Why an Enrolled Agent for your taxes?

Need a CPA for your taxes? You may want an Enrolled Agent instead. For tax work, an Enrolled Agent has the same unlimited rights before the IRS as a CPA, and the credential is all about tax. Personal and Business Tax Care are led by an Enrolled Agent, with Access included and the price confirmed before you enroll. Always Accounted is not a CPA firm.

Pricing questions

No mystery charges.

Do I need Access before buying a professional service?

Yes. Individual professional services are available to active Access members. Ongoing bookkeeping and tax packages include Access in the displayed price.

Will an ongoing package add another $9.99 charge?

No. When a package says Access included, the displayed monthly price already covers membership. Existing members are not charged twice.

What happens after a one-time service or package ends?

One-time work drops off after completion and Access continues at $9.99 a month. To end a bookkeeping package but keep your membership, switch your plan to Access in Billing; the $9.99 price starts at your next renewal. Cancelling ends the package and the Access included in it at the end of the paid period.

Which services can I purchase immediately?

Access, a member consultation and bookkeeping packages can go directly to secure checkout. New consultation customers add Access at checkout. Tax returns and hourly services begin with intake.

What happens when bookkeeping takes longer than my package?

Additional time is measured at $43.75 per 15 minutes. The team asks for your approval before adding it.

Can unused bookkeeping time roll over?

No. Included hours are for that billing month and do not roll over. If a month needs less time, the price is unchanged; if it needs more, additional time is only added after you approve it.

Are government filing fees included?

No. State, city, registration and third-party fees are separate and shown when the filing scope is confirmed.

Do you run payroll?

No. Payroll is not offered. Bookkeeping packages work around your payroll provider, and business tax scopes take payroll into account when the return is priced.

Is billing monthly? Is there a trial or an annual option?

Monthly only, billed in advance, with no minimum term, annual option or free trial. You can cancel in the secure billing area of your portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current paid billing period.

How do I stop all charges?

Open the secure billing area from your portal and cancel your subscription. If you have a package, check your billing page before leaving so you know whether Access will continue at $9.99 a month. To stop all recurring charges, cancel the remaining subscription too. You can also email info@alwaysaccounted.com for help.
