TAX PREPERATION & TAX PLANNING

Puzzled by the tax laws?

Unsure of which deductions and credits to take?

Today's tax laws are so complex that filing even a relatively simple tax return can be confusing. It’s not surprising that preparing your own income tax return can leave you with more questions than answers. That’s why millions of taxpayers utilize tax professionals to prepare and electronically file their tax returns. It’s just too easy to overlook the deductions and credits to which you are entitled. Nationally, many taxpayers believe they benefited from using a professional tax preparer.

Strategic Financial Services you’ll find trained tax preparers who understand your tax situation. We’ll address your concerns and answer all of your questions with professional, fast, and friendly service – the way it’s meant to be! We make customer service our top priority, so when you’re looking for a tax preparation firm, Strategic Financial Services is your best choice.

Get Your Refund Fast!

At Strategic Financial Services we provide full service individual federal and state income tax preparation and fill your need for competent tax return preparation. Our tax professionals are thoroughly trained to find the tax deductions and credits that apply to your unique situation. We can help you with tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), the Child Tax Credit, and the Credit for the Elderly or the Disabled for which you may qualify. In addition to tax return preparation we also offer electronic filing. With electronic filing your tax return is filed directly with the IRS and your state’s Department of Revenue. By taking advantage of electronic filing you’ll receive your refund in half the time compared to returns filed on paper and mailed in – even faster if your refund is deposited directly into your bank account or if you take advantage of a tax refund bank product such as a Preferred Electronic Refund Check (PERC). You can receive your refund check right in our office! Best of all, you won’t need any money up front to pay us for our services because our fees will be deducted from your check.

Quick, Competent and Cost Effective Tax Return Preparation... at Last!

At Strategic Financial Services we do more than just complete your tax forms after the end of the year. In order to maximize your deductions and credits and minimize the tax you pay we keep abreast of all changes and developments in federal and state tax laws and advise you throughout the year, so you're in the best possible position when it's time to file your tax return. We provide professional tax preparation services of the highest quality and value and we'll respond to your needs quickly, competently, and cost-effectively. Tax consultations are always free at Strategic Financial Services. Free double-checking of prior year’s returns prepared by another tax preparer are part of our commitment to your needs.

By participating in our exclusive SafetyNet protection plan when your tax return is e-filed you can relax, confident in the knowledge that SafetyNet covers any additional taxes, interest and penalties that may result from an audit, up to a maximum of $3,000. SafetyNet will also alert us if your tax return is a "high risk for audit" return.

Here's what you’ll get at Strategic Financial Services...

Your tax return will be prepared by one of our tax professionals and then rechecked for accuracy. Any additional tax deductions or credits that might be available to you will be identified. We’ll also identify any potential problems the IRS may look at more closely. Then we’ll electronically file your tax return, and if you desire we’ll provide you with a bank issued refund check. We’ll show you how to adjust your payroll withholding to get more money back in your paycheck each week. Why give the IRS an interest free loan for a year? We’ll also show you potential deductions to limit your tax liability for next year.

Here’s what you’ll need to bring with you…
