However, after April 15, clients must make an appointment because the office isnt open everyday, and during those times we are focus on working with clients in the Entertainment Industry (Click on the link "Business Hours.."). Assignments are completed quickly and accurately, regardless of their complexities and changes in the tax laws. Written testimonials we have obtained during our annual customers/clients survey are overwhelmingly impressive.

Upon completion of Clients Tax Returns, we will pay the Post-Office for Regular Mail and return ALL Clients documents and a copy of the tax return that we prepared for them.We recommend that clients notify us by Telephone, FAX and/or E-mail the same day that they mail us their documents so that we can track their arrival. We respect clients who are organized and who are cooperating with us to get the job done. We will honor our commitments under the law, and we expect every Client to honor their responsibility.

***NOTE:- We empower ambition! You dont have to work in a job that you hate. You can start your own business and take control of your own destiny, and become Financially Independent like many people have done and have become; OR you can Log on to these websites and apply for the job that You Are Qualified for; and You Are Passionate about:-ZipRecruiter.com; SisInc.com; IacGlobal.com; Kirkland.com; Skadden.com; Whitecase.com; Hok.com; Som.com; Gensler.com; Slgreen.com; Brookfieldproperties.com; Blackstone.com; BXP.com; InfoSys.com; ExploreTalent.com; RobertHalf.com; FlexCare.com; Jobs.Aerotek.com; KellyServices.com; KornFerry.com; Careers.Amtrack.com; AllianceRecruitmentAgency.com; BrownSchroeder.com; RandStadUsa.com; NewYorkJobDepartment.com. If you wish to hire household workers:-HouseHoldStaff.com and Maids.com. If you want to set-up an LLC or Corporation, call "Legal-Zoom" at (800) 773-0888; or (323) 962-8600.

**A)Tax Refund (or Balance due the IRS or State):- We will focus on every Tax Break and help you keep more of your money. If the IRS or State deposit less Tax Refund into your bank account than you had expected, dont panic.The IRS and State know Computers and  Software technolog are not always 100% perfect. Sometimes there are glitches in the software. Hence, the IRS or State will mail you a letter explaining and outlining the reason(s) for the shortage; and the IRS or State will ask you if you Agree or Disagree. When you receive the letter, please send it to me so that we can compare the information we have on file against what the IRS or State is saying in their letter (That is called Checks and Balances). We need the letter before we can proceed to argue/settle the dispute/disparity. Every Tax-Accountant MUST follow Federal and State procedures to settle taxpayers disputes with the taxing authorities.(IRS Circular 230 Rules) - IRS (800) 829-1040 from 7am EST.

**B) Focus Group:-We have recently added a small group of Customer Centric individuals from each industry that we serve. They give us monthly update and feedback. They track economic trends and changes in business dynamics in their industry. They have indepth knowledge about our market segments; and they are Straight-forward and Factually deep.They have a strong track record transforming their company and their industry.

**C) Taxation and Accounting Software Vs Professionalism:-  Professionals need great Software Programs. However, the Best Software Program is limited in Scope and Industry-Specific Information or Knowledge. Hence, Software Programs are NOT Subject Matter Experts. Professtionals who are speciaized in an Industry are Subject Matter Experts. They can take a Wholistic Approach and navagate through Clients information, evaluate each client needs, and craft and execute the best strategy that will benefit each client in accordance with changes in the economy and the rapidly changing tax laws to ensure each Client isnt paying more tax than the law allows. The Bottom line is you can buy a Software Program or Hire an Individual. Freedom of Choice!!

**D) Research Companies we use:- Thompson Reuters(Thompson RIA); Prentice-Hall (PH);  Warren, Gorham & Lamont(WG&L); Commerce Clearing House (CCH); Parker Tax Pro Library(PTP); and The National Association of Tax Practitioners(NATP). They are the best/legendary and they are also used by IRS auditors. Hence, you are in capable hands with us.

You will be given ONE copy of your Federal and State(s) tax return, in accordance with Section 6695(a) and IRS circular 230 rules. All your documents and records will be return to you for safekeeping in case the IRS or State decides to perform a routine check on your tax return, although our clients seldon get audited. If you receive a letter from the IRS or State DONT throw it away. Please let us know by E-Mail; or you can leave Your Name, Phone Number, and a Brief Message on the Business Voice Mail. We will contact you and have you Fax or Mail the letter to us.

**F) Business Tax Returns:-Please get our APPROVAL first, then send us a copy of your Corporation TRIAL BALANCE in the General Ledger (Income, Expenses, and Balance Sheet information); and we will prepare your BUSINESS Tax Return within 2 to 5 days). According to the IRS & States tax laws, those tax returns are due on or before March 15 (IRC Section 6072).File Form 4868 or Form 7004 on IRS.gov and avoid paying a Late Filing Penalty of $220 and $200 to the State PER MONTH. (There is a Grace Period of 2.5 months after the end of December. Business owners are keeping business Income & Expenses on computer software and they update this data every month (Jan. to Dec.) to operate an Efficient and Profitable business). 

2) What clients must do:- Clients must keep copies of their tax return for 10-years. It is the SOLE responsibility of every client to make copies of their tax return and give them to 3rd parties(Banks, Mortgage Company, Attorney, etc) if the client is required to do so.

Clients should select the industry that they are interested in or concerned about and click on the link to get access to the webpage and the "Industry-Specific" information.
5)

Competitors:- We DONT waste valuable time talking about competitors. They are irrelevant!! They are NOT a Competitive Threat to us, and they are not paying us to promote them; so we dont know if they are alive. "We are Mission-driven!!". We are Pre-occupied with Promoting our services in the USA and Overseas and Obtaining and Retaining clients. We get things done quickly and we deliver exceptional results everytime; and we contribute our insights/core competencies to top business publications that promote our services to their readers/audience. Our Clients have all kinds of money and they thank God we had their backs (Excellence of Execution & Clients Satisfaction). Thats empowerment! That is how we earn MONEY. Isnt thats what we all care about? Lets keep it real!!

6) Telephone & Voicemail:- We expect ALL callers/clients to speak to us when we answer the phone, or leave a message on the business voicemail. Some callers/clients have adopted a habit of hanging up when we answer the phone; and they expect us to return their calls. Our business policy with regards to this situation is: "Calls will not be returned to callers who hang up when we answer the phone; or didnt leave their name, telephone number, and the reason they are calling on our voice mail."
7) Data Safety(E-Commerce):- Clients Data is not stored on our office computers. It is encrypted/scrambled and stored in a Cyber Cabinet away from the office(Remote Access). Remote Access helps us respond to clients request regardless of clients time zones. From that central location, we promote our services agressively to our target audiences in the USA and Overseas. We have built a pool/funnel/pipeline of pre-qualified prospects that want to do business with us. Whenever we need to add new clients, we contact/notify them and start doing business with those that want to do business with us. We make sure this pool/pipeline is constantly replenished throughout the year. We leave NOTHING to luck or chance. We dont take anything for grantedRemote Access is also part of our Business Continuity Plan. It will enable us to recover/resume operations within 48 hours after computer theft and/or computers destroyed in the office during the occurance of a natural disaster. In either case, new computers will be shipped to us overnight at a designated location in accordance with our present agreement with Dell.
8) What clients must do if they have reasonable questions or have a problem with the work that we have done for them:- Please exercise your rights and call my office (718) 677- 4006 to speak to me, Clem Barry. However, response may be quicker if clients send me an e-mail at Clembarry@aol.com outlining their concerns/questions. I take customers concerns VERY SERIOUSLY.

Honest Feedback from intelligent people is VERY important/empowering to us.

We DONT get involve in Street Drama, Hatred/Malevolence, Mischief, and Conflict of Interest; and we DONT listen to RUBBISH. Those things and other "Halla-baloos" or Shenanigans CANT bring us MONEY. In Laymans term / Colloquial Language / Street Palance:- "If it CANT make DOLLARS, it DOESNT make sense!".
