Question 1

How much does tax preparation cost for complex situations?

Accepted Answer

Our fees depend on the complexity of your situation, but we're transparent about costs upfront. During your free consultation, we'll give you an exact quote with no hidden fees or surprises later. Most clients find our fees are far less than the penalties and interest they'd pay by trying to handle things themselves. We often save clients thousands more than our services cost. Payment plans are available because we understand you're already dealing with financial stress. We're not here to make your situation worse.

Question 2

Can you help if I haven't filed taxes in several years?

Accepted Answer

Yes, unfiled returns are one of our specialties. The IRS gets more aggressive the longer you wait, but it's never too late to fix the situation properly. We'll prepare all missing returns and work with the IRS to minimize penalties and interest. Often we can get penalties reduced or eliminated entirely through various relief programs. The key is acting now before the IRS takes enforcement action like wage garnishment or asset seizure. Every month you wait makes the problem more expensive to solve.

Question 3

What happens during an IRS audit with your representation?

Accepted Answer

We handle all communication with the IRS examiner so you don't have to. This prevents you from accidentally saying something that could hurt your case. We prepare all documentation, respond to IRS requests, and negotiate on your behalf. Most audits result in little to no additional tax when handled properly by professionals. If additional tax is owed, we work to minimize the amount and set up payment arrangements that work for your budget. The goal is resolving the audit with the least possible impact on your finances.

Question 4

How long does it take to resolve tax problems?

Accepted Answer

Simple payment plans can be set up in a few weeks. More complex situations like penalty abatement or settlement negotiations typically take 2-6 months. The timeline depends on your specific situation and how quickly the IRS responds. We keep you updated throughout the process so you always know where things stand. What's important is stopping collection action quickly. We can often get wage garnishments and bank levies released within days while we work on the long-term solution.

Question 5

Do you guarantee your tax preparation work?

Accepted Answer

We stand behind our work completely. If we make an error in your tax preparation, we'll fix it at no charge and pay any penalties or interest caused by our mistake. Our experienced team rarely makes errors because we double-check everything before submission. But when you're dealing with complex tax situations, having that guarantee gives you peace of mind. We also provide ongoing support after your case is resolved to help you stay compliant and avoid future problems. Prevention is always better than cleanup.

Question 6

Can you help with both federal and Pennsylvania state taxes?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Many Fallsdale residents have problems with both IRS and Pennsylvania Department of Revenue. We handle both simultaneously to resolve your complete tax situation. Pennsylvania has its own collection procedures and relief programs that work differently from federal options. We know both systems and can coordinate resolution strategies effectively. This saves you time and money compared to hiring separate representatives for federal and state issues. One team, one strategy, complete resolution.
