Pay $0 Upfront*

With this option, you can pay your tax prep fees directly from your refund instead of out of pocket. It makes filing easier and more manageable. If your return qualifies, you will only pay after your refund arrives. Our team will guide you through every step and keep it simple and straightforward.
 
To qualify, your federal refund must be more than your estimated tax prepartion service fee.

Tax Write Offs for Small Business Owners

The Tax Index is a practical tool to help you organize your receipts, track expenses, and stay prepared for tax season. It shows you how to record everything to make sure you're claiming eligible write offs on your tax return; making filing easier, faster, and more accurate.

File Your Business Return

If your business is structured as a Partnership or S-Corporation, you’re required to file a separate business tax return each year. This return reports the income, expenses, and activity of the business itself before anything can be placed on your individual tax return. Because these business returns feed directly into your personal taxes, they must be completed first. The IRS deadline for filing these returns is March 16, 2026.

Partnership

$800 - $1200

Partnership filings cover preparing the Form 1065 and the K-1s for each partner, making sure income and expenses are recorded correctly and flow smoothly to everyone’s personal tax return.

 

The rate increases when your business has more moving parts, such as several partners, activity in more than one state, or books that need extra attention before the return can be completed.

 

Your final rate is always confirmed before anything is filed.

S-Corporation

$900 - $2000

S-Corporation filings cover preparing the federal 1120S, one state return, and the K-1s for all shareholders, along with a full review of the information you submit.

 

The starting rate increases if your business operates in more than one state, has multiple shareholders, or needs extra cleanup so the return can be completed accurately.

 

Your final rate is always confirmed before filing, so you know exactly what to expect from start to finish.
