The local tax
A city income tax is a local tax on income earned by residents, on work done in the city, or on business profit, and it is separate from the federal and state returns.
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
The books can be picked up from the start of any month. Many businesses switch after year-end or after filing, and a mid-year switch works too.
