All taxpayers and potential clients have the right to know how much they will be paying us before they agree to pay it. For this reason, virtually all fees are agreed upon, in advance. There are some occasions, due to the complex nature of the job or other factors beyond our control, where it is impossible to set a fee in advance. In these cases, an hourly rate will be set in advance and we will provide our best estimate of the total cost, before we start. If we prepared your tax returns last year and there are no major changes, your fee will be the same.
Fees are due at or prior to completion of the work.
We are glad to make house calls. We don't charge for visits to the elderly or infirmed if they live within walking distance of our NY office. We also provide representation before NY State, NY City , and most other tax jurisdictions. We will pay any penalty caused by our lateness with regard to any tax deadline. We will also pay any penalty caused by our error in the preparation of your tax returns.
