Core Operational Roles
You Review. We Prep.
Your Tax Prep VA manages the tedious backend of tax season—document wrangling, data entry, and signature tracking—ensuring files land on your desk perfectly prepared for final review.
Document Indexing & Bookmarking
We organize shoe-boxes of digital receipts. We merge, reorder, and cleanly bookmark PDFs (W-2s, 1099s, K-1s) so your review process takes minutes, not hours.
1040/1120 Data Entry
Entering raw data directly into Drake, Lacerte, or ProConnect. We input wages, interest, trial balances, and depreciation schedules accurately for your final CPA sign-off.
Missing Document Chasing
Stop playing hide-and-seek. We track open tax organizers, identify missing forms, and send polite, persistent follow-up emails/messages to clients to complete their files.
Form 8879 & Signature Tracking
Managing the e-file authorization process. We upload returns to your portal, request client e-signatures, and notify you the moment the return is cleared to transmit.
Practice Management CRM
Keeping TaxDome, Canopy, or Karbon updated. We move client jobs through the pipeline stages, ensuring no return falls through the cracks during busy season.
IRS Transcript Pulling
For tax resolution firms: We navigate e-Services or PitBullTax to pull Wage & Income, Account, and Record of Account transcripts for your case analysis.
