Certified Specialist in Estate Planning (CSEP)

The need for professional estate planning continues to grow at an amazing pace. Because CPAs as financial professionals are intimately involved in their client's personal financial affairs, they can authoritatively advise clients on estate planning matters.

As such, they are uniquely positioned to capitalize on the growth and expansion taking place in the area of estate planning, thereby creating alternative sources of revenue.

Local QuickBooks Help

Certified QuickBooks experts known as ProAdvisors are typically CPAs, accountants, small business advisors or consultants who have been tested and certified on QuickBooks.

Certified ProAdvisors help businesses customize QuickBooks for their unique needs and help them get the most out of the software. ProAdvisors are also a great resource if you run into trouble with QuickBooks. ProAdvisor fees are typically reasonable and many businesses feel the investment is valuable.

Who are Certified ProAdvisors and why should I consult with one?

  • They're experts in helping small businesses learn, use, and customize QuickBooks
  • They're certified by Intuit
  • Many are accounting and tax experts
  • Many businesses are even more satisfied with QuickBooks after working with a Certified QuickBooks ProAdvisor, and feel they are a valuable investment.

TREASURE IN TAXES (T'NT)

Discover the potential hidden treasure locked in your tax return, and past
tax returns.  Let me unlock it in LEGAL ways.

Here are some examples of tax savings for clients:

.        $80,000 (approximately) Rehabilitation Tax Credit, including
interest income received on the amended return refund.  This tax credit was
split between 3 partners due to the availability of the credit for a
Downtown Danville building rehabilitation project, and was spread over a few
years, due to limitations of the Alternative Minimum Tax.

.        $60,000 to $80,000 tax savings due to a 01/01/2001 deemed sale tax
election available under the Internal Revenue Code of a depreciable business
building.  This deemed sale allowed a step up in basis, resulting in larger
depreciation deductions on the business building.

.        $$$$ ($5000 to $7000 expected)  tax savings on amended return due to
special treatment of coal royalties.  Prior tax preparer treated the
royalties as ordinary income on Form 1040, Schedule E. (see separate
information on Coal Royalties special tax treatment.

.        $$$$ tax savings on amended return of a relative of the above coal
client, due to special treatment of coal royalties.  A DIFFERENT tax
preparer treated the royalties as ordinary income on Form 1040, Schedule E.

.        $10,000 to $15,000 tax savings on returns to a widow whose husband
passed away.

.        $$$ tax savings on benefits from a business downturn.

.        $$$ tax savings and refund on an amended return due to a Net
Operating Loss "NOL" carryback after business went out of business.  Tax
payer self prepared the return, and wasn't aware of the inherent benefit in
the business loss.

I don't offer gimmicks to get your business.  I don't offer free sweepstakes
for drawings for exotic vacations, as one large tax preparation service
offers.  I do offer the services of myself, a seasoned 1980 graduate of the
University of Illinois' College of Commerce and Business Administration.  I
graduated in 1980 with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting, and have since
earned the Certified Specialist in Estate Planning.

I don't believe there are going to be disappearing professional tax preparers,
as another Tax Preparer's software manufacturer suggests.  While many people
with simple returns may find do-it-yourself software works for them, no software
program can replace the benefits of a tax professional who knows you and your
business.  It is my goal, as a seasoned Tax Professional, to get to personally
know you, your situation, and take advantage, in every LEGAL way, to
minimize the taxes you pay.  There are several examples above, where I've
basically saved the taxpayer so much in taxes, that for many of them,
I've paid for my fees, and a few of them for the rest of the client's lives.

SIMILAR RESULTS MAY BE HIDDEN IN YOUR TAX RETURN.
