Why should I use a professional tax service? +
Professional tax services save time, reduce errors, and help you maximize deductions and refunds while staying compliant with IRS and state tax regulations.
How early should I prepare my taxes? +
It's best to begin tax preparation early in the year to gather documents, avoid last-minute stress, and ensure accurate filing before deadlines.
Do I need to make quarterly estimated tax payments? +
If you're a freelancer or self-employed and expect to owe at least $1,000 in taxes for the year, the IRS typically requires quarterly payments.
Does Washington have a state income tax? +
No — Washington does not tax individual income, but businesses may owe B&O and sales tax.
If I file an extension, do I still have to pay taxes by April 15? +
Yes. An extension only moves the filing deadline, not the payment deadline. Any tax owed must still be paid by April 15 to avoid interest and penalties.
What happens if I miss an IRS deadline? +
You may be charged penalties and interest. Filing as soon as possible reduces additional fees.
What are the quarterly estimated tax payment deadlines? +
April 15 (Q1), June 15 (Q2), September 15 (Q3), and January 15 of the following year (Q4).
