What clients may not be a fit for us?
We value the public and will never turn down the opportunity to meet with a new client for a complementary 15 min discovery call. We also understand the tax system is so vast like an ocean and therefore we cannot be everywhere at once. With that said, there are client groups which may not fit our service offering and those include: taxpayers accustomed to do-it-yourself tax products and pricing, taxpayers who perpetually neglect their taxes year-over-year, and business owners who neglect their own bookkeeping and refuse to hire a bookkeeping service.
How long does it take for you to complete my taxes?
Generally, individual tax returns can take 1-4 business days to complete. Business tax returns can take 7-14 business days to complete. For a more efficient turn around, it is best the client provide all pertinent documentation and financials.
Is sharing my files with Hojjati CPA safe?
Client confidentiality and data security is one of our top priorities. We never share any client data with any one unless its with your expressed written consent. We use end-to-end encryption when sending and receiving files. Your information is safe with Hojjati CPA.
My Tax Situation isn't straight forward. How can you help?
Everyone's tax situation is different and if you own a business your situation may even be more unique than others. Schedule a complementary dicovery call today.
I haven't filed my taxes in over a year. Can you help me?
Yes, we can file your back taxes, however, due to the high volume of current year tax returns, we will have to take care of your back taxes after April 15th. We do make an exception based on urgency (rush rates will apply).
