WHO WE WORK WITH

Onboarding an Oro Valley household

We start with a discovery call, then go over your last two or three tax returns alongside your vesting schedule and brokerage statements. That review sometimes turns up an overpaid basis, a missed election or withholding that ran short, and we check your filings for these items. You get the findings in writing, and a fixed fee agreed before we touch anything.

Equity and practice compliance we handle

Federal and Arizona filings get prepared together, with RSU and ESPP reporting checked line by line and withholding reviewed against how your vesting actually unfolds so we can help you plan for what you may owe. Practice owners get entity structuring and payroll built around how the practice pays its owner, with any formation or succession documents coordinated with your attorney. When a business here purchases equipment or inventory from an out-of-state vendor, we review the purchase, the exemption status and whether the seller collected tax to determine if a use tax filing applies, and we report any amount owed on the same transaction privilege tax return filed with the Arizona Department of Revenue.
Most tax firms see you once a year. We build long-term relationships because consistent guidance compounds over time.

FAQs

Get answers to common questions about our tax preparation, accounting, and advisory services for businesses and individuals in your area.
I owed money in April even though taxes were withheld on my vest. What happened?
We track your vesting during the year and review your estimates or paycheck withholding so we can help you plan ahead for any shortfall. We walk through the numbers with you so you can see why the withholding on your vest fell short of the full tax owed.
How do you handle my ESPP discount on my return?
We separate the ordinary income piece already included on your W-2 from the capital gain on the sale, then review the cost basis against your broker statement, since basis adjustments and ordinary income treatment vary depending on whether the disposition is qualifying or disqualifying and on what the broker reported. This helps limit the risk of paying tax twice on the same income.
Do I need to visit your office in person?
Most Oro Valley clients never need to. We manage documents through a secure portal, stay connected by phone or video, and generally respond within one to two business days, often much sooner. If you prefer meeting in person, our Mesa office is available.
My practice buys equipment from out-of-state suppliers. Can you help us sort out whether we owe use tax?
We look at the purchase, the exemption status and whether the seller collected tax to determine if a use tax filing applies, and when it does, we report the amount owed on the same transaction privilege tax return filed with the Arizona Department of Revenue.
Can you fix returns a previous preparer got wrong?
We start by reading your last two or three returns along with your vesting schedule and brokerage records to check for items that may have been missed, such as basis errors or missed elections. We put any corrections or catch-up filings in writing before beginning the work, and one of our Enrolled Agents can represent you before the IRS, with your authorization, if the correction requires contacting the agency.
