We began with Gordin and associates a few years ago, with the result being what you see in an email I sent that was never responded to:
Louise,
Let me make sure I have the events right. I want the record memorialized.
A few years ago, we met with Bob and completed an intake form wherein we declared, both by in-person explanation and by the form, that our largest single deduction each year was the $12K alimony paid to my former wife. Yet, for two years straight, this was not included in our returns, and only after we inspected and questioned this, two years of amended returns had to be filed.
Then, even though Bob had all of our income streams, we were not asked to file quarterlies, causing a massive year-end payment to both the IRS and the Franchise Tax Board for FY 2025.
Then, we were grossly overcharged on our last tax preparation fees, resulting in a credit. Again, an error found by us.
Then, documents were misfiled by your office, resulting in today's amended report.
Have you now reviewed the quarterlies for FY 2026? Do we now owe even more money than was already paid in Q1 and Q2? Are these recalculated based on the documents found for FY 2026?
Correct me where I am wrong here.
I will stop by today for the documents.
(No response by Gordin and Associates was received to this email, nor to the one after making sure they had filed the latest amended return.)
Consider this when choosing your tax accountant. In our experience, responsive communications are not their strong suit.
