Valuable Information for Tax Payers & Business Owners
Enrolled Agents (EA) are America's Tax Experts.
EAs are federally-licensed tax practitioners who specialize in taxation and have unlimited rights to represent taxpayers before the IRS.
Good record-keeping, aka book-keeping, is your best solution for tax savings, cash flow management, profitability, and overall small-business success!
Your tax return is an important snapshot of your Personal Financial Plan - much more than "Where's My Refund?"
Having receipts is NOT enough to satisfy an IRS Audit or settle your tax case. Always speak with a Tax Pro before taking tax advice from a salesperson.
