Fees for Tax Returns, Immigration Services and Consulting

Our Fee Philosophy

We do not consider ourselves a tax return preparation company. Our company provides a tax advisory relationship for our clients which frequently includes the preparation of related tax returns. After we have met or spoken to a new client, we determine a "fixed" fee for one year of our services. This fee generally includes any necessary tax returns, as well as related services including meetings, phone calls, emails, printing and mailing costs. There are no "hidden" fees. We believe this philosophy encourages our clients to contact us before problems occur, rather than hesitate because of an unclear fee structure. The feedback from our clients has been overwhelmingly positive regarding this approach.

We are able to offer the same (or higher) level of expertise and service you would receive from the big firms, but at rates that are generally 50% - 75% of the cost of the big firms, or even less in many cases.

A few indicative examples of our fees for one year of service (2010, all prices ex VAT):
