Self-Employed & Schedule C Tax Filing in Richmond
Expert self-employed & schedule c tax filing in Richmond. Licensed, insured, upfront pricing.
Books that are “close enough” cost you the moment a bank, a partner, or a buyer actually looks at them. Our monthly-close practice reconciles every account — bank, credit card, loans — categorizes every transaction correctly the first time, and delivers finished statements by the 10th of the following month, every month, without you having to ask. If your books arrived in worse shape than that, catch-up is a standing part of the practice: we reconstruct however many months or years it takes and set up a close calendar so it never happens again.

Questions of Record
Questions about self-employed & schedule c tax filing
Straight answers before you book — the same answers we'd give in a consultation.
Can you fix several years of messy or unfiled books?
Yes — cleanup and catch-up work is a standing part of the practice. We reconstruct the books, amend or file the missing returns, and set up a monthly close so it never piles up again. Cleanup is quoted as its own fixed fee, so the past doesn’t inflate your ongoing rate.
How much will my taxes or bookkeeping actually cost?
You’ll know before we start. After a free consultation and a look at your records, we quote a fixed fee in writing — individual returns from , business returns from , monthly bookkeeping from . The engagement letter you sign is the invoice you receive; there is no hourly meter.
Who actually does the work on my account?
A licensed CPA or enrolled agent prepares and a second one reviews — on every return, close, and report. You’re assigned one partner as your point of contact, and that person stays with your account year over year.
