Tax preparation
Accurate work.
Clear answers.
No runaround.
Professional tax preparation for individuals, families, self-employed taxpayers, and clients who need help getting prior filings back on track.
Who we serve
Tax support built around the real return—not a one-size-fits-all counter.
Every engagement begins with a secure intake and a review of your complete records. We identify what applies, what is missing, and what needs clarification before the return is finalized.
Individual and family returns
Preparation for wage earners, retirees, college students, families, and taxpayers with common credits and deductions. We explain the result in plain language and review the filing with you before authorization.
Self-employed and Schedule C returns
For independent contractors, freelancers, gig workers, 1099 earners, and single-member LLC owners with organized business records. If bookkeeping or reconstruction is required, that work is scoped and priced separately.
Prior-year and amended returns
Behind on filing or discovered something after filing? We review available records and prior returns to determine the correct next step. Amended-return work begins only after the original filing and supporting information are reviewed.
- W-2 and retirement income
- Dependents and family credits
- 1099 and contract income
- Schedule C businesses
- Prior-year filings
- Amended returns
- Extensions and follow-up filing
- Federal and applicable state returns

Pay with your refund
Get your refund your way
Don't want to pay your tax prep fee up front? With a Refund Transfer from Santa Barbara Tax Products Group (sbtpg), your fees are paid from your federal refund, so there's nothing out of pocket today. You don't need good credit. The rest of your refund is direct deposited to your bank account.
Refund Transfers are deposit products using Green Dot Bank, Member FDIC, that enable certain deductions from the account to be processed. Refund Transfers are not loans. Tax refund and e-filing are required in order to receive Refund Transfer. Fees apply. Terms and conditions are subject to change without notice. Ask your preparer about other IRS e-file options, some of which are provided at no additional cost.
Fast Forward by sbtpg is provided by Green Dot Bank. Terms and fees apply. To be eligible for Fast Forward, the taxpayer must have a Refund Transfer for a federal tax refund that is no more than $10,000. Availability may vary based on the taxpayer's bank participating in Real-Time Payments, IRS pre-notification of pending refund deposit, and availability of funds. $25.00 fee is not charged if the taxpayer is ineligible. Check with transmitter for availability.
Corpus Christi & the Coastal Bend
Self-employed tax preparation that starts with the whole business picture.
Schedule C filers rarely have “just a tax return.” Income may arrive through 1099s, card processors, cash apps, checks, and direct deposits, while expenses live across bank accounts, credit cards, mileage records, receipts, and bookkeeping software. We help organize that picture before treating any number as final.
Our secure virtual process is built for independent contractors, gig workers, service providers, and single-member LLC owners in Corpus Christi, the Coastal Bend, and throughout Texas. You receive a clear records request, follow-up questions that make sense, and an explanation of the completed return before filing.
When the books and the return need to agree
If your QuickBooks file is incomplete, unreconciled, or different from the records used for tax preparation, we identify the bookkeeping work separately. That keeps cleanup transparent and helps ensure the financial records and tax return tell the same story.
