Online CPA in North Carolina

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 North Carolina 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 North Carolina, 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 North Carolina work?

How is a CPA defined in North Carolina?

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

What exactly CPAs in North Carolina do?

The role of a North Carolina CPA is to act as a trusted financial advisor to every taxpayer who is their client. A CPA in North Carolina should be able to answer any possible tax question their client may have, no matter what their tax situation may be. CPAs in North Carolina should have the experience and expertise to prepare all the documents taxpayers are required to file in North Carolina with 100% accuracy.
