Like it or not, today's tax laws are very complicated that even filing a relatively simple return can be confusing and troublesome.
For example:

Each and every day, the IRS automated tax assessment center prepares thousands of letters for taxpayers and business owners. Everything from misfiled payroll returns to conflicting W-2 forms is flagged, a letter requesting information or assessing penalties and interest is sent for immediate response. As the IRS and State Tax Authorities are updating their computers, assessment tools, and cross-checking software, more and more of these letters are sent out. Eventually, they will catch up to your situation. And it may not be too long before you receive one of these letters.
This is serious, whether you are an individual or business owner, and should not be taken lightly. Failing to file your tax returns is considered a criminal offense. If you do not file as required by law, you can be prosecuted and punished with potential prison time. Why risk it? Get started now and call us to assist with filing those past-due returns!
Let us give you the peace of mind you deserve by helping you get in compliance with the law. By voluntarily filing your delinquent returns, you may be able to avoid further problems other than having to pay the interest and penalties. But if you wait for the IRS to catch up with you, they may file your returns on your behalf – in the government's best interest, usually with little or none of the deductions you may entitle to.
Please make sure you are in compliance. That's the first step before we can help you with the back taxes owed.

Well, you just got the letter – you’re being audited! Tax audits take a significant amount of time away from your business and family, often requiring you to gather stacks of records to substantiate each and every item reported on the tax return.
The IRS or State Taxing Authority will leave no stone unturned in finding ways to increase your liability or at least to prove what you listed on your returns. If you don't comply with the Auditors' request, they will recalculate your tax, pressuring you to sign their tax order, and you will find yourself with a large tax amount due, with penalties and interest that may double what you should have owed.
If you're return is simple, you may decide to handle a tax audit yourself. Hopefully that will be a good decision on your part. Tax auditors historically are trained very well in extracting information from you far beyond what you have to provide. Why not have a tax audit professional by your side, so you don't have to worry about fearing them or not knowing your tax rights?
If you've received an audit notice from the IRS, State Revenue Department, or your State Unemployment Agency, don't hesitate to call right away. Let us help you decide on your next course of action. That step may lead to a large tax savings or unintended errors and higher liabilities. Remember, the initial consultation is Free!
