An Enrolled Agent on your side
Igor Gomes is an Enrolled Agent, authorized to represent you before the IRS in audits, collections and appeals.
Igor Gomes, our Vision Officer, is an Enrolled Agent (EA) with an active license.
An Enrolled Agent is a tax professional authorized by the United States Department of the Treasury to represent taxpayers before the IRS. That authorization covers the different stages of the tax process, including audits, collections and appeals.
Enrolled Agents must also keep their tax education continuously up to date, by meeting annual professional education requirements.
When your life changes, when your business grows, or when a new decision brings tax consequences, you need more than basic software to prepare your taxes. You need someone who knows you, your business and the rules that apply to your situation.
That is where experience, knowledge and relationship make all the difference.
What an Enrolled Agent can do for you
- Answer an IRS or state notice
- Most letters have a deadline. We read it, explain it and respond for you.
- Represent you in an audit
- You do not have to face the examiner alone. In most cases you do not have to be present.
- Resolve a tax debt
- Payment plans, requests for penalty relief and, when it applies, an offer to settle the debt.
- Appeal a decision
- When the result from the IRS is wrong, we take your case to the Office of Appeals.
- File the years you missed
- We get your income records from the IRS, prepare the missing years and bring you back into compliance.
Questions we hear
I got a letter from the IRS. What do I do?
Don’t ignore it, and don’t pay before we review it. Bring it or upload it to the portal. Igor Gomes, our Enrolled Agent, can respond to the IRS on your behalf.
I haven’t filed my tax returns for a few years. Can you help?
Yes. We get your income records from the IRS, prepare the missing years and help you set up a payment plan if you owe. The sooner you start, the fewer penalties you pay.
What does an extension do?
An extension (Form 4868) gives you six more months to file. It does not give you more time to pay. If you expect to owe, pay an estimate by the April deadline to limit penalties and interest.
