Tax preparation for Castle Rock, straight up I-25
Castle Rock and Lone Tree are about fifteen minutes apart on the same interstate, in the same county. Charles Trautman, EA, has been preparing returns and handling IRS matters from the Park Meadows office since 2010, and Douglas County has always been most of the client list.
The returns Castle Rock tends to bring in
Castle Rock has been absorbing new residents for years, and a move shows up on a tax return in ways people do not expect. A part-year Colorado return alongside another state's. A house sold somewhere else, with a gain to account for. Withholding set up for a different state's rates that never got corrected. None of that is exotic, but all of it is easy to get wrong once and then repeat for three years running.
Chuck is an Enrolled Agent, licensed by the federal government with the authority to represent any taxpayer before the IRS. When a return turns into a notice or an audit, or when someone arrives with a few unfiled years to clean up, he deals with the IRS directly rather than handing you a phone number.
- Individual, family, and small-business returns, prepared and e-filed
- Part-year and multi-state returns for recent arrivals to Colorado
- IRS representation for audits, collections, and back returns
