Once we understand your situation, we provide you with a comprehensive checklist of documents to gather, making the process as smooth as possible.

Preparation

Based on your consultation, we carefully prepare your tax return using professional tax software and our extensive knowledge of federal and Mississippi tax law. We review every document you provide to ensure nothing is missed.

Each client receives personalized attention from our experienced tax professionals. We meticulously categorize income, identify all eligible deductions and credits, and ensure accurate calculations throughout your return. Our team stays current on the latest tax law changes to maximize your benefit.

Throughout the preparation process, we maintain open communication. If we have questions about your documents or identify opportunities for additional savings, we'll reach out promptly to discuss your options.

The attention to detail was incredible. They found deductions I had been missing for years and explained everything in terms I could understand!

Review & File

Before filing, we schedule a comprehensive review meeting with you. We walk through your completed return line by line, explaining each entry and answering all your questions.

This is your opportunity to understand exactly what's being reported, ask about any deductions or credits, and feel completely confident before we file. We never rush this process—your understanding and peace of mind are our priorities.

Once you approve, we electronically file your return and provide you with copies for your records. We also offer year-round support if you receive any IRS correspondence or have tax questions.

Included in this phase

  • Line-by-line review. We explain every aspect of your return so you understand exactly what we're filing on your behalf. No confusing jargon—just clear answers.
  • Electronic filing. Fast, secure e-filing with the IRS and Mississippi Department of Revenue gets your refund to you as quickly as possible.
  • Ongoing support. Even after tax season, we're here to help with IRS notices, tax planning, and questions that come up throughout the year.
