"Best decision I could have made for my family's future. I can't express the relief TAC gave me after just one conversation. They released my wage levy immediately and got me approved for a program which allows me to pay back only a small portion of my tax debt. Amazing!"

Should I hire a CPA, Tax Lawyer, or Enrolled Agent?

It is important to know if the professional you will be hiring has the experience and qualifications to handle your case. Is he or she a Certified Public Accountant (CPA)? Tax lawyer? IRS Enrolled Agent? Here’s a breakdown: CPA: Certified by the state to act as a public accountant. To become a CPA there are significant educational requirements along with having to pass a series of exams. CPAs can provide a wide range of services including accounting, auditing, financial planning, technology consulting and business valuation. Tax Lawyer: A JD is a law degree. An LLM is a Masters in Law. (One could earn an LLM in taxation, but other areas of the law also offer an LLM.) Having a law degree or two doesn’t necessarily mean that an attorney prepares tax returns. Keep in mind, lawyers do not have to demonstrate competence in tax law to pass the bar exam in most states. IRS Enrolled Agent: An IRS Enrolled Agent is a tax professional who has earned the privilege of representing taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service by either passing a three-part comprehensive IRS test covering individual and business tax returns, or through experience as a former IRS employee. Enrolled Agent status is the highest credential the IRS awards. Individuals who obtain this elite status must adhere to ethical standards and complete 72 hours of continuing education courses every three years. Enrolled Agents, like attorneys and CPAs, have unlimited practice rights. This means they are unrestricted as to which taxpayers they can represent, what types of tax matters they can handle, and to which IRS offices they can represent clients.

When should I pay estimated taxes for my business?

Estimated quarterly tax payments are due April 15, June 15, September 15, and January 15 of the following year. (These quarters are not equal in length so don’t let the June deadline surprise you!) Make payments by mail, phone or online. Use the form 1040-ES to mail your estimated payment. Pay online using the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS), or pay by phone at 1-800-829-1040.

Is all my information secure and private?

In a time when scams and identity theft have become rampant, it is important to ensure your tax professional keeps your personal information safe and secure. The private and sensitive information contained in your tax documents are the stuff of an identity thief’s dreams: names, addresses, Social Security numbers, banking information, and so on. The most secure way to send information is the old school way of a physical handoff; however, in the digital age this can be inconvenient. If you are to send your documents over the internet be sure it is secure. Secure methods of sending files over the internet include encrypted file sharing services and encrypted or password protected email. Ask your tax professional if your files will be encrypted when sending those through a file sharing service, as you wouldn’t want your identity to be compromised. At Tax Advocate we use the highest security standards in the industry to keep your information private. Whether that be storage of your personal information, or online file sharing, we use the most up to date encryption software to make sure your privacy is not compromised.
