Tax Planning & Avoiding Penalties
- 4 hours retainer required
We do “estimated” tax returns prepared in the off season with your most current pay stubs and/or other income for tax planning. Its sole purpose is to assess and estimate what your refund/balance may be at the time of tax season. For those who often owe the IRS during tax season, it is beneficial to know how much you are trending to owe. It gives you ample time to adjust your withholdings and/or put money aside to avoid any unwanted penalties and undesirable surprises when filing your actual tax return. This service is highly sought after here at Richard Colins, and has saved many from penalties and headaches.

Quickfire Q&A Sessions
Questions during and pertaining to the filing of a current tax return is very different from questions regarding bespoke advice on what a taxpayer should do in different circumstances. That falls into the Tax Advisory services for loopholes and advantages. All other quickfire questions are prepaid on the first full hour regardless of how much time is used. That is so no one feels rushed while helping our clients the best we can on the initial call. before the services begin. Any unused time of 20 minutes on the initial hour can be credited to the next Q&A call. Additional time needed will be invoiced per 30 minutes and to be paid before the services begin.

  • NOTE: Richard Colins Team takes full responsibility for any honest mistakes. No fees are invoiced for any audit work that results through the mistakes made by our office.
