Services

Tax planned, filed, defended.

Four tax practices under one roof: the business return, the owner’s personal return, the state and local exposure most Florida businesses assume they don’t have, and the international filings that carry the largest penalties in the code.

Tax Practices

Four returns, one set of decisions.

A business return and an owner’s 1040 are the same conversation. We file both, so the K-1 that lands in April is one we planned for in July.

Business Tax

C corp, S corp, partnership, and LLC returns — Forms 1120, 1120-S, and 1065, with the K-1s and basis schedules that follow. Includes the S-election analysis and the reasonable-salary math behind it.

Individual & Family Tax

Form 1040 and the schedules that follow a business owner home. Quarterly estimates worked against the safe-harbor rules rather than last year’s number, and coordinated with the entity return.

State & Local Tax

No Florida personal income tax does not mean no state and local exposure. Nexus studies, sales and use tax reviews, audit representation, voluntary disclosure agreements, and the county discretionary surtax.

International Tax

U.S. compliance for cross-border businesses and individuals — Forms 1120-F, 5471, 5472, 8865, 8858, FinCEN 114, and 3520, plus FIRPTA, PFIC, treaty and totalization analysis.

Overview

Year-round, not filing-season.

Most of what determines your tax bill is decided months before the return is filed. An S-corp election in October changes the number in April. A cost-seg study on a building bought in May moves depreciation into this year and shifts the estimate for next. A quarterly-estimate miss in June turns into a penalty in September.

We run tax as a year-round practice: a review in July, another in October, and a filing-season execution that’s already been set up months earlier. When something unusual comes up in your business mid-year, we hear about it then, not when we’re assembling the return.

Filing itself is the last, unglamorous step. The interesting work is what happens between filings.

How It Works

Three steps, from onboarding through filing.

  1. Onboarding

    Two prior-year returns, current bookkeeping, entity docs. We assemble the picture and flag anything that needs a decision before we file next.

  2. Mid-year planning

    July and October check-ins on actual year-to-date income, upcoming transactions, and estimate math. Anything structural is decided here, not in March.

  3. Filing

    Returns drafted from a book of decisions already made. You review, we file, and the number in April is the number we’ve been targeting since July.
