What should you expect from your tax planner and tax preparer?

  • What experience do you have in working with businesses or individuals with similar tax needs and circumstances as mine?
  • How do you stay updated with changes in tax laws and regulations, and how do you ensure my tax strategy is compliant and optimized?
  • How do you assist clients in the event of an audit or tax dispute with the IRS or state tax authorities?
  • What is your process for communication and coordination with the CPA or tax advisor to ensure seamless tax planning and preparation for my business or personal finances?
  • What client references and tax planning success stories can you share?

Sometimes we get work from other tax preparers and there are things that just don’t smell right. Sometimes they don’t have all the right information, sometimes they don’t know about certain tax breaks, and sometimes they just plain mess up.

We obtained a new client and started looking through one such return. It was a successful restaurant business and they had been with their CPA for over 20 years. CPA’s are moving on, retiring, passing away, and we have heard all about it.

Looking over the information we saw two big things. The first was that something in one of the forms was placed in the wrong box. It happens sometimes, but this mistake cost the client $160,000! We were able to fix that one but there was also something a bit wonky about some information on the business side. There are certain credits that exist in the tax code, but it takes a lot of work to get non-accounting information to figure out if it will work. We saw that geography, employee demographics, and amounts were trigger points for this credit. This credit was worth another $50,000.

The client was ecstatic that we took the time to make sure there wasn’t something sneaky hiding in the older returns. It may seem cheesy, but in our world, we are over the moon to be able to find those diamonds in the rough!
