Do I need to have my business formed before I schedule a consultation?

No. Many of our clients come to us before they have formed an entity. We can help you decide whether an LLC, S-corp, or sole proprietorship fits your situation and walk you through the formation process step by step.

I already have an accountant and an insurance agent. Can I still work with you?

Absolutely. We frequently work alongside existing professionals. Our role is to coordinate the pieces—making sure your tax, business, and insurance decisions fit together rather than operating in isolation.

What languages do you offer services in?

We provide services in English, Haitian Kreyòl, and French. Our intake process and consultations can be conducted in your preferred language.

Are you a CPA firm or a law firm?

No. Tanis Business, Tax & Insurance Solutions is an advisory firm. We do not imply CPA, attorney, enrolled agent, or investment-adviser credentials unless separately verified. For matters requiring licensed professional services, we can coordinate with qualified professionals.

Do you file extensions?

Yes. If you cannot meet the filing deadline, we can file an extension which gives you more time to file your return. However, an extension does not extend the time to pay any tax you owe—estimated payments should be made by the original deadline to avoid penalties.

Can you help with an IRS notice I received?

Yes. We review the notice with you, explain what the IRS is proposing, help determine whether the change is correct, and assist with drafting a response or setting up a payment arrangement if needed. Bring the notice to your consultation.

Do you prepare prior-year returns?

Yes. We prepare prior-year federal and state returns for individuals and businesses. If you have unfiled returns, we can help you get current and minimize penalties. The sooner you address unfiled returns, the better the outcome tends to be.

What's the difference between tax preparation and tax planning?

Tax preparation is filing your return after the year is over. Tax planning is proactive—strategizing before the year ends to legally minimize your tax liability. Planning can include entity structure review, retirement contributions, timing of income and expenses, and deduction optimization.
