Carol,
When do I need to hire a CPA, like yourself?
The following are some examples of when you should hire a CPA:
- You receive a letter from the IRS or state department of taxation.
- You hire an employee.
- You hate record keeping and want someone else to do it.
- You know there are more tax deductions that you could be taking.
- Tax forms confuse you.
- You hate tax preparation and want someone else to do it.
- When you need help setting up a record keeping system.
- When you need to be trained in QuickBooks.
- You need advice on the pros and cons of Limited Liability Company (LLC) status.
- You have heard that you can reduce your income tax by forming a corporation.
- A friend is audited for something that you have been doing for years.
