Are Your S Corporation Records Ready?

The $650 starting fee assumes the corporation's financial, payroll and shareholder records are sufficiently organized to prepare the tax return.

Bookkeeping, cleanup, financial-record reconstruction, shareholder basis reconstruction, payroll corrections or other substantial reconstruction work is not automatically included.

If additional work is required, we'll identify the additional scope and applicable fee before proceeding with that work.

Call To Action

Additional Complexity May Change the Preparation Fee

The $650 starting price applies to a standard current-year Form 1120-S with up to two shareholders and up to two Schedules K-1.

Additional shareholders, multiple states, ownership changes, shareholder basis issues, incomplete records, payroll issues, significant depreciation, foreign activity or other complexity may require additional pricing.

Any additional scope and fee will be identified before that additional work proceeds.

Important: Your Tax Deadlines Still Apply

Purchasing tax preparation services, completing the intake or providing documents does not extend or suspend federal or state filing, payment or other tax deadlines.

If the corporation has an approaching deadline or has received a tax notice, notify Tax Control Group™ promptly.

Protect Your Sensitive Information

Your tax return and supporting documents may contain Social Security numbers, financial information and other sensitive taxpayer data.

Provide these documents only through the designated secure client portal. Do not send them through ordinary email.

What Happens After You Provide Your Documents?

1 — Document Review

We'll review the corporate, financial, payroll and shareholder information provided and determine whether additional information is needed.

2 — RETURN PREPARATION

Once the necessary information and applicable scope are confirmed, the Form 1120-S and applicable Schedules K-1 move into preparation.

3 — REVIEW, DOCUSIGN & FILING

When preparation is complete, the return will be reviewed and the appropriate authorized person will receive a DocuSign for required signatures before filing.

What If We Need Something Else?

If additional information or documentation is needed while preparing your return, Tax Control Group™ will contact you with the specific items required.

Use the client portal whenever requested information contains sensitive taxpayer or financial information.
