I never depreciated my investment property, which I rented out for 10 years. The property consists of two residential houses and an antique store. I bought it for $210,000 and have had a mortgage for the full 10 years. Its current value is approximately $400,000. What is the best course of action now?

I received an examination notice from the IRS regarding my car and truck mileage deduction for my 2019 tax return. The vehicle in question is used exclusively for business, with an odometer reading of 160,000 miles on January 1st, 2019, and 177,500 miles on December 31st, 2019. I deducted 17,500 miles for the year, which is what the IRS agent is questioning. What should I do to respond to this notice by tomorrow?

I am unclear on S-Corps. Everywhere I read says shareholder distribution is not taxed. However, my annual tax pro tells me you still have to pay taxes on the distribution. So her recommended quarterly tax PLUS the tax I pay through payroll (W2) of my self, ends up no different than if I just remained Self Employed, not converting to an S-Corp. Is my tax pro incorrect?
