Tax preparation is about filing your return accurately. Tax planning is proactive, helping you reduce taxes year-round through deductions, credits, and smart financial decisions. Padgett offers both to keep more money in your pocket.

You’ll need income records (W-2s, 1099s), expense receipts (business, medical, charitable), and financial statements if you're a business owner. Need help? Padgett provides a detailed checklist so you’re prepared.

Common deductions include home office expenses, vehicle mileage, equipment, marketing costs, and employee wages. Padgett helps you identify all eligible deductions to maximize your savings. For a more comprehensive list, check out What's Deductible?

While there are different due dates that mark “tax season” for different businesses, proactive tax planning takes year-round strategy. Reach out as soon as possible so you don’t miss out on tax savings that may require pre-planning and financial decisions throughout the year.

Just looking for preparation? The sooner, the better, as our preparers get very busy when tax deadlines are nearing. We can assist with extensions for last-minute filings, but the tax payments themselves are still due, even if you file an extension.

Padgett offers competitive prices in accordance with our expertise and level of service. Pricing is dependent upon your tax preparation and planning needs. It will be discussed once we've reviewed your situation.
