Tax Preparation Services

Accurate federal and state tax returns prepared by a CPA. We handle individuals, small businesses, and self-employed professionals with confidence and care.

What We Prepare

Our tax preparation services cover a wide range of situations:

  • Individual Returns (Form 1040) — W-2 income, investment income, rental property, capital gains
  • Business Returns — Schedule C (self-employed), Schedule F (farm), S-corporation, partnership returns
  • State Returns — Arkansas and multi-state tax filings
  • Amended Returns (Form 1040-X) — Corrections and optimization
  • Estimated Tax Payments — Quarterly payment planning for self-employed and business owners

Our Process

1. Consultation — We discuss your situation, income sources, and deductions.

2. Gathering Documents — We request W-2s, 1099s, receipts, and records you've prepared.

3. Preparation — We prepare your return with care, ensuring compliance and identifying tax-saving opportunities.

4. Review — Your return is reviewed by a CPA before filing.

5. Filing — We file electronically (e-file) with the IRS and state revenue departments.

Why Accuracy Matters

A mistake on your return can trigger an IRS notice, cost you in penalties, or mean leaving real money on the table. We avoid that by:

  • Staying on top of tax law changes that affect your specific situation
  • Looking for deductions you might not know you can claim
  • Filing correctly with the IRS and the Arkansas DFA
  • Keeping detailed records so you're covered if the IRS ever questions your return

Common Questions

When should I file my return?

The IRS typically accepts individual returns in late January. For the 2025 tax year (filed in 2026), most returns are due by April 15, 2026. Filing early can speed up your refund if you're owed money.

What records do I need?

Bring all W-2s, 1099s, receipts for business expenses, charitable contributions, medical expenses, and any other documentation related to your income or deductions.

How long does preparation take?

Most straightforward returns take 1-2 weeks. Complex situations (business income, investments) may take longer. We'll give you a timeline upfront.

What if I owe state income tax in multiple states?

We handle multi-state returns and can help with state apportionment and credit planning to minimize your overall state tax burden.
