Tax Preparation

Tax season can feel overwhelming — whether you're sorting through a stack of W-2s and 1099s, trying to figure out deductions for your side hustle, or wondering if your small business is structured the right way for maximum savings. The rules change every year, the forms keep multiplying, and a single mistake can cost you thousands in missed refunds or trigger an IRS notice you never wanted to open.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does tax preparation cost at Elite Pro-Tax?

Pricing depends on the complexity of your return. A straightforward individual return will cost less than a multi-entity business filing with several states. We offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees, and we're happy to provide an estimate during your free consultation.

Can you help me if I haven't filed taxes in several years?

Absolutely. We regularly help clients catch up on prior-year and back tax filings. We'll work with you to gather the necessary documents, prepare each return, and get you back in good standing with the IRS and state tax agencies.

Do I need to come to your Greenville office in person?

Not at all. While we love meeting clients face-to-face, many of our clients work with us entirely online. You can upload documents through our secure TaxDome portal, schedule a video call, and have your return prepared without ever leaving home. We serve clients in Greer, Spartanburg, Simpsonville, Anderson, Easley, and in 44 of the 50 states this way.

What documents do I need to bring for tax preparation?

For most individual returns, you'll need your W-2s, 1099s (freelance income, interest, dividends, retirement distributions), photo ID, Social Security cards for dependents, last year's tax return, and records of any deductions such as mortgage interest, charitable donations, or business expenses. We provide a personalized checklist when you book your appointment.

Are you available outside of tax season?

Yes — that's one of the things that sets us apart. Elite Pro-Tax is open year-round. Whether you need tax planning advice in the summer, help responding to an IRS notice in the fall, or want to get a head start on next year's strategy, we're always just a phone call away.

What financial statements does my business need?

Every business needs three core financial statements: (1) Profit & Loss Statement (P&L) — shows revenue minus expenses, (2) Balance Sheet — shows assets, liabilities, and equity, (3) Cash Flow Statement — shows money moving in and out. Lenders, investors, and the IRS all require these. Our bookkeeping services produce accurate financial statements monthly. Learn more about our services.

Not the question you had? The full tax FAQ covers more ground, and our client reviews say what the work is actually like.

What tax preparation with us actually involves

Every return is prepared by a person, reviewed before filing, and e-filed once you have seen it and approved it. You are told what the return says before it is submitted, not after.

  • Federal and South Carolina returns prepared together, so the two agree
  • Individual, joint, and business returns — including pass-through income on your personal return
  • Self-employment and 1099 income, with the deductions that go with it
  • Rental property, investment income and multi-state filings
  • Prior-year returns and amendments where something was missed
  • Secure document exchange through our client portal, not email
  • Available year-round, not only between January and April

Not sure what to bring? Our tax preparation checklist lists the documents worth gathering before your appointment — bringing a complete set is the difference between one meeting and three.

If a previous return needs correcting, that is an amended return. If returns are outstanding for earlier years, start with back tax filing instead — filing is the entry requirement for almost everything else.

What tax preparation costs

The honest answer is that it depends on what is in your return — a single W-2 is not a multi-state return with rental income and a Schedule C. But "it depends" is not much use when you are deciding whether to call, so here is the shape of it.

Across the profession, a straightforward individual return typically runs $200–$400. Self-employed and business returns generally range from $500–$1,500+. Those are the going rates for professional preparation rather than a quote from us: what your return costs depends on what it contains, and you get a figure before any work starts, during the free consultation.

One thing worth knowing whoever you use: a fee set as a percentage of your refund is a warning sign, because it gives the preparer a stake in how aggressive your return is. Complexity is the right basis for a fee. Our nine questions to ask before hiring a tax preparer covers what else to check before you hand over your documents.

Where we can file your return

The office is in Easley, but almost none of this work needs you in the room. We prepare and e-file returns in 44 of the 50 states — documents through the portal, the consultation by video, the return e-filed once you have approved it.

The 6 we cannot currently file in: California, Connecticut, Maryland, Nevada, New York, Oregon.

Each of these states licenses or registers tax preparers on its own terms, separately from the IRS, and we are not currently registered in them.

Everywhere else — all 44 of the other 50 states — we can prepare and e-file your return without you setting foot in the office. If you are not sure where you stand, or you moved part-way through the year and have two states to think about, ask us before you file.

Tax preparation in Greenville and Easley

Returns are prepared in our Easley office for individuals, families and business owners across Greenville, Pickens and Anderson counties. Come in, or handle the whole thing through the portal and a video call.
