The EA desk · for firms

Hand us the returns. Keep the client.

Our IRS-licensed enrolled agents prepare and file returns on the same platform we sell. You stay the firm of record; we are the desk behind you.

§ Choose your depth

As deep as you want us.

White-label

White-label.

We prepare under your brand and EFIN. Your client never sees TaxSQR — we are your silent back office.

Overflow

Overflow.

Send us the returns you cannot fit in season. Priced per return, no commitment, no minimum.

Co-source

Co-source.

We become your named desk for a category — e.g. all expat returns — as an ongoing partnership.

§ What the desk does

Three things, done right.

2555 · 1116 · FBAR · 8938

Expat returns

Form 1040 with FEIE, foreign tax credits, FBAR (FinCEN 114), Form 8938 (FATCA), and Streamlined Filing procedures.

1040 · 1120-S · 1065

Domestic returns

Individuals, S-corps, partnerships, and C-corps, with state filings for all fifty plus DC and K-1 reconciliation.

QBO · Xero · Monthly

Bookkeeping

Monthly close on QuickBooks Online or Xero — reconciliations, P&L and balance sheet, and trailing-twelve clean-up. Hand-off straight to the tax desk.

§ Ways of working

Visible work, not a black box.

A co-sourced return moves through the same stages your own team would use — intake, prep, review, e-file — on the same immutable audit log. You watch it happen; the client only ever sees your firm.

Not sure which depth fits? Our guides walk through when to outsource and how a season runs.

§ Firm / wholesale pricing

Priced for firms, not the public.

Per-return rate cards by complexity, volume tiers for co-source engagements, and monthly retainers for bookkeeping. Every return runs on TaxSQR, so you watch it move in the same audit log you would get with the software.

Per-return rates.
