FAQs

A Service Bureau packages and sub-licenses professional tax software to other independent preparers. Instead of just filing returns, you build a network of preparers, support their offices, and earn residual revenue on every return filed.
We recommend preparing at least 150 returns annually under your own EFIN before launching a Service Bureau, ensuring you have the operational base to support sub-offices.
Under our Expansion Access program, you can custom-brand the cloud tax software interface. Your preparers will log into a portal branded with your logo, company name, custom default fees, and support links.
Mentorship is year-round. We guide systems audit in Q2-Q3, recruitment in Q4, and active operational support during tax filing season.
