Farmers Service, Inc. offers tax and business services for Farm Bureau members. Services are provided through two separate programs, the Income Tax Service and Farm Business Services.
INCOME TAX SERVICE
The Income Tax Service offers tax preparation services to the general Farm Bureau membership in participating Farm Bureau offices. The Service annually prepares more than 31,000 returns for membership, making it the largest Farm Bureau tax service in the nation. Being located in the County Farm Bureau office provides a convenient and friendly location.
Our tax practitioners are trained in all types of returns including farm, small business, individual, and employment tax. The Farm Bureau practitioner provides friendly personal service while working with members to ensure all allowable deductions are taken on their tax returns. All tax practitioners receive continuing tax education and professional training each year. In addition to advanced training, practitioners have year-round access to technical support and research through the Company's home office. Many practitioners have received their Enrolled Agent (EA) designation. An Enrolled Agent is a person who has been granted enrollment to practice before the Internal Revenue Service based on that person's special competence in tax matters demonstrated by written examination administered by the IRS.
E-Filing is available and is the recommended method of filing your tax return.
FARM BUSINESS SERVICES
Farm Business Services offers tax and business services to production agriculture and other businesses. The Service was established in 1967 with the purpose of providing a computerized record keeping system to farmers that would supply them with financial management information as well as tax planning strategies and tax preparation.
Business services include a variety of financial record keeping systems that provide useful management reports specifically designed for farming operations, including PC Mars Farm Accounting Software. The services also include tax and business planning, year-end tax management, IRS audit representation, and the preparation of all required income tax and employment tax returns.
Consultants located across the state provide experienced, professional, and personal services to over 800 accounts.
The Service strives to provide clients with the information necessary to make informed decisions in today's challenging business environment. The combination of customized financial records, and personal service through individuals who understand farm business, make this program a great asset for Farm Bureau members.
