Online CPA in New York

Traditionally, a visit with a CPA required gathering your documents, receipts, statements, spreadsheets and lists, and schlepping them all to an in-person meeting at your CPA's office. Hours later, after you've gone through all of your information with her, she would prepare your tax documents for filing, charge you a hefty fee, then file your taxes. If you were lucky, her services would help you get a tax refund from the IRS that would be greater than the amount you paid for her services. But it doesn't have to be that way. As with so many services in this age of digital tools and online resources, it should come as no surprise that consulting with an expert tax CPA, or Certified Public Accountant, in states like New York is now possible without ever leaving your home. FlyFin's Ask a CPA tool gives you unlimited access, at no cost, to a team of licensed tax professionals with a combined 100+ years of experience. Just enter your name and email address, and ask a CPA any question, from how to fill out a tax form, to how to find the hundreds of deductions available to you. FlyFin CPAs have deep knowledge of the tax system in New York, including expertise in taxes for self-employed taxpayers such as nurses, delivery drivers and many more, as well as taxes for business structures such as LLCs, S-Corps, sole proprietorships and partnerships.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does online tax filing in New York work?

How is a CPA defined in New York?

Certified public accountants, or CPAs, in New York are tax professionals with the right education and experience to help New York taxpayers prepare and file their taxes. They have a license issued by the New York state board of accountancy. Accountants in New York have to pass a rigorous exam called the Uniform CPA Exam. In addition to helping individuals prepare taxes, New York CPAs work in positions as public or corporate accountants, and many executives with titles like Controller or Chief Financial Officer are also CPAs. New York CPAs are the tax professionals who are most familiar with the New York self-employment tax rate, income tax rate, property tax rate and every major and minor tax regulation in New York that could affect their clients tax situation. A good New York CPA is a walking encyclopedia of tax information at both the New York level and federal level.
