Hire Offshore Tax Preparation Experts

Our Tax Preparation & Compliance candidates complete hands-on bookkeeping exercises: bank reconciliation, journal entries, month-end close procedures, and financial statement preparation covering Individual Tax Returns, Corporate Tax Filing, Sales Tax Management. We test accuracy under time pressure and knowledge of GAAP/IFRS standards relevant to your jurisdiction. We also verify certifications such as IRS Enrolled Agent (EA) and Certified Public Accountant (CPA). We separately assess communication skills — your bookkeeper needs to explain variances to management, not just record transactions.

Our Tax Preparation & Compliance accountants work schedules aligned with your business hours — typically 4-6 hours of overlap for daily communication and end-of-day handoffs. For month-end close or tax season, we offer extended overlap hours. We use Drake Tax, Lacerte, ProConnect Tax for asynchronous collaboration and handoffs. This setup means your bookkeeper processes transactions during their day, you review financials during your morning, and questions get answered within the same business day.

Every Tax Preparation & Compliance engagement includes a comprehensive NDA, data processing agreement, and access control policy. Your financial data stays in your systems — our accountants access Tax Preparation & Compliance through your credentials with role-based permissions. Access to Drake Tax, Lacerte, ProConnect Tax and other client systems is managed through role-based permissions. We support VPN requirements, IP whitelisting, and audit logging. For sensitive financial data, we can implement additional controls including screen recording restrictions and USB-disabled workstations.

If your Tax Preparation & Compliance accountant isn't the right fit, we provide a free replacement with proven expertise in Individual Tax Returns, Corporate Tax Filing, Sales Tax Management within the guarantee period. The transition includes a structured handover: open reconciliation items, in-progress reports, and pending tasks are documented and transferred. The replacement will be pre-screened for experience in Corporate Tax Filing, International Tax Compliance, Tax Provision & Planning. We typically complete accounting role transitions within 3-5 business days to minimize disruption to your financial operations.

Accounting onboarding includes system access setup, chart of accounts review, and process documentation walkthrough. Most accountants are independently handling daily bookkeeping within the first week and complete their first month-end close by day 30.

Our Tax Preparation & Compliance engagements come in three models: (1) Part-Time Bookkeeper — 10-20 hrs/week for transaction processing and monthly reconciliation. (2) Dedicated Accountant — full-time bookkeeping, reporting, and financial management covering areas like Corporate Tax Filing, International Tax Compliance, Tax Provision & Planning. (3) Finance Team — a managed pod with bookkeeper, accountant, and controller oversight for companies needing full back-office finance. You can upgrade between tiers as your business grows.

Monthly rates for Tax Preparation & Compliance accountants include: dedicated bookkeeping/accounting time, software license management (if applicable), HR and infrastructure, quality review processes, and our managed services layer. Rates vary by complexity — basic bookkeeping costs less than full-cycle accounting with multi-entity consolidation. Rate differences also reflect certification depth — IRS Enrolled Agent (EA) and Certified Public Accountant (CPA) certified accountants may be priced at the higher end. All engagements include backup coverage to ensure continuity during leave or holidays.

Yes. Our Tax Preparation & Compliance accountants hold certifications including IRS Enrolled Agent (EA), Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Certified Tax Preparer, Annual Filing Season Program (AFSP). We verify certifications directly and ensure they're current. However, we weight hands-on experience alongside certifications — a certified Tax Preparation & Compliance aeveloper with production ships is more valuable than credentials alone.
