles.
In Paschall v. Commissioner, the Tax Court considers the taxation of staking income, making it only the third Tax Court case to mention cryptocurrency and the first to address underlying tax treatment. In this article, Matt Metras @EmDeeEm breaks down what is at stake and the lessons tax professionals should take away.

The question isn't whether we're tempted by sycophancy. It's whether we recognize the temptation before it becomes our character. On courage, independence, and the cost of telling the truth when agreement is easier. 👇️ #TaxTwitter #EA #CPA #AI #Cybersecurity

We've spent years being the people at the table who say "well, actually…" about a variety of topics. So we made it a podcast. Well, Actually… launches next month — taxes (obviously), books, AI, and tech reviews of the software and gear we actually use. The apps, tools, and hardware that either earned a spot in our workflow or got returned. And whatever else is on our minds. The premise is simple: we politely correct the record, and we bring receipts. At least one well-sourced "actually" per episode. It's for people who like being right, but care more that the information is right. And who think "I don't know" is a perfectly good sentence — as long as the next one is "let's find out." @ShannonHallEA and I, starting August 2026.

IRS OPR issued informal guidance on the Circular 230 and §7216 implications of AI for tax practitioners. Nothing is shocking -- but we now know this is on OPR's radar. A practitioner cannot outsource their professional judgment to an AI tool, must have competence before using AI in their practice, and must zealously safeguard client data.
AI is sexy, and can be immensely powerful -- but there are limits on what it can and should do. Read more here: tomtalkstaxes.com/p/opr-ai-2…

Yesterday, Josh Youngblood, EA, CRETS, and I launched AskTomG.ai.
AskTomG.AI is the only AI tax research tool built with Circular 230 compliance at its core. It walks you through the tax research process used and taught by Tom Gorczynski, surfaces the most relevant authority, and empowers the practitioner to make the call on the position.
It won't render opinions or draw conclusions for you — that’s your role as the trusted expert.
We've already got great feedback from the initial signups. If you subscribe by June 21, you can lock in a founding member monthly or annual rate for two years (you also get two free months with the annual subscription).
If you want to see a video recording of our presentation from Monday, it will be available shortly on AskTomG.AI.

AI is everywhere. But is it really improving how we do tax research in the industry? Is an unverified quick answer from a brief prompt enough? To me, the answer is no — we aren't doing our best for our clients or meeting our ethical obligations.
Tax research in the AI era should not replace the tax professional -- it should provide quick access to information and, if we do it right, make us better practitioners and advisors.
Josh Youngblood, EA, CRETS, and I have been working on something for months: a Circular 230-compliant tax research tool that integrates the tax research process I teach and use into its core. Join us on June 15 to learn all about it; register here: tinyurl.com/rxmjzpc3

And just in case you thought @EmDeeEm was only teaching Tequila at the #NYSSEA October conference in Saratoga Springs…Fear not! We’ve got some #tax content, too. youtu.be/4iV2s_qs_2Q?is=0qjD…

Most AI tax tools are built to think for you. Josh Youngblood and I built the opposite.
On June 15th, we're launching a new tool that changes how you do tax research. Its foundation is the research process I've taught and used for years — with Circular 230 compliance baked into its core, not an afterthought.
If you're serious about using AI as a time-saving tool and not a substitute for your expertise, this is for you. Join us on June 15th: tinyurl.com/rxmjzpc3
