Case Study - IRS PROBLEM RESOLUTION
If you're in trouble with the IRS, don't ignore them! Get the professional help you need to resolve the issue and reach a settlement or payment agreement that is fair to both you and the IRS. Maybe our client Joan said it best...
Dear John,
I have to write to you because I am so grateful to you for the tax work you did at my request, for a family member.
Several years ago I volunteered to help take care of a family member who had been diagnosed with an acute and terminal illness.
Shortly after taking on this responsibility it because clear that this individual had not been managing well for some time both physically and financially.
I realized that they had not filed their taxes for several years after a lifetime of hard work and financial responsibility.
I contacted the State Dept of Revenue and the IRS and was overwhelmed by the amount of money that was owed because of late fees and penalties. I didn't know what to do and I didn't know where to turn.
Thankfully another family recommended that I contact you.
You worked tirelessly with the IRS and the Revenue Dept. Your knowledge and expertise saved this person from losing their home and their income. Your efforts have allowed them to live out the end of their life with dignity. I can never adequately thank you for for all you have done; you are a miracle worker.
Your work saved the financial portion of this person's life and turned what I thought was a hopeless situation into a positive experience. I learned from this that no matter how dire a situation may seem that with the assistance of the correct professional that a successful resolution can be reached.
Also you charged a very reasonable fee which was only a fraction of what a Tax Attorney would have billed me. I recommend you to everyone because I know first hand that you excel at what you do. I truly appreciate your help.
Sincerely,
Joan P.

Myth-Filing for Tax Extensions Increases Audit Chances
Does the IRS become suspicious when you ask for more time to file your taxes? Absolutely not. Businesses have hundreds of legitimate reasons why they can't meet the April 15th deadline. Filing for an extension shows that employers are committed to filing their taxes accurately, which actually decreases the chances of an audit.
The truth is that over 10 million businesses and taxpayers are granted six-month filing extensions every year. This actually helps the IRS during the peak season and there is absolutely no evidence of late filers being audited more often. This myth is 100% busted.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I just do my own taxes?
Federal and Massachusetts income taxes are complicated. You're great at what you do (or did) for work, but you probably don't have time to stay on top of the ever- changing World of Federal and State taxes and take advantage of all the credits and deductions that a tax professional has learned about from preparing thousands of returns over many decades in business.
Why don't I just call one of the "BIG CHAIN" tax firms
The ads on TV make it look so easy, right? The truth is that if you have any complicating factors at all, you'll be charged far more than the ads suggest... and certainly much more than you would pay to Canton Tax Group.
Most important, of course, is the fact that we are a local, professional firm with a solid commitment to our clients and to the entire community and we have a great reputation for competence and fairness that is so important to us.
What will it cost and how can I make an appointment?
We can usually give you a very reasonable estimate over the phone once we have an idea of your tax situation. Just contact us by calling number:
