MAURA FLAHERTY CPA
  • Tax and Business Services
"I highly recommend Ms. Maura Flaherty. We had a professional prepare what  turned out to be a disaster of a tax return. He would never even return our  calls to fix the problem. Ms. Flaherty was able to review all the records and revise the return for us with no problems. She was cognizant of the tax  guidelines in our state, even though she lives across the country. She was totally professional and returned our calls immediately.  The taxes for the following year were also prepared  with care and on time. She even filed an extension for me when she could not reach me to confirm that I had filed on  time (I hadn't)! I cannot recommend her highly enough."

ENGAGEMENT LETTER

​APRIL TAX FILING DEADLINE POLICY  ​
ALL TAX INFORMATION must be received by March 29th. If all information is not received, then a tax extension will need to be filed.
EXTENSIONS & THE IRS
It's important to note that filing a tax return on extension has the downside of also extending the time your return is subject to an audit. So, if you filed your tax return on April 15, the IRS has 3 years from April 15 to audit it. However, if you had requested an automatic extension and filed Oct. 15, the IRS has 3 years from Oct. 15, to audit your return and assess any additional tax and penalties due.
FEE PAYMENT POLICY 
Fee is payable at the time the tax return is completed and access is provided. Payment should be made within a week of receipt and returns will not be e-filed until fees are paid in full.
