The local tax
Battle Creek levies its own city income tax.
Your return is no longer simple.
Investments, a rental property, a side business or income in another state. Brent prepares your federal and state returns and tells you up front what affects the price.
Life changed this year.
A move, a new job, a home purchase, a growing family. Changes like these can affect your return, and they are worth discussing when it is prepared.
Switching accountants mid-year
Prior-year tax returns, recent financial statements, access to your accounting software, and bank and card statements. Your previous accountant can provide copies of your records at your request, and Brent can coordinate that request with your permission.
