Tax Preparation

Preparing your own income tax return can be a task that leaves you with more questions than answers. According to a study released by the US Government's General Accounting Office last year, most taxpayers (77% of 71 million taxpayers) believe they benefited from using a professional tax preparer.

Whether we like it or not, today's tax laws are so complicated that filing a relatively simple return can be confusing. It is just too easy to overlook deductions and credits to which you are entitled. Even if you use a computer software program there's no substitute for the assistance of an experienced tax professional.

Here's how we can help...

• All of our tax preparers have earned the designation of Enrolled Agent by the Internal Revenue Service. 

  An Enrolled Agent (EA) is a federally-authorized tax practitioner who has technical expertise in the field of taxation and who is empowered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury to represent taxpayers before all administrative levels of the Internal Revenue Service for audits, collections,and appeals.    As Enrolled Agents, we are required to complete continuing education courses each year to stay on top of the current tax laws.                                       

• Your return will be triple checked to assure it is accurate and complete before filing.  Our system of processing is designed to be sure that your return is error free.

• It is our goal to be sure that you take every deduction that you are legally entitled to.  Our triple check system also gives an analytic review of your return to see if there are any deductions that you might be legally entitled to that you are missing.
