Common Questions Before Reaching Out
If this is your first time talking to a CPA, the questions below are the ones we hear most often during introductory calls. Reading them ahead of time tends to make the consultation itself shorter and more productive — you arrive already knowing the basics of what we do, what we charge, and what an engagement looks like in practice.
Is the consultation actually free?
Yes. The first 30-minute call is free with no obligation to engage us afterward. We use the time to understand your situation, identify what kind of work you actually need (which is sometimes different from what you came in asking about), and decide together whether we are a fit. If we are not, we will tell you and, when possible, point you to a more appropriate firm.
Do I have to be in New Jersey?
No. We are licensed in both New Jersey and New York and work entirely virtually. Our active client base is concentrated across the NY/NJ/PA tri-state corridor, but the engagement model — secure portal, video meetings, encrypted document exchange — works for any U.S. taxpayer with U.S. tax obligations. We do not take engagements outside that core competency, including international tax filings (FBAR/8938 disclosures aside) or states where we lack relevant experience.
What does it cost?
It depends on what you actually need, which is what the consultation is for. As a rough guide: individual returns typically run a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on complexity (rental properties, K-1s, multi-state, equity comp); business returns scale with entity type and the state of your books; ongoing bookkeeping ranges from $300 to $4,000+ per month based on volume and complexity. We publish detailed bookkeeping pricing on the 2026 cost guide if you want to estimate before the call.
What documents should I bring to the consultation?
Nothing is required for the introductory call — we keep it conversational. If you want us to look at something specific, the most useful items are your most recent business and personal tax returns, a recent profit-and-loss statement (or QuickBooks login), and any IRS or state notices you have received. None of those are necessary to get started; they just let us give more concrete answers if you want them.
When should I call versus fill out the form?
If you are facing a deadline-sensitive issue (an active IRS notice, an audit letter, a missed filing) call us directly at (201) 800-2330. For everything else — pricing questions, longer-term planning, switching firms, starting a new business — the form is faster because it routes to the right team member based on what you describe. We respond to all inquiries within one business day.
Do you take on clients mid-year, or only during tax season?
We onboard clients year-round. The clients who come to us in November or December often see the most immediate value because there is still time to execute year-end planning moves — retirement-plan contributions, charitable bunching, S-Corp election decisions for the following tax year, depreciation strategy on equipment placed in service before December 31. Mid-year onboardings (April through September) typically focus on bookkeeping cleanup and quarterly-estimate recalibration so the year-end conversation is a planning conversation rather than a triage exercise.
What if I am leaving another firm? How does the transition work?
It is straightforward. After we sign an engagement letter, we send a signed Form 8821 (Tax Information Authorization) or, where appropriate, Form 2848 (Power of Attorney) so we can request prior-year transcripts and depreciation schedules directly from the IRS and state agencies. We also request your prior-preparer's file copy of the most recent two to three years of returns and accompanying workpapers — under AICPA rules, prior preparers are required to provide certain client-owned records on request, and most do so without friction. The transition is largely invisible to the client beyond signing the authorization forms.
