Tax Preparation Services in Allston, Massachusetts

April 15th is Closer Than You Think

Tax time is coming. At the moment is seems like a long way away, but if you are anything like me you keep thinking about how much time you still have before you have to file and then suddenly you’re waiting in the long, painful line at the post office on April 15th with all the other procrastinators. How did we get here?

This year, let’s just try things a little bit differently. When all those W-2 forms and annual bank statements and stock reports are all collected, let’s gather it all up and make an appointment with our friendly neighborhood tax man. He files taxes for a living, he won’t pull his hair out and gnash his teeth. He might even look happy to see that grocery bag full of scraps of paper, receipts, tax booklets, and the like. There will be no filing of extensions this year, and if all goes according to plan, there might be some deductions coming to you that you had not considered. If you struggle with the ins and outs of the United States or Massachusetts tax laws, the professional tax preparer’s fee could pay for itself with the money you’ll get back, or in the worse case scenario, in a reduction of the amount of tax you owe.

If you live in or near Allston, a neighborhood of the city of Boston, there are four certified tax preparation services in your area. Let’s give one a call and get all of our i’s dotted and our t’s crossed before the Internal Revenue Service begins breathing down our necks. The nice folks in the post office line will just have to be a few bodies short this year.

Despite their somewhat confusing name, All Checks Cashed is not just a check cashing and cash advance business, they are also a tax preparation service. All Checks Cashed is located at 140 Harvard Avenue, Allston, MA 02134. Their telephone number is (617) 783-2030. Just past the intersection of North Beacon Street and Harvard Avenue, All Checks Cashed is located on the stretch of Harvard between the Blanchard’s Liquors and the Chicago Pizzaria Uno.
