B&H prepares federal and California tax returns for Willow Glen small businesses and individuals — sole proprietors on Lincoln Avenue, self-employed creatives, freelancers, and anyone with more complexity than a W-2.
Willow Glen has a large population of self-employed residents — consultants, designers, personal trainers, caterers, photographers, and boutique owners. We understand the deductions, the self-employment tax, and California's rules that matter to you.
We prepare your federal and California returns at the same time. California has its own rules around LLC fees, franchise minimums, and pass-through income — we handle both accurately without separate engagements.
Home office, vehicle mileage, equipment, professional subscriptions, marketing, and more. We review every business expense category to make sure you're claiming everything you're entitled to — not just the obvious items.
Missing estimated tax payments triggers IRS and FTB penalties. We calculate your quarterly payments based on actual projected income and remind you before each due date — April 15, June 15, September 15, January 15.
Tax questions don't only arise in April. As a B&H client you can call Bill or Hannah any time you have a tax question — no separate charges for a five-minute phone call.
Federal Schedule C and California Schedule CA for self-employed individuals — home office, vehicle, equipment deductions, and self-employment tax calculated accurately.
Single-member LLCs (disregarded entities) and multi-member LLCs (partnerships). We prepare Form 568 for California and advise on the LLC fee structure at each income tier.
Federal Form 1120-S and California Form 100S for S-corporations. We handle reasonable compensation analysis, shareholder basis tracking, and K-1 preparation for each shareholder.
Form 1040 for Willow Glen residents with W-2 income, investment income, rental income, or self-employment income. We file both federal and California returns together.
We calculate Q1–Q4 estimated payments based on your projected annual income and send reminders before each due date — protecting you from underpayment penalties.
Behind on past returns? We prepare and file delinquent federal and California returns for prior years — and help you understand your options if you owe back taxes.
Yes. B&H prepares federal and California tax returns for Willow Glen sole proprietors, LLCs, S-corps, and partnerships. We also prepare individual returns for Willow Glen residents with self-employment income, rental properties, or complex financial situations.
Common missed deductions include home office, vehicle mileage for business driving, professional subscriptions and software, marketing and advertising, bank and merchant processing fees, and professional development. We review all deductible expense categories — not just the obvious ones.
Self-employed individuals owe estimated taxes four times a year — April 15, June 15, September 15, and January 15. Missing these payments triggers IRS underpayment penalties. We calculate your estimated payments and remind you before each due date.
Yes. We prepare both federal and California returns together — Schedule C for sole proprietors, Form 568 for single-member LLCs, Form 100S for S-corps. California's franchise minimum tax, LLC fees, and pass-through income rules are all handled accurately.
Need more time to file your 2026 return? We file Form 4868 (individuals) or Form 7004 (businesses) to extend your filing deadline to October 15. Remember: an extension extends time to file, not time to pay.
