- On or after January 22nd, cancellation or rescheduling of an office or phone appointment with less than seven days notice will result in a $50 surcharge. There is no need to reschedule only because you are still waiting for tax documents. We will accomodate you in this common situation at your original appointment by completing everything else.
- Except where you are just waiting for tax documents to arrive, for office appointments only, we will be charging additional fees for unprepared clients who require extra follow-up time because they did not follow our appointment instructions and were unprepared as a result. In the past, this lack of readiness has caused delays for other clients who were prepared. Read more
- Do not send us anything by US Postal Service (mail) as we will accept no responsibility for its safe delivery. We are flat-out telling you not to mail anything because of the high risk of identity theft from stolen mail, a risk you must completely assume, especially since we offer our secure client portal. Do not use DropBox, Google Drive or unencrypted email, either. If absolutely necessary, use the fax machine at any office store. Read more
