Welcome to Tax Year 2023
In business since 1947, Kerensky Tax Service has seen many changes and been fortunate to grow in ways that were not imaginable when we first began. We will still be maintaining a couple of options when getting your taxes prepared. I will still be seeing clients face to face with a scheduled one time appointment, while Dan Sipe will be handling all of the drop off services. Dan has been with the firm for the last 8 years and has done a fantastic job preparing the majority of the returns that were dropped off.
The following are the choices that you will have to have your taxes prepared:
A. If you would like to stay with Mike to prepare your taxes you will NEED to schedule an appointment. With this change, I will be expanding my hours for appointments to accommodate the people that would like to stay with me for tax preparation. Appointments will still be either 1/2 hour or 1 hour and the prices will stay the same at $100 and $200 respectively. I will see clients Monday through Thursday from 3:00 P.M. - 9:00 P.M., Saturday from 8:00 A.M. - 4:00 P.M.
B. If you would like to utilize the drop off service with Dan you will need to drop your taxes off between the hours of 9 a.m. and 9 p.m. Monday - Friday. You will sign up for a date to pick up when you drop off by picking a pick up appoint time and date. All drop-off returns will be handled by Dan and all questions should be directed to him. The website for Dan is Kerenskypickup.com
Dan will both prepare the drop-off returns, as well as deliver them, including questions regarding those returns. We would like to make it clear that you always have the option to choose to book an appointment if you feel that there are issues that cannot be handled through drop off. That being said, if you have used the drop off service in the past you will see little to no change in the way you have had your taxes prepared.
Our goal is to offer two services to best meet your needs on any given year. If you are a regular drop-off and a complex issue arises, like buying or selling a rental property, then you can schedule an appointment with Mike to discuss your return in detail. If you have been dropping off in the past and your return is similar to the previous year you will be serviced as you have been by dropping off. Please make sure that you include all the necessary information to process your return and the best number/email for contact. In closing, I would like to say how much of a pleasure it is to serve each client that we have gained over the last 75 years. We promise to maintain the level of service that you have come to expect and look forward to improving in every way.
Here is a quick look to help understand how to book the service that is right for you.
If you would like Mike to prepare your taxes:
You will need to book an appointment and your return will be prepared and returned that day. Prices will be $100 for a 1/2 hour and $200 for a full hour.
If you would like to use the drop off service with Dan:
Drop off any Tuesday or Thursday between 5:00 P.M. - 8:00 P.M. At that time you will sign-up for a time to pick up in about 1 week. Again, Dan will be handling all of the drop-off service from the beginning to the end.

Another additional item to remember is the amount of Advanced Child Tax Credit that you received this year. This amount will have to be accounted for as well as any stimulus for the current year.
All new clients must bring Social Security Numbers and a drivers license for identification
PLEASE REMEMBER, THOSE RECEIVING THE EARNED INCOME CREDIT - I will have to have a copy of the social security card for those that you are claiming the credit for. I will have to keep this on file for three years and will NOT be able to file without it.
