FACT Professional, Inc. uses a secure method to draft payment for our services from the bank account or credit card provided.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"7\"><li>The tax preparer will electronically file your return. Once the tax return has been accepted by the Federal &amp; State government (if applicable) you will receive a secure encrypted copy of your tax return. If you would like a physical copy as well our office would be happy to send this to your current mailing address.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I have to come into the FACT Professional, Inc. office to file my taxes?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our firm is all about flexibility and saving time. While we always enjoy meeting clients in person, you have the option to book an in-person or a video appointment to review and finalize your income tax return.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does FACT Professional, Inc. file 1040NR (Non-Resident) returns?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The main tax form for those considered residents in the United States is Form 1040.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who do not pass the substantial presence test as residents, our office may recommend filing Form 1040NR instead.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each case can vary, therefore if you are not sure if you should be filing a 1040 or a 1040NR, set up an appointment with one of our tax accountants. They will ask the relevant questions regarding your situation and evaluate which tax form will be prepared.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I send you my tax documents?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our firm aims to be as paperless as possible. Therefore, our clients use Intuit Link, a secure encrypted platform to send their tax documents.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we send you your tax return, we also use an encrypted platform guaranteeing your information is protected.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What states does FACT Professional, Inc. file income tax returns?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our tax professionals have knowledge of filing requirements in all 50 states.

Each situation is specific and FACT Professional Inc. aims to give you the most relevant advice.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What should I do if I cannot pay my taxes?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are having financial challenges paying your current year\u2019s tax returns don\u2019t fret because you have a few different options.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Installment Agreements \u2013 depending on your tax liability you may be eligible for an installment agreement for both your federal and state tax liability. This installment agreement can spread your tax payments over 72 months giving you more time to pay your taxes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><li>Credit Card Tax Payments \u2013 if you have the amount available on your credit card and you don\u2019t want to set up an installment agreement, you can pay the entire tax liability on a credit card. The government does charge an additional percentage for this transaction; however, it may be a good option for some taxpayers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What if I owe past due taxes or tax returns?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some taxpayers have challenges keeping up to date on filing their tax returns and\/or paying their taxes.

This will ensure we have enough time to assess your situation, make a plan, pay estimated taxes, and\/or research alternatives to appropriately mitigate your tax liability.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will FACT Professional, Inc. give recommendations on how to save taxes?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Individual Income tax filing results in different solutions for different taxpayers. Something that works for your neighbor with two kids and a house may not work for you if you are single and your only dependent is your dog. Therefore, when you set up a tax appointment or consultation with us it is helpful to have the right kind of information about your history. The more information you provide the more of an understanding we will have to find different tax mitigation strategies for you. The service fee for filing taxes versus long-term tax planning is considered separate services and your tax accountant may schedule a separate appointment with you to address your questions appropriately.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Filing your individual Income tax return is neither enjoyable nor straightforward.
