Optional Upgrade

Prefer Not to Fill Out the Organizer Yourself?

Our White Glove Intake is for clients who want a more hands-off experience. Instead of completing your own tax organizer, a member of our team calls you and walks through the intake process together — so your file starts complete and accurate from day one. Available for individual tax clients. Ask about this option when scheduling.

$50 per return

Support Beyond Filing

Tax preparation with our firm does not end when a return is filed.

Returns prepared by our firm include post-filing client support designed to assist if tax notices are received, identity-related issues occur, or qualifying preparation errors need to be addressed. We also assist clients with tax compliance reviews and IRS transcript analysis when prior filings or records need clarification — reflecting our commitment to year-round client care, not just seasonal filing.

Flexible Payment Options

Refund-Based Payment Available

For eligible individual tax clients, we offer refund-based payment options through Republic Bank. This allows qualified clients to pay their tax preparation fees from their refund rather than out of pocket at the time of filing. Availability and eligibility requirements apply.

Protection Plus® — Included With Every Return

Every tax return prepared by our firm includes Protection Plus® at no additional cost. This is not optional — every client we serve is covered, from the moment your return is filed through the full year that follows.

Audit & Notice Defense

Up to $1,000,000 in professional representation if your return is selected for review, inquiry, or IRS examination. You are not navigating that process alone.

Identity Theft Protection

Dedicated support if identity theft affects your tax account, including professional assistance navigating the IRS resolution process on your behalf.

Preparer Error Guarantee

If a qualifying preparation error results in a penalty or interest charge, we will address it — up to $2,500 — at no cost to you. We stand behind our work.

New This Tax Season

IRS Transcript Monitoring — Now Included

Starting this tax season, Protection Plus® now includes proactive IRS transcript monitoring for every client. Our firm watches your IRS account on an ongoing basis throughout the year — so discrepancies, open actions, and filing issues are identified before anything shows up in your mailbox.

Weekly automated transcript pulls — current year plus three prior years
Proactive identification of IRS actions and discrepancies before mail delivery
Direct notification to our firm when attention is required, with prompt communication to you
Post-filing review comparing your return against IRS records across all transcript types
Document checklist from your transcript ahead of next year's filing
Four-year income, withholding, and refund history drawn directly from IRS data

Transparent Fees

We believe you should have a clear sense of what professional tax preparation costs before you commit to a conversation. Our fees reflect the expertise involved — not volume pricing.

Individual Returns Starting At

$350

Federal return + one state filing


Your final fee depends on the complexity of your return — the forms and schedules required, your filing situation, and what is needed to prepare an accurate, complete filing. Not sure where your situation falls? Book a complimentary 15-minute call first. We will give you a clear answer before any work begins.

Why Work With a CPA and Enrolled Agent Firm

Our firm prepares returns that many seasonal or volume-based preparers cannot handle — and we are credentialed to represent you before the IRS when questions arise after filing.

A Certified Public Accountant and IRS Enrolled Agent in the same firm means your return is prepared with rigorous professional standards and that you have licensed representation available if the IRS ever needs to be engaged on your behalf. Whether you are filing a straightforward individual return or managing multiple entities and complex reporting obligations, our goal is to give you clarity, confidence, and peace of mind every time.
