Thanks to everyone who replied.
I pay him $250.00 to do my personal taxes and another $425
to do my corporate taxes.
I still have not called, I wanted to be prepared so I asked
my wife for the return receipt we received when she sent our
tax info to him many months ago. Well, she lost it. I then
checked my phone bills for the time I was calling him
(before the deadline) and they do show many calls to his
office. I will call tomorrow.
