Other Professional Tax Preparers
We do not work with other professional tax preparers. We do not help them, train them or coach them, or give you advice on how to do that. That would put us in an the awkward position of interfering with another professional. So we don't do it.

Our policy is to raise fees annually by cost of living increases. Fees are subject to adjustment without notice.
