Individuals
Bates Kos Simek & Skrivanek
LLP continues to enjoy servicing
a broad tax compliance client base. We have developed very trusted
relationships with tax clients ranging from families to small business
owners to executives of major companies.
We have developed a worldwide client base over the years. By virtue
of this fact, we are knowledgeable in various state taxation issues.
Some of our local clients have business ventures of various degrees in
other states, while still other clients reside full-time in states other
than Texas. While convenience certainly matters to our clients, most of
our clients that move from Texas to another state choose to continue our
professional relationship. With e-mail, fax lines, and our new Online
Tax Organizer, the distance in miles is mitigated by the distance we
go to satisfy our clients.
We have also developed significant experience in the area of
expatriate taxation (for US citizens living and working abroad). Our
overseas clients have been located in various regions such as South
America, the United Kingdom, the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast
Asia. Click here for more information on our tax
services for expatriates.
We pride ourselves in providing our clients more than just tax return
preparation-we provide solutions. We point out opportunities for
meaningful tax planning. See our Tax Tips for
starters.

Nonprofit
Organizations
Many nonprofit organizations are required to file a tax
return (technically termed an information return) depending on the
volume or type of revenue they generate. Typically, the required form is
some version of a Form 990. Stemming from our continuous work with
nonprofit organizations, we have amassed significant experience
preparing Form 990. Directors of nonprofit organizations should consult
with a tax advisor to determine the organization's compliance
requirements.

Expatriates
If you are a US citizen living and
working abroad, you are still required to file a US income tax return
reporting your worldwide income-regardless of the source. However, under
certain conditions, you may be able to exclude up to $80,000 from your
annual income.
Alternatively, you may be able to take a credit of any income tax paid
to a foreign country against your US income tax, thus avoiding any
double-taxation.
The rules surrounding expatriate taxation are complex; therefore, you
should engage the services of a CPA that is knowledgeable in this area
of taxation. With over twenty years experience working with expatriates, we
are the solution to your special tax needs.
We also welcome discussions with employers of expatriates regarding
volume tax return preparation contracts.
