FAQs

Get answers to your most pressing tax-related questions right here.

How long will my appointment take?

Most tax preparation appointments take between 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on how complex your return is or how many questions you have.

How far in advance should I schedule my appointment?

During peak tax season (February-April), we recommend booking 1-2 weeks in advance to minimize your wait time. In off off-season, you can walk in or schedule your appointment within a few days.

How much does preparing my taxes cost?

We offer transparent, fair pricing to ensure you can get expert tax advice from a local team. Our returns start at $49 for simple returns and can go up to $149 depending on complexity.

How quickly can I get my refund?

We offer a special $50 cash bonus for clients receiving a refund. E-filed returns with direct deposit typically process within 21 days, while paper returns take 6-8 weeks.

What happens if I get audited? Will I get support?

Yes, ATAX offers audit support – contact your local ATAX office for more information.

 

Can I do my small business taxes at ATAX as well?

Yes, ATAX offers tax preparation support for small businesses as well as personal tax prep.

 

Can you amend a return I filed myself?

Yes, we can file amended returns to correct errors or claim missed deductions.

 

What happens if I can't file by the deadline?

ATAX can help you file extensions, work out payment schedules for late filing fees, and answer any questions you have through the filing process.

 

I don't have a Social Security Number – can I still file taxes?

Yes, we can help you apply for an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), which allows you to file taxes without an SSN. The process typically takes 6-10 weeks, and you can file your tax return simultaneously with your ITIN application.

 

What if I don't have all the required documents?

We can help you obtain missing wage statements and work with the documentation you have.

 

Will filing taxes affect my immigration status?

Filing taxes demonstrates compliance with U.S. law and can be beneficial for future immigration applications.

 

Do you have Spanish-speaking preparers?

Yes, we have certified bilingual staff who can explain everything in Spanish and help you understand your tax situation.

 

My spouse/child has an SSN, but I only have an ITIN – how do we file?

Your family can still file jointly using both SSN and ITIN, though you’ll need to file a paper return. All qualifying children can potentially be claimed for tax credits, regardless of where they were born, as long as they have valid tax ID numbers.

 

Do I need to report income from my home country?

Generally, you only report U.S. income, but we can help determine what needs to be included.
