Electronic Filing

Electronic filing is a method of transmitting your tax return information directly to the IRS. Electronic filing, or e-filing, increases the speed, security, and accuracy of filing your tax return. It also helps you get your refund faster. A federal refund filed electronically can be received in as little as 10 days (not including bank refund loan products, which can sometimes be received in minutes). Compare this to the average refund for a mailed return, which can take anywhere from six to eight weeks! We encourage all of our customers to file their returns electronically, though you are by no means obligated to do so.

Prior Year Tax Filings

If clients wish to bring themselves back into compliance with the IRS or other taxing agencies – by filing prior year tax returns – our firm can prepare delinquent filings with little or no records. Due to successful taxpayer challenge, resulting in the Cohan Rule, clients may estimate or reconstruct most business expenses. Reported income may be based on corroborated third party records or wage and tax withholding transcripts available from government information return programs. If prior year filings are less than three years old (four within the state of California), clients may be entitled to tax refunds.
