The following work requires unlimited representation rights before the IRS under Treasury Department Circular 230. We maintain referral relationships with select CPA firms and tax attorneys for these cases:
Initial consultation about whether you need this kind of help is free. If you do, we'll connect you with a partner firm and stay involved as your prep contact.

Start the tax organizerAudit support means: providing copies of your prepared return, supporting documents, and answering preparer-side questions if the IRS contacts you about a return we prepared. It does not include representation. For full audit defense, we refer to a credentialed partner (see "What we don't do").
TaxOwl Advisors preparers hold an active Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN) issued by the Internal Revenue Service. We are not Certified Public Accountants, Enrolled Agents, or attorneys. Our representation rights before the IRS are limited per Treasury Department Circular 230. Initial consultations about whether your situation requires credentialed work are free.
Our Privacy Notice describes how we collect, use, store, and protect your tax return information. We obtain your written consent under IRS §7216 before using or disclosing your tax return information for any purpose other than preparing your return.
All client work is governed by a written engagement letter that must be signed before we begin. The engagement letter sets out scope, fees, payment terms, dispute resolution, and termination rights. The flat fee quoted is the price you pay for in-scope work; if scope expands during preparation, we notify you before doing additional work.
Standard turnaround is 7-10 business days after all documents are received. Rush service is not available. All services are priced as listed; situations beyond our standard scope are referred to specialist firms. Payment is due upon receipt of the invoice. Work begins once payment and complete documents are received and the engagement letter is signed.
Full refund if no work has been performed. Fees for work performed in good faith are non-refundable. If you believe our work was deficient, the dispute resolution process in your engagement letter governs.
