The Certified Public Accountant designation, most often referred to as CPA, is given to accountants who have passed an exam and certain work requirements. The CPA license is granted at the state or territory level. There are 54 such jurisdictions in the United States and its territories.

Whether you're self-employed, have a handful of employees, or own a much larger company, the benefits of running a business come with a lot of accounting and tax hassle, but a tax accountant can help make everything a lot easier.
Since an enrolled agent specializes in tax law and has to pass stringent IRS exams, you might think they would be more expensive to work with than other types of accountants. Actually, depending on the complexity of your situation, it can often be cheaper to have an EA prepare your tax return.
Did you know that an un-enrolled tax return preparer cannot sign documents for a taxpayer? They can only represent taxpayers in limited situations before the IRS, revenue agents, and customer service representatives. For expert tax help that can represent you at all levels, contact our enrolled agents for tax specialization.

Are you familiar with all of the deductions that your business can legally take advantage of? That’s an important reason to hire an accountant, particularly because tax laws change on a yearly basis and one of the responsibilities of an accountant is to be aware of any tax law changes that affect a client.
The bottom line is, the US tax code is a complicated system, and it changes from year to year, sometimes significantly. Rather than trying to keep track of all the changes, your best bet (and the way to ensure the biggest refund) is to hire a tax accountant.
Do you earn more than $200,000 a year? If so, you should strongly consider having an accountant handle your taxes. Not only are a wider array of potential tax-saving credit and deductions available, but the odds of an IRS audit increase by 400 percent for people that earn between $200,000 and $1 million.
Did you owe a larger amount of taxes this year than you thought you should? There could be a chance that your W-4 withholding amounts are off. It’s a good idea to visit to your company’s human resources department and find out if you should fill out a new form. If so, we can assist you with any questions that you may have.
