Income Tax Preparation & Forms

Income Tax Preparation Services

With over 30 years of experience, we can prepare your personal or business federal and state income tax returns.  We specialize in homeowners' tax preparation, and can do all U.S. state returns and prior year returns. We can also respond to IRS letters, as well as State Tax Department correspondence.

Did you know that the IRS estimates the average person will spend 26 hours to prepare their income tax return?  Let us save you time and money by preparing it for you.  Studies have shown that the IRS is less likely to audit a tax return that has been signed by a CPA. We encourage all our clients to take advantage of our FREE Electronic Filing service. According to the IRS Newswire of January 14, 2009 "Additional checks are done during the e-file transmission process.  That's why the error rate is so low for e-filed returns. In fact, the error rate is significantly reduced from 20 percent with paper returns to about 1 percent with e-filed returns. "

As you've found us on the Internet, you're eligible for a 30% discount on your individual income tax preparation.  Our fee for individual income tax preparation is by the number of tax forms that you need, so the cost will vary depending on your situation. 

A typical individual Federal return with itemized deductions, including the 30% discount, would be about $560.  That also includes one state return, free electronic filing for federal and state, and the comfort of having a professional CPA prepare and sign your tax returns.  Additional tax forms or excessive research could increase that price.

Corporate, estate, partnership and other types of tax return fees are calculated based on the amount of time it takes to prepare the return.  

Conveniently located in Northern Virginia, we have evening and weekend appointments available. Call us today to schedule an appointment or visit our Directions and Appointments page.
