How it works
We look at your situation before we start, not after

What we prepare and what it costs
Filing a 1040 sounds straightforward until you realize there are a dozen ways to do it wrong. We look at your full picture, income sources, deductions, life changes from the past year and make sure you’re filing the right way at the right price.
Simple individual return — $150
Your income is mostly W-2 wages, you take the standard deduction, and you may have Social Security income. No investments, no business income.
More complex return — $250
Itemized deductions Investment income (interest and dividends) IRA and pension withdrawals Social Security and pension income Additional schedules
What’s included when we prepare your return
We handle your return from the first document to the final e-file. That means reviewing everything you send us, checking for deductions you qualify for, completing the right forms, and filing once you approve.
You get a copy of your completed return for your records. If anything looks unclear, we walk you through it before anything gets submitted.
We also flag anything that could affect next year’s return, like changes in income or estimated tax payments you might need to start.

Personal tax filing in Florida: common questions
Not always, but W-2 filers miss things more often than you’d think. Eligibility for certain credits, correct filing status, deductions that don’t show up in the software. For $150 it’s worth a second set of eyes. We’ll tell you honestly if your situation is simple enough to file yourself.
Bring it in. We review prior returns and file amended returns when something was missed or reported incorrectly. It happens more than people expect — wrong filing status, missing deductions, incomplete income reporting. In some cases an amended return means a bigger refund or a lower tax bill.
Tax software works with what you put in. If you don’t know a deduction exists, you won’t enter it. If your filing status is unclear, the software won’t catch it. A preparer looks at your full picture, asks follow-up questions, and applies IRS rules based on your actual situation.
Not necessarily. If it’s convenient for you, you can come in person and bring your documents, or upload them securely through our client portal.
Depends on your situation. Usually W-2s, 1099s, last year’s return, and any statements for retirement or investment accounts. We’ll send you a checklist when you book.
Once we have all your documents same day preparation, same day review, e-file immediately after you approve.
Call us. As an Enrolled Agent, we read the notice, explain what it means, and respond to the IRS on your behalf. You don’t have to deal with it alone.
