As an international tax professional, Marcela Kane has worked in roles for five global companies, using her experience in taxation, law and accountancy to their benefit. If you have just started working with an accountant it is important that you ask the right questions to get the most out of the service. The following are all useful queries to get you started.
How Will I Contact You?
Good accountants will understand the need to be available for their clients so that they can provide relevant information when it is needed. You should ask about communication protocols early on in the process so that you understand what you need to do to get in touch and how long it will take for you to receive a reply.
How Can I Prepare For Tax Season?
Your preparations for filing income taxes and other documentation should start as early as possible, so discuss the issue with your accountant. Ideally, you will be provided with advice on how to track your expenses and other documentation that could be used to decrease the amount that you pay, plus you may receive additional advice on how to properly handle your business and personal finances.
Do I Have Industry Considerations?
Marcela Kane works in the oil and gas industry as a senior manager at Halliburton. There are often industry-specific considerations that your accountant can take into account when creating your tax plan, so be sure to offer information about what you do in order to take full advantage of them.
