Customer Reviews

They work diligently for your money, displaying professionalism in their work. The only noticeable setback I personally experienced was a lack of responsiveness when reaching out. If you?re seeking an ITIN for someone, kindly ask your US accountant to prepare the resident election letter, as there might be an additional charge for this. Overall, I am very satisfied and would recommend their services.

I have been a customer of Tax Seva for the past 12 years and have been very happy and satisfied with their services. They have adapted very quickly to the technology and embraced to secure online sharing documents sharing. Very professional and thorough. Highly recommended.

Great service !!! They helped me file my tax returns and made the process easy. They have secure vault for sharing documents online. I hope to remain Tax Seva customer for many coming years. Thank you very much for making the process easy.

We have been using Tax Seva for 3 years now and very happy with the quality of their services. Praveen Jain is very knowledgeable in foreign assets and income. Highly recommended.

I have been working Praveen Jain and Seva tax services for over ten years now. With the hectic work and personal life like most others, it is such a pleasure to have someone like Seva watching our back with respect to the taxes. I will vouch for Praveen?s team and their integrity and service to anyone that would be interested in exploring options for tax related services.

I have been using this firm for tax filing since 2014 and found them to be very professional and detail oriented with tax matters.

Tax Seva made our otherwise complex tax situation (family + business, moved out of state during tax year) rather simplified and manageable. Communication and doc sharing was easy and felt safe and secure. We will continue to use Tax Seva.

Extremely unhelpful, refused to meet us in person even though we are very close to their offices. Requested that we share sensitive information and documents through unprotected emails. Emails were only responded to in the middle of the night. The price we were given was raised from the original quote for seemingly no reason.

Praveen and his team have helped me prepare tax returns over the past three years and I would highly recommend their services. They are extremely helpful and have gone out of the way to help me multiple times with the returns.

Praveen Jain completes tax preparation in a timely manner with a focus on accuracy. He asks excellent follow up questions regarding factual accuracy and completes research regarding complicated topics ranging from revenue, small business revenue, retirement, rental property, investments, crypto currency tax, foreign assets, and tax efficient strategy. He has a team that handles large volume of data entry if needed but always addresses me with his direct attention. I have worked with three accountants in the

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications should I look for in a CPA?

Look for a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license, which ensures they’ve passed rigorous exams and meet state requirements. Check for relevant experience in your industry, additional certifications like CFA or CMA, and membership in professional organizations like the AICPA. Verify their credentials through state licensing boards.

How do I find a CPA in my area?

Use online directories like the AICPA, CPAverify, or state CPA societies. Search platforms like Yelp or Google for local CPAs with reviews. Ask for referrals from business associates, friends, or financial advisors. Local chambers of commerce can also provide recommendations.

What’s the difference between a CPA and an accountant?

A CPA is a licensed professional who has passed the CPA exam and met state requirements for education and experience. An accountant may lack this certification and could have varying levels of expertise. For complex tasks like tax audits or financial reporting, a CPA is typically more qualified.

How do I know if a CPA specializes in my needs?

Ask about their experience with your specific financial needs, such as tax preparation, small business accounting, or estate planning. Review their website or LinkedIn for case studies or client testimonials. Inquire about their client base to ensure they handle similar financial situations.

Should I check a CPA’s reviews before hiring?

Yes, reviews provide insight into a CPA’s reliability, communication, and performance. Check platforms like Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau for client feedback. Look for patterns in reviews, but verify their authenticity, as some may be biased or outdated.

How can I verify a CPA’s license?

Visit your state’s Board of Accountancy website or use CPAverify.org to check a CPA’s license status. Confirm their license is active and check for any disciplinary actions or complaints. This ensures they’re in good standing and meet professional standards.

What questions should I ask during a CPA consultation?

Ask about their experience with your financial needs, fee structure, availability, and communication style. Inquire how they handle tax filings, audits, or financial planning. Ask for references or examples of similar work to assess their expertise and fit.

How much should I expect to pay for a CPA’s services?

Fees vary based on location, services, and complexity. Basic tax preparation may cost $150-$500, while business accounting or audits can range from $1,000 to $10,000+. Request a detailed fee structure upfront and compare quotes from multiple CPAs.

Can I work with a CPA remotely?

Yes, many CPAs offer remote services through secure online platforms for document sharing and virtual consultations. Ensure they use encrypted tools for data security. Remote CPAs can be effective if they understand your local tax laws or business regulations.

How do I assess a CPA’s communication skills?

During consultations, evaluate their ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly. Ask sample questions about taxes or financial strategies and note their responsiveness and clarity. Good communication ensures you understand their advice and fosters a productive relationship.

What red flags should I watch for when screening a CPA?

Beware of CPAs who guarantee specific tax refunds, lack a valid license, or have disciplinary actions on record. Avoid those with poor communication, vague fee structures, or negative reviews highlighting unethical behavior. Always verify their credentials independently.

Should I choose a CPA from a large firm or a solo practitioner?

Large firms offer more resources and specialized teams but may charge higher fees. Solo practitioners often provide personalized service and lower costs but may have limited availability. Choose based on your needs, budget, and preference for personalized attention.

How often should I meet with my CPA?

For individuals, annual meetings for tax preparation may suffice. Businesses may need quarterly or monthly check-ins for bookkeeping, tax planning, or financial reporting. Discuss your needs upfront to establish a meeting schedule that aligns with your financial goals.

Can a CPA help with both personal and business finances?

Yes, many CPAs handle both, but confirm their expertise in both areas. Ask about their experience managing personal taxes and business accounting simultaneously. Ensure they can balance both without compromising attention to your specific financial needs.

What should I do if I’m not satisfied with my CPA?

Discuss concerns directly with your CPA to resolve issues. If unresolved, check your contract for termination terms. Seek a new CPA by researching reviews, credentials, and referrals. Request your financial records to ensure a smooth transition to a new professional.
