FAQ
Straight answers
What kinds of tax returns do you prepare?
Most individual, small business, trust, and estate returns. We do not prepare nonprofit (Form 990), foreign partnership/corporation returns, highly complex foreign income cases, or business personal property tax renditions. If something is outside our expertise, we say so up front.
Where are you located — and do you work outside DFW?
Our office is in North Richland Hills, TX. We also serve clients nationwide through a secure portal and virtual meetings. In-person meetings are available for local clients who prefer them.
Are you CPAs?
No. We are Enrolled Agents (EAs) — federally licensed tax professionals authorized by the U.S. Department of the Treasury to represent taxpayers before the IRS. For most individuals and small businesses, an EA delivers the tax expertise you need.
Do you guarantee a refund amount?
No. We guarantee that your return will be accurate and compliant based on the information you provide. Whether you receive a refund or have a balance due depends on your situation.
How do I know if I need tax planning?
If you had a large balance due at filing, planning can help. Business owners, investors, and high earners without withholding often benefit most from quarterly estimates and proactive strategy.
How do I share documents?
Through a secure online client portal. Local clients can also drop documents at the office.
