Three services. Done the way US CPA firms expect them done.

Tax Preparation

1040 · 1120 · 1120-S · 1065 · 1041 · Multi-state · Trusts

Returns prepared by US tax-trained accountants — not data entry teams. Workpapers structured for review, not just delivery.

Tax Prep
Bookkeeping

Bookkeeping

QuickBooks · Xero · Sage · NetSuite

Catch-up work, monthly reconciliations, and clean books that hit your desk ready for review. Not "ready to be fixed first."

Accounting & Close

Month-end · Quarter-end · Year-end

GL maintenance, financial reporting support, and close cycles that finish on time — so your partners stop closing books on Sundays.

Month End Close

Four reasons CPA firms stay with us — year after year.

We built TaxicMinds because generic outsourcing models fail when applied to US tax complexity.

01

Led by a registered IRS Enrolled Agent.

TaxicMinds was founded and is led by Hitesh Patel — an Enrolled Agent licensed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury to represent taxpayers before the IRS. Every workflow, every quality standard, every escalation path is built around US tax expertise.

02

Built for review time, not just delivery.

Most back extension teams race the deadline. We work backwards from your reviewer's calendar. Returns hit your desk with enough runway that review becomes review — not damage control.

03

US tax-trained accountants. Not data entry.

Every preparer on our team is trained specifically in US tax — federal and state. They understand basis tracking, K-1 footnotes, and why the 1099-INT doesn't always match the bank statement.

04

Consistent workpaper standards across every return.

Same format. Same notes structure. Same flags for open items. Your reviewer doesn't waste 20 minutes per file figuring out where things are. The 40th return looks like the 1st.

05

Same team. Year over year.

No re-onboarding every quarter. No new faces every January. The accountant who handled your firm's returns last season is the same one handling them this one. The institutional knowledge stays.

What it actually looks like to bring us on. Week by week.

Most providers gloss over the early weeks. Here's the honest timeline.

WEEK 1 — 2

It feels slower than expected.

Onboarding. Workpaper formats to align on. Software access. The first returns come back with more questions than you anticipated.

"You'll think — I could have done this faster myself. Almost every firm has this moment."
WEEK 3 — 4

The rhythm starts.

Returns come back cleaner. Same workpaper format every time. The questions get sharper, more targeted. Less time re-explaining. More time actually reviewing.

WEEK 5 — 6

You stop being copied on every email.

The senior isn't doing prep work anymore. The reviewer finally has room to do the job they were hired to do. Your inbox quiets down.

WEEK 10 — 12

Partners say the same thing.

"I didn't realize how much of my week was going to work that wasn't mine to do."

That's the moment the engagement starts paying back.

Your client data is the most sensitive thing your firm handles. We treat it that way.

Led by a US-licensed Enrolled Agent. Built on US-standard security.

Enrolled Agent Leadership

Hitesh Patel — founder of TaxicMinds — is a registered IRS Enrolled Agent licensed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. EAs are the only federally-licensed tax practitioners who specialize exclusively in taxation. Every standard at TaxicMinds reflects that.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Certified

The international standard for information security management. Audited annually. Not self-claimed.

SOC 2 Type II Aligned Controls

Continuous monitoring of how client data is accessed, stored, and transmitted. Independent audit-ready.

Confidentiality & Access Protocols

Role-based access. Encrypted file transfer. No data leaves controlled environments. Every team member signs binding confidentiality agreements before touching a single return.

From CPA firm partners who stopped looking for a different setup.

"I've worked with three back extension teams over the years. This is the first one where I stopped having to manage the relationship. They just deliver."

"By March 15th, we had two weeks of review runway we'd never had before. That's the difference. Not the cost. Not the speed. The breathing room."

If next busy season is going to repeat itself unless something changes — let's talk before it starts.

The firms we work best with don't call us in February. They call us in May, June, or July — when there's still time to build something properly.
