Most tax preparation appointments take between 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on how complex your return is or how many questions you have.
How far in advance should I schedule my appointment? +
During peak tax season (February-April), we recommend booking 1-2 weeks in advance to minimize your wait time. In off-season, you can walk in or schedule your appointment within a few days.
How much does preparing my taxes cost? +
We charge by form, not a flat fee, because every tax return is different. A simple W-2 return will cost less than one with multiple jobs, dependents, self-employment, or investments. We are happy to provide a free estimate before you move forward so there are no surprises.
How quickly can I get my refund? +
We offer a special $50 cash bonus for clients receiving a refund. E-filed returns with direct deposit typically process within 21 days, while paper returns take 6-8 weeks.
What happens if I get audited? Will I get support? +
Yes, ATAX offers audit support – contact your local ATAX office for more information.
Can I do my small business taxes at ATAX as well? +
Yes, ATAX offers tax preparation support for small businesses as well as personal tax prep.
Can you amend a return I filed myself? +
Yes, we can file amended returns to correct errors or claim missed deductions.
What happens if I can't file by the deadline? +
ATAX can help you file extensions, work out payment schedules for late filing fees, and answer any questions you have through the filing process.
