Personal tax returns for owners and families

We prepare your Form 1040 and state return online, from K-1s and home offices to rental property and quarterly estimates. You upload documents to a secure portal, review the return with your accountant and we e-file it. No office visit, no waiting room.

Updated November 2026

What's included

What do we prepare for you?

A return you understand before you sign it. Single W-2 and nothing else? You probably don't need us, and we'll say so.

Form 1040 and your state

Joint or separate, and we check which comes out better.

Business income

Schedule C, self-employment tax, and K-1s from your S-Corp or partnership.

Rental property

Schedule E with depreciation, property by property.

Family forms

Childcare, education credits and health savings accounts.

A review call

We walk through the return, and what changed from last year, before you sign.

Next year's estimates

If you're self-employed, quarterly amounts you can plan around.

Tick them off as you gather them. Nothing here is sent anywhere.

When is my 2026 return due?

April 15, 2027. Form 4868 extends filing to October 15, 2027, but not the time to pay, so we estimate what you owe and you pay by April 15.

I'm self-employed. What changes?

You pay 15.3% self-employment tax on most of your profit, and nobody withholds for you, so the IRS expects quarterly estimates. Once profit is high enough, an S-Corp election can lower the bill.

I moved or worked in more than one state.

You may owe part-year returns in each state, or a nonresident return where you worked. We sort out which states get a return and make sure you aren't taxed twice on the same income.

What if I get an IRS letter after you file?

Send it to us. For returns we prepared, we explain the letter and prepare the response for you to sign.

Can you prepare returns for years I missed?

Yes. We pull your IRS transcripts to see what the IRS already has, then prepare the missing years and quote the work up front.
