Before entering the data into the tax preparation software, we analyze and double-check the balance sheet, profit & loss statement, and other relevant data received from the client for 3C’s i.e. Correctness, Consistency & Completeness so that the apparent mismatch can be identified and corrected before commencing return preparation process. After satisfying the accuracy of the details received, we login into the client’s system and tax software and then give a treatment of all items into the tax preparation software including deductions, credits, carry forward balances, etc. Lastly, we submit Tax Returns and Computation PDF files to clients for their review with our comments, observation, and queries.
