Schedule Free ConsultationComprehensive Tax Services Tailored for New Jersey
New Jersey presents a uniquely demanding tax environment. Between the federal tax code, the New Jersey Gross Income Tax, the Corporation Business Tax, the Business Alternative Income Tax (BAIT) election, and the ongoing complexity of operating across multiple states, business owners and individuals in Bergen County and throughout NJ face tax challenges that go far beyond what off-the-shelf software can handle.
ProAxis Tax & Accounting Services was founded specifically to serve the NJ business community with CPA-level expertise, delivered in a modern, fully virtual format. Whether you are a solo professional filing your first Schedule C, an S-corporation owner looking to optimize your distributions, or a growing e-commerce brand navigating post-Wayfair sales tax compliance, we have a service designed for your situation.
We believe that taxes should be planned, not just paid. Too many business owners in New Jersey find themselves writing large checks to the IRS and the state every April simply because no one looked at their situation strategically during the year. Our approach is fundamentally different: we work with you throughout the year, not just at filing season, to ensure that every legal deduction is captured, every available election is evaluated, and your overall tax burden is as low as the law allows.
Based in Hasbrouck Heights, NJ, we serve clients across Bergen County, Essex County, Passaic County, Hudson County, and throughout New Jersey — all fully virtually, with no need to come into an office. Our clients include S-corporation owners, LLC members, high-income W-2 earners, real estate investors, e-commerce sellers, healthcare professionals, and multi-generational families with estate planning needs.

Understanding the New Jersey Tax Landscape
New Jersey consistently ranks among the highest-tax states in the nation. With a top marginal Gross Income Tax rate of 10.75% — one of the highest state income tax rates in the country — and property taxes that average over $9,000 per year statewide, the stakes for proper tax planning are enormous for NJ residents and business owners.
The federal $10,000 cap on state and local tax (SALT) deductions, introduced by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, has had an outsized impact on New Jersey taxpayers, many of whom previously deducted far more than $10,000 in state income and property taxes. New Jersey responded by enacting the Business Alternative Income Tax (BAIT) — a mechanism that allows pass-through entity owners to effectively exceed the SALT cap — and understanding how to leverage this election is one of the most valuable things a NJ business owner can do.
Beyond income taxes, New Jersey businesses must also navigate sales tax obligations, payroll taxes, unemployment insurance taxes, and — if they have employees in or customers from other states — an increasingly complex multi-state compliance landscape. The post-Wayfair economic nexus rules have created new sales tax obligations for many NJ-based e-commerce sellers and service businesses that previously had no out-of-state tax presence.
ProAxis specializes in helping NJ businesses and individuals understand this landscape clearly, make smart decisions, and stay compliant — without overpaying.
