Individual Tax Return Preparation in English and Russian

We prepare and e-file federal and state returns for W-2 employees, 1099 contractors and families with children, and explain every number in plain language. We work with all 50 states. A basic return starts at $200.

What our tax return preparation includes

Federal and state returns

Form 1040 and your state return — for New York, including the NYC resident tax.

Every deduction and credit

We check what you qualify for: Child Tax Credit, child care, education credits.

E-filing

We e-file with the IRS and your state and make sure the return is accepted.

A review of the results

We walk you through the outcome and what to change next year to owe less.

Why it pays to use a tax professional

A mistake on a return costs more than preparing it right: a smaller refund, an IRS letter or a penalty.

Keep your full refund

Child and education credits are often left unclaimed on returns filed through free software without a review.

Fewer IRS letters

We cross-check every income form and prior-year data before filing, so mismatches are caught by us, not the IRS.

Complex situations, handled

Investments, crypto, rental income and foreign income all go on the same return at listed prices.

Past years can be fixed

Missed a year or made a mistake? We prepare prior-year returns and amended returns (Form 1040-X).

Tax return FAQ

How much does it cost to prepare Form 1040?

A basic return with one state and up to three W-2s is $200; with children, $300. Extra forms and states are added at listed prices, and we confirm the exact price after reviewing your documents.

What if I can't file by April 15?

You can file an extension (Form 4868) for $50. It moves the filing deadline to October 15 but not the payment deadline: any tax you expect to owe should be estimated and paid by April 15.

Can you file returns for past years?

Yes. We get your IRS transcripts and prepare a return for each missed year — at list price plus $50 per year.

Will you review a return I prepared myself?

Yes, for free. If we find errors, we'll prepare an amended return at listed prices.

Do you work with clients in other states?

Yes, with all 50 states remotely: documents through a secure portal, calls by video, phone or messenger.
