How much does small business tax preparation cost in Phoenix? A typical Phoenix small business return (single-member LLC on Schedule C, partnership 1065, or S-corp 1120-S) runs $500–$1,500 depending on transaction volume, number of states, and whether bookkeeping clean-up is needed. We quote flat fees in writing up front — no hourly billing.
Do you handle Arizona TPT (transaction privilege tax) at tax time? Yes. Arizona's TPT is filed monthly or quarterly with state, county, and Phoenix city components. We reconcile your TPT filings to your books during tax prep so your federal return matches what you reported to the Arizona Department of Revenue.
Can you help me elect S-corp status for my Phoenix LLC? Yes — the S-corp election usually saves Phoenix self-employed owners thousands in self-employment tax once profit clears roughly $50K–$75K, but only if you run actual payroll and pay reasonable comp. We run the breakeven math, file Form 2553, and set up Arizona-compliant payroll.
Are tax preparation services tax deductible for Phoenix business owners? For Phoenix business filers: yes. The portion of your tax-prep invoice tied to Schedule C, your rental Schedule E, or your business return (1065, 1120-S, 1120) is a fully deductible ordinary business expense on next year's return. We break the invoice out so you capture every dollar.
Do I have to drive to your office or can we file remotely? Whatever you prefer. Our Phoenix office at 2233 N 7th Street is open for in-person meetings, and we also do 100% remote with secure document upload, Zoom review calls, and e-signature.
Can you fix prior-year returns or unfiled years? Yes. We routinely file 2–5 years of catch-up returns, pull IRS transcripts, negotiate penalty abatement, and set up installment agreements with the IRS and Arizona DOR. Most Phoenix clients are fully current within 30–60 days.
