Tax Planning & Strategy · South Ogden

Plan in July. Smile in April.

Year-round tax strategy for families and business owners. The moves you make during the year decide what you owe next spring.

  • Year-round, not just tax season
  • Withholding and estimated payment checkups
  • Entity and S-Corp election strategy
  • Retirement and charitable giving moves
What's included

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Withholding checkups

New job, new baby, new marriage? Your W-4 should change too, before it costs you.

Estimated tax payments

For the self-employed: what to pay and when, so April brings no surprise bill.

Business structure strategy

Sole prop, LLC or S-Corp election: what fits your income and your plans.

Retirement moves

Contributions, rollovers and when an early IRA withdrawal can avoid the penalty.

Charitable giving

Bunching gifts, donor-advised funds and making your generosity count on your return.

Next year's game plan

Once your return is filed, we map what to change so next year goes better.

A good fit if

How it works

Four steps. Zero guesswork.

Most clients spend more time finding their W-2 than working with us. Here's how it goes.

1

Book a time

Pick a service and a time online, day or night. Evenings and Saturdays fill fastest in tax season.

2

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.

Katie & Grayce, on this.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

When should I start tax planning?
Now. Most strategies only work if they happen before December 31, so the best time is mid-year.
Is tax planning only for wealthy people?
No. Pack Tax was built on the idea that good tax help shouldn't be reserved for the ultra-wealthy. A withholding fix alone can save a family a painful April.
Should my LLC elect S-Corp status?
Sometimes. It depends on your profit, a reasonable salary for you and the added payroll costs. We'll run the numbers with you in a planning session.
Can you help with quarterly estimated payments?
Yes. We'll help you figure out what to pay and when, and adjust as the year goes.
Can I give to charity or pay tithing in a more tax-smart way?
Often. Bunching gifts into one year or using a donor-advised fund can help, depending on your situation. Watch Katie and Grayce explain it below, then ask us about yours.
While we have time, let us do good.
