Tax Filing & Internal Audit Assistance

I’m looking for a qualified accountant who can handle two connected tasks for my business:

• Tax preparation – prepare and file the current year’s returns accurately and on time, making sure every allowable deduction and credit is captured.
• Internal audit of our financial statements – review the books for accuracy, consistency with GAAP, and highlight any discrepancies or areas that may raise red flags with the tax authorities.

You’ll receive secure access to our accounting software (QuickBooks Online) plus last year’s returns and supporting documents. After your review, I expect a concise audit report that summarizes findings, provides actionable recommendations, and confirms that the numbers used for the tax filing are reliable.

Experience with small-to-mid-sized businesses, U.S. tax codes, and internal auditing standards is essential. Familiarity with Excel-based workpapers and cloud file–sharing tools will help you move quickly.

Please outline your relevant credentials and the approximate timeline you’ll follow to deliver the completed tax return and the internal audit report.
