Lane 02 · Tax Preparation
Every return is reviewed by Deborah before it files.
Not spot-checked. Read. Thirty-seven years of pattern recognition applied to your return before it goes anywhere, which is how things get caught that software does not flag.
What is covered
Returns we prepare
Individual
Form 1040 and every schedule behind it, including Schedule C, Schedule E rental income, capital gains, and multi-state filings.
Business
S corporations, C corporations, partnerships and multi-member LLCs, including the K-1s that flow to every owner.
Trusts and estates
Fiduciary returns, and the coordination with the beneficiaries' own filings that usually gets missed.
Amended returns
Prior years reopened where something was missed, generally reachable about three years back.
Extensions
Filed properly, with the estimate that goes with them, so an extension does not turn into a penalty.
Multi-state
Moved mid-year, operate across state lines, or hold property elsewhere. Each state is its own set of rules.
How it runs
From documents to filed
One thing worth knowing
A return can only report what already happened.
If you want a different number next year, the work has to happen before the year closes. Preparation clients who also plan are the ones whose bill actually moves.
