Fee Structure
How Much We Charge to Prepare Your Tax Return:

Our goal is to provide you with prompt and accurate tax preparation services for a fair price that covers our costs for doing business and produces a fair profit so that we may remain in business to serve you year after year.



Everyone's situation is different. And fees will vary based on each person's circumstances. Generally, our fees are based on a set fee for each form and schedule needed to prepare an accurate income tax return. On average, clients last year paid about $400 and we expect that the average for all clients in the upcoming year will be close to the same (between $300 and $500), but the fee for a specific client may be higher for more complex returns with increased number of forms. These prices are competitive and in line with those charged by national tax franchises. Additional fees may apply for additional states (beyond the first) and additional forms or storage, mailing, or copying. Base fee includes e-filing.

About Steven Stanganelli CFP®

WHAT WE DO
 
Here at Boston Tax Planners, a service of Clear View Wealth Advisors, we do more than tax preparation. We do tax planning. Traditional tax preparers look in the rear view mirror and record the year that was. We are different. We focus on looking ahead and planning so that you lower your taxes, build wealth and improve your cash flow.

As April 15 approaches, you know you can count on us for a timely, accurate tax return. But sometimes, just filing your return isn’t enough. Sometimes, you need a plan to pay the least you legally can.

Our tax planning service starts with a proactive look at all your income and expenses. Our goal is to ferret out every legal deduction, credit, loophole, and strategy available, before we file your return.

No “red flags.” No “gray areas.” No “aggressive” moves.

Everything is court-tested and IRS-approved.

When we meet to present your completed return, we’ll talk more about how tax planning can leave more in your pocket. In the meantime, if you have any questions, just call 978-388-0020 or 617-398-7494.
