Yes. If you’re not eligible for a Social Security Number, you can still file your federal income tax return using an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number). The IRS issues ITINs to individuals who are required to file a tax return but are not eligible to obtain an SSN. Filing with an ITIN is fully accepted by the IRS and allows you to stay compliant with federal tax laws.

An ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) is a tax processing number issued by the IRS to individuals who are not eligible for a Social Security Number but are required to file a U.S. tax return.
At our office, we assist clients with the full ITIN application or renewal process, including the preparation of Form W-7, supporting documentation, and proper submission to the IRS.

If you’re self-employed, you should gather the following documentation to prepare your tax return:

– Income records (invoices, receipts, 1099-NEC forms, and any proof of cash payments)
– Business expense documentation (receipts, mileage logs, supply purchases, tools, etc.)
– Bank statements (to help verify income and expenses)
– Records of estimated tax payments (Form 1040-ES, if applicable)
– Dependent information, if claiming any (name, SSN or ITIN, and relationship)

Having organized financial records helps ensure accurate reporting and allows you to claim all eligible deductions and credits.

Self-employed individuals can deduct ordinary and necessary business expenses directly related to their trade or profession. Common deductible expenses include:

– Home office expenses (if you use part of your home exclusively for business)
– Vehicle and mileage (for business-related travel)
– Tools, equipment, and supplies
– Marketing and advertising (flyers, business cards, online ads)
– Cell phone and internet (if used for business purposes)
– Professional services (legal, accounting, software subscriptions)
– Business insurance
– Continuing education and training

All deductions are reviewed on a case-by-case basis to ensure they meet IRS guidelines for business use.

If filed online, most business registrations in Connecticut are processed within 2 to 5 business days. Paper filings may take longer.
We handle the entire business formation process, including:

– Business name search and registration
– LLC or Corporation filing with the Secretary of the State
– IRS EIN application

An LLC (Limited Liability Company) is generally simpler to set up and manage. It’s ideal for small businesses and self-employed individuals because it offers flexibility in taxation and fewer formalities.

A Corporation (Corp) is a more complex legal structure, typically used by businesses that plan to issue stock, attract investors, or operate at a larger scale. It involves stricter compliance requirements, such as holding annual meetings and keeping corporate minutes.

Yes. If you are a U.S. tax resident and earn income — even from informal work, cash jobs, or self-employment — you are legally required to report it on your tax return. All income must be declared, regardless of how it’s received.

Yes. Married couples can choose to file Married Filing Jointly, which often results in higher standard deductions and more tax credits.
We always evaluate each case individually to determine whether Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately offers the most benefit.

Failing to file a tax return can lead to serious consequences, including:

– IRS penalties for late filing and late payment
– Accrued interest on unpaid taxes
– Loss of eligibility for tax refunds and credits
– Delays or complications in immigration processes, such as green card or citizenship applications
– Potential IRS enforcement actions, including collection letters, levies, or audits

Staying compliant with federal tax requirements is essential for both financial and legal protection.

Yes! Although we have a physical office, we also assist clients from Florida, New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and other states.
Documents can be sent securely via email or WhatsApp, and we provide the same level of care and professionalism to both local and out-of-state clients.

If you owe taxes, you have two options:
– Pay the full amount by the deadline
– Or request an Installment Agreement with the IRS

We can help you apply for a payment plan, but it’s important to know that the IRS charges interest and late payment penalties on the balance until it is fully paid. The sooner you act, the better — to avoid extra fees and stay in compliance.

No, having a bank account is not required to file your taxes.
However, it’s highly recommended — it allows for faster refunds through direct deposit, helps you track your income and expenses, and makes it easier to stay organized for future filings.

The total cost depends on the type of entity (LLC or Corporation), but we offer complete packages that include:

If you offer recurring cleaning services or other taxable services in Connecticut — such as weekly or biweekly house cleaning — you are required by law to register for a Sales and Use Tax Permit and file Form OS-114.

Most businesses file OS-114 on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the volume of sales.
We help you determine your filing frequency, handle registration, and ensure your Sales Tax filings stay compliant with the Department of Revenue Services (DRS).
