Tax Preparation FAQs
What should I bring to my tax appointment?
Last year's return, your W-2s and 1099s, Form 1098 for mortgage interest, records of charitable gifts, and income and expense records for any business or rental property. We'll send a full checklist when you book.
When are tax returns due?
Individual and C corporation returns are due April 15 for calendar-year filers. S corporation and partnership returns are due March 15, and calendar-year nonprofit returns are due May 15. When a deadline falls on a weekend or holiday, it moves to the next business day. See the upcoming tax deadlines on our homepage.
Can you file an extension for me?
Yes. Keep in mind that an extension gives you more time to file, not more time to pay. We'll estimate what you owe so it can be paid by the original deadline and you avoid penalties and interest.
I haven't filed in a few years. Can you help?
Yes. We prepare past-due returns, sort out the missing paperwork with you, and get you current before the next deadline.
Does Florida have a state income tax?
Florida doesn't tax individual income, so most Florida residents file a federal return only. Florida does have a corporate income tax that applies to most C corporations.
Do I need to come into the office?
No. Tax preparation can be handled entirely by phone, video, email and secure document upload. If you'd rather meet in person, our office is in Apopka.
How much does tax preparation cost?
It depends on the type of return and how complex it is. After a short consultation we quote the work up front, so there are no surprises.
