I sent a client an email today (responding to her query) and she wrote back, “What happened to the Circular 230 Notice?” What happened is that last week the IRS added the new revisions to Circular 230 on their webpage dealing with Circular 230. Thus, I (and every other tax professional) can remove the Circular 230 verbiage from the bottom of their emails.
Think of all the electrons we’re saving!
On a serious note, the Circular 230 Notice had to appear on every email. It was basically ignored by everyone who saw it and did not serve much (if any) purpose. The elimination of it is, overall, a good thing.
