Do you charge to prepare extensions?

Can I get a fee estimate?

The easiest way to determine an accurate estimate is to see a copy of a prior year return and discuss any changes or additional filing requirements. If we give a fee estimate and at some point there is more work involved, we would communicate with you. In some cases where there is less work involved, the fee would be less.

How can we save on our accounting fee?

For individual tax returns being organized and including all your documents and information makes the process more efficient. For business returns having an accurate and reliable bookkeeping system in place is a great starting point. We can help you achieve both of these goals with a tax organizer or mid year check up.
