Our Goal Is To Make Tax Season As Easy And Stress Free As Possible
To Do That We Need A Little Help From You
Further down on the page we outlines our process and some key dates. Here is also a video that goes through all of that as well if you prefer to watch.
Also check out our Blog and Podcast episode on How Can I Make Tax Season Stress Free and What Are The 2020 Tax Due Dates? here.
The Tax Process
1) Intuit Link Sent (Personal)
For your personal return we will send you an invite to Intuit Link. This is where you will answer our questionnaire and upload personal tax documents.
This is an extremely important step in the process to ensure we have all of the information necessary to prepare and file your return.
In the video above there is a demo on how to use and fill out Intuit Link.
2) Questions Emailed Over To you
Any questions we have related to your personal or business tax return we will send over via email.
We ask that when you received that email you respond as soon as possible to ensure we can keep your return moving through the tax process.
The better you communicate here, the easier this process will be.
3) Business Tax Return Prep, Review, Filing
If you do your own bookkeeping, be sure to send over your completed financial statements (Income Statement or P&L and Balance Sheet) as soon as possible. If we do your bookkeeping we will get started right away and let you know if we have any lingering questions.
Once the return is prepped we will review it internally and then send a summary email over to you for review along with a signature form.
Once we receive the signed signature form we will file your tax return.
4) Personal Tax Return Prep, Review, Filing
Once we have your business tax return completed and you have filled out the required information on Intuit Link, we will get started on your personal tax return.
Once the return is prepped we will review it internally and then send a summary email over to you for review along with a signature form.
Once we receive the signed signature form we will file your tax return.
