CPA/EA Needed: Tax Cleanup + Payment Reconciliation (Missed Auto-Payment)

Posted 2 weeks ago

Only freelancers located in the U.S. may apply.U.S. located freelancers only

Summary

I need an experienced CPA or Enrolled Agent to help me audit and clean up my personal (and potentially my business) tax situation and confirm the status of payments/filings. The issue: A tax payment was supposed to be automatically drafted but no payment occurred, and my prior accountant became unresponsive after multiple follow-ups. I need someone to determine exactly what happened, confirm the current standing with the IRS/state, and resolve any outstanding issues. I will provide the 2025 return my accountant prepared, which he seemingly did not file. There appears to be an extension on the IRS website, but the payment did not go through, so I am unsure what happened. Requirements (must have): *CPA or EA (please specify which) *Proven experience with multi-year cleanup, IRS transcripts, notices, and payment reconciliation *Clear communicator: I need someone who will respond within 24-48 hours Screening questions 1. Are you a CPA or EA, and what state are you licensed in (if CPA)? 2. Have you handled situations where a scheduled tax payment was not drafted? How did you investigate? Open to hourly or fixed. Thank you
