Gather your documents

Use the checklist to pull everything together, then upload it to your secure client portal or bring it in.

3

Sit down with Katie or Grayce

We go through your situation, ask the questions software doesn't, and explain what we find in plain English.

4

Filed, and still here

Your return gets filed and you get a plan for next year. Questions in July? We're open in July.

Watch

Katie & Grayce, on this.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What's the difference between an LLC and an S-Corp?
An LLC is a legal entity created under state law. It separates your business from you personally. An S-Corp is a tax election an LLC or corporation can make with the IRS. Once profits are high enough to justify a reasonable salary, it can lower self-employment taxes.
When should I talk to you about starting a business?
Before you launch, ideally. Decisions made in the first year (structure, bookkeeping, estimated payments) shape every tax season after.
Do I need an attorney too?
For legal questions, such as an operating agreement with partners, a business attorney is worth it. We focus on the tax side and setup guidance, and we're happy to work alongside your attorney.
Can you help if I already formed my LLC?
Yes. We'll review how it's set up, whether an S-Corp election makes sense, and get your books and tax plan in place.
Can I write off my home office?
If you use part of your home regularly and exclusively for business, often yes. Watch Grayce explain it below, then we'll figure out which method works best for you.
While we have time, let us do good.
