Tax Advisory

Tax Advisory services at Finance Vision Zone, Columbus Ohio

Most tax work happens too late. By the time a return is being prepared in March, nearly every decision that determined the tax bill has already been made. Our advisory practice runs the other way round: we project your position mid-year, adjust withholding and estimated payments while there is still time, and use the filing season to document what happened rather than to discover it.

We prepare individual returns including schedules for investments, rental property and self-employment; small business returns across common entity types; estimated payment schedules; extensions; amended returns; and correspondence with tax authorities, including notices, instalment agreements and penalty abatement requests.

Who This Service Is For

Salaried households with investment income, property or complex deductions; self-employed professionals and contractors; small business owners deciding between entity structures; and anyone who has received an IRS or state notice they do not understand.

  • Preparation and electronic filing of federal and state returns
  • Mid-year tax projection with withholding and estimate adjustments
  • Deduction and credit review specific to your situation

Tax Advisory FAQ

When your situation has variables software cannot judge: self-employment income, rental property, equity compensation, a business entity decision, a large one-off gain, back filings, or an open notice from the IRS.

Yes. We can prepare the return, request penalty abatement where grounds exist, and set up an instalment agreement. Filing on time matters even if you cannot pay in full, because failure-to-file penalties are far larger than failure-to-pay penalties.

Our Enrolled Agent is authorised to represent clients before the IRS for examinations, collections and appeals on returns we prepared, and can assist on others subject to engagement.

Individual returns and business filings are quoted as a flat fee based on complexity, agreed before we start. Year-round advisory is an annual retainer. There are no hourly surprises.

This is common and fixable. We gather the missing records, prepare back returns, calculate what is owed with penalties and interest, and arrange a payment plan. The sooner it is handled, the less it costs.

Fix This Year Before It Is Filed

A mid-year projection costs one meeting and can change what you owe next April.
