By now you have probably gotten used to the provisions in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) that became effective January 1, 2018. Don’t forget, most of the tax changes made by the TCJA are not permanent and will expire after 2025. This will have an impact on long range tax planning and will result in a mixed bag of tax increases and tax cuts. How it will impact individual taxpayers will depend upon which provisions of TCJA affect them.

When I had the idea to open a specialty bookstore, I knew I would need some help on the accounting side. Charles, Leslie and Kristine filled that gap and more, and helped make my dream a reality. They are diligent, responsive, and knowledgable. From managing our payroll and taxes to answering small questions I have about donations or pay rates, they have been with me from my first steps to opening to now, about two years in business. With their help, I can focus my energy on what I am best at and most passionate about. I highly recommend Tzinberg & Associates and thank you to them for all their hard work and dedication.
