Document Retention Guide

This handy guide will let you know which types of records you should be keeping for your business and personal finances.

F.A.Q.

Are you registered with the IRS?

 Absolutely. Black Star Tax only employs  trained tax professionals who have been vetted and are registered with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Where are you located?

Black Star Tax is a mobile and online tax preparation service, and as such, we do not have a brick and mortar location.

However, we offer mobile services in Phoenix, Glendale, Mesa, Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale, Surprise, Paradise Valley and most surrounding cities. Give us a call and we will come to you!

If you happen to live outside of AZ, and our mobile services aren’t available to you, our secure e-filing option allows you to conveniently and securely transfer your documents to our professionals to complete. All you have to do is review our work and sign.

Why should I come to you instead of a major tax company?

Black Star Tax takes a very personal approach to tax preparation because we believe in order to achieve the best possible outcome, we must understand each and every client. We know how enticing the idea of going back to the same big tax company you’re used to is, but they don’t take the time to go into every detail of your finances in order to maximize your return and minimize your deductions.

You should come to Black Star Tax for 3 simple reasons:

1. We come to you or offer e-filing, making the experience hassle free.

2. We won’t charge you extra for our knowledge on how to get you the largest return, or the least liability.

3. We are here to teach, serve and empower the community. We don’t just show up for tax season then disappear in July. We are dedicated to not only putting more money back in your pocket this tax season, but to uplifting everyone with financial literacy and an outstanding service.

We’re excited to work with you!

Which forms, documents or records do I need to provide you?

We have created a really handy Tax Appointment Checklist to help you gather the necessary documents ahead of your appointment with one of our professionals.
You can download the checklist as a PDF, check it off as you collect your documents, and send it to us when you’re done so that we know just what kind of tax magic we need to sprinkle on your forms.

Is your E-filing option secure?
Absolutely! We do not take your security lightly. As certified tax professionals, it is our duty to treat your personal information with as much, if not more, care than we would our own.
Also, we regularly participate in seminars by the IRS in order to ensure we are in compliance with the expected level of security required to handle personal information.

 

We only transfer files and documents through secure and encrypted platforms.

 

We will never mishandle your information.
How long does it take to prepare my taxes?
The truth is, there is no way to give a certain time in which we can finish your return. It could take as little as 20 minutes, to as much as over and hour depending on the complexity of your tax situation and the forms required.

We are able to collect all necessary documents securely from you, complete the return without you having to be present, and sent it back to you for review and your signature.

In most cases, the average single person’s tax return takes roughly 30-40 minutes to complete.

Business tax forms can take 1Hr+

Is there a limit to how much I can be advanced through your "Refund Advance" program?
Yes, the limit is $9500.
Where do we collect our advance?
If you qualify for a refund advance through us, one of our agents will be able to print and provide you with your check within 48hrs. We offer overnight mailing, delivery (in phoenix, tempe, mesa and chandler) and pickup.
Please contact us for more information!
Do you offer Audit Protection?
We do indeed! For a small fee, you can add audit protection to your tax preparation package.
