Common Questions

Answers to what our clients ask most.

At minimum, we need your prior year return, all W-2s, 1099s, and any relevant receipts or statements (mortgage interest, student loans, childcare, medical, etc.). After booking, we'll send you a personalized checklist through our secure portal so nothing gets missed.
Yes — we serve clients in all 50 states. Everything is done virtually through our secure client portal, video calls, and e-filing. Multi-state returns are our specialty.
We are a tax advisory firm specializing in tax preparation, planning, and compliance. Our network includes access to an IRS Enrolled Agent (EA) — a federally licensed tax practitioner authorized by the U.S. Treasury Department to represent taxpayers before the IRS. EAs are the only tax professionals who receive their credential directly from the IRS and are tested on all areas of taxation. For matters requiring CPA-specific services (such as audited financial statements), we can coordinate referrals.
No judgment — this is more common than you think. We specialize in helping clients get back into compliance. We'll file any delinquent returns, work with the IRS on your behalf to resolve penalties, and set you up for smooth filing going forward.
We take data security seriously. All documents are transmitted and stored using bank-level 256-bit encryption through our secure client portal (Canopy). We comply with IRS Publication 4557 (Safeguarding Taxpayer Data) and maintain a Written Information Security Plan (WISP) as required by the FTC Safeguards Rule. We never share your information with third parties without your explicit consent.
We use Intuit ProSeries Professional for tax preparation — the same professional-grade software trusted by thousands of tax firms — paired with Canopy for secure client management, document exchange, and workflow automation. This combination ensures accuracy, security, and a seamless experience for our clients.
Absolutely. We stay current with IRS guidance on digital assets including cryptocurrency, NFTs, DeFi income, and staking rewards. Whether you're reporting Form 8949 transactions or managing complex DeFi positions, we can handle it.
Both can represent taxpayers before the IRS, but they have different specializations. An Enrolled Agent (EA) is a federally licensed tax specialist credentialed directly by the IRS through a rigorous exam covering all areas of taxation. CPAs have broader accounting training including auditing and financial statements. For tax preparation, planning, and IRS representation, EAs are purpose-built for the job. Many complex tax matters are best handled by an EA.
