Well Thousand Oaks, our rite of spring is past.
No, I’m not talking about Cinco De Mayo … rather, the NFL Draft is over, and three precious days of watching paint dry come to an end. Ah, spring.
Yes, I know serious football fans love this stuff (as do the television networks, not coincidentally), but so much oxygen has been consumed based on pure speculation that it’s becoming more and more clear how football-obsessed our culture is.

Ahhh, spring in Thousand Oaks.
When the temps are rising, and the trees don’t seem so desolate … and am I right that the angle of the sun is a bit less harsh?
Or maybe it’s just because tax season has finished and I’m getting more sleep? 🙂 (Team Dubrow CPA probably thinks so!)
Well,

What we liked most about meeting with you was you took your time; you were patient, detailed and made sure everything was done correctly. That is the most important factor for us when choosing a tax preparer.

April 22, 2014Skylar Dubrow, CPAEventsMy wife and I have never had such a positive experience with an accountant before. You are thorough, organized, and very knowledgeable. Our returns are put together very impressively and we appreciate the effort to help us go through the details of our financial year. We refer you to anyone who asks about someone to help with their taxes and will continue to do so.

The dust is truly beginning to settle around here at Thousand Oaks Tax Planning and Preparation Central after our very busy TY2013 tax season (ok, maybe that’s just pollen).
Regardless, here at Team Skylar Dubrow CPA we’re beginning the process of serving you during the “off season” (there are many new things coming, including integration with health insurance regulations,

Part of me can’t believe that I had the time to write this blog considering how busy my last week has been. But, I also know if I don’t write you now, I may not get a chance to do so, with this tax season having been so full, I’m right back to working on extensions.
Although, I’ll admit that I would have loved to take more than a few days break from work,

It’s the final full week of tax season, and our Thousand Oaks tax preparation office is hopping!
I’m still taking the time to step away for a moment and write to you, my friend (if you have all your papers in, and are waiting for our completion — fear not! My team is hard at work, as I type …).

Watching the Olympics the past couple weeks from our Thousand Oaks tax preparation headquarters (well, not while we’re preparing your taxes, of course!), and on the heels of the Super Bowl, we’ve been treated to some pretty great commercials lately, haven’t we? Some of the spots for the Olympics were downright inspiring.
But, of course, we all know that they are made with the express purpose to cause us to purchase.

Preparing a correct and accurate tax return is our priority. We proudly stand behind our work and if a mistake does happen that is our fault, we will immediate correct the mistake and gladly refund your money if requested.
If any penalties or interest are incurred due to our mistake, we will do everything we can to fix the problem and cover any penalties should they arise.
We feel so confident in our processes to account for all deductions and uncover hidden deductions that we guarantee that you will pay the lowest amount of taxes legally possible. We spend a good amount of time correcting and fixing other so called tax pros mistakes and oversights.
We are so committed to giving out clients the best service. We do this by taking thte time to understand our clients situation and asking the right questions to make sure every deduction is accounted for. And remember we work for you, NOT the IRS.
Not only do we prepare an accurate tax return, we will inform you of tax saving strategies and best record keeping practices should we see fit.
Starting January 1, 2017, all our returns come with our “Silver” Stress Free Audit Insurance, FREE with paid tax preparation. Our Silver package includes our full support when handling IRS and State Notices for the 2016 tax year. If you receive a notice, send it to us and we will work with you to organize the required documentation and we will respond to the IRS on your behalf.
“Many tax experts are predicting an increase in IRS audits (because of the system automation), as well as an increase in audits by the state”
Our Gold Package adds our representation for an actual IRS audit for the current year. Whether it be an “audit by mail”, or an actual audit at one of the IRS locations, we will work with you to compile all the necessary documentation and represent you in front of the IRS for no additional charge. Our fees to represent our clients in an audit scenario can range from $1000- $2500 & up depending on time and complexities.
Our Gold option is an optional add on service & not included with regular tax preparation. Gold protection covers the current tax year only regardless of when you get audited.
The IRS and state authorities are behind in auditing tax returns and matching reporting documents to tax returns.They are currently working on 2012 & 2013 years.
Our Platinum level package covers you for a period of 7 years. It Is just like our Gold package, but it includes the currtent year and 6 prior years. We will provide audit coverage for prior years tax returns, even if we did not prepare them.
How is that for taking care of our clients! Once the Platinum level package is purchased, only the gold level will be required in future years as the previous years have been protected by the one time Platinum purchase.
