Gov.
Mike
DeWine
has
ordered
all
non-essential
business
closed
effective
Tuesday
morning.
Because
accounting
firms
are
designated
as
essential
businesses,
NMS
continues
to
operate.
However,
we
are
extremely
concerned
for
the
health
of
our
staff,
clients,
vendors
and
communities. We
take
very
seriously
our
responsibility
and
role
in
reducing
the
spread
of
this
virus. Therefore,
effective
immediately:
-
There
will
be
no
person-to-person
client
meetings
at
any
NMS
office. We
gladly
will
“meet”
via
telephone
conference
or
video
conference,
and
can
communicate
via
email.
-
No
clients
will
be
permitted
to
enter
our
offices.
We
have
placed
locked
drop
boxes
at
the
entrance
or
in
the
vestibule
of
each
of
our
five
locations
so
that
you
may
continue
to
deliver
us
documents. We
can
also,
of
course,
still
receive
documents
electronically
(email
or
portal)
and
via
U.S.
mail
and
private
delivery
services
(UPS,
FedEx).
-
No
client
may
pick
up
documents,
tax
returns
or
other
work
at
our
offices.
Depending
on
what
is
more
convenient
for
you,
we
will
deliver
your
documents
instead
via
U.S.
mail,
private
delivery
service
or
electronically.
-
Most
of
our
staff
is
working
from
home. Please
be
patient
with
all
of
us
as
we
adjust
to
working
remotely.
NMS
recognizes
all
the
anxieties
caused
by
this
health
event:
over
health,
employment,
continued
business
and
economics.
Please
be
assured
that
we
will
prioritize
all
taxes
that
have
refunds
and
all
business
work
necessary
to
receive
aid
and
assistance
for
various
aid
programs.
We
very
much
care,
and
greatly
appreciate
your
continued
trust
in
our
firm. You
are
not
just
our
clients
-
you
are
our
family,
friends
and
neighbors. We
are
all
in
this
together,
and
we
will
all
get
through
this
together!
Wishing
you
and
your
families
the
best
of
health,
NMS
