Yes I am a registered tax preparer (CTEC).
This season I will be monetizing my services by assisting people in the preparation of their federal or state tax returns in California. Besides assisting individuals to prepare their tax returns I will also monetize my skills by fully preparing (and not only assisting) individuals to prepare their federal/state tax returns in California.
The tax returns will be prepared for a fee and hence I will be monetizing by charging fees for my services. I will be charging differently depending on my clients. I will charge a flat fee with additional charges for any additional forms over the standard return. For some clients I will even charge hourly rate that will be based on complexity of the taxes. Lastly I intend to monetize my skills by also working as independent contractor.
