Thank you for voting us as the Best Accounting/Tax Preparation in Wilson County!

Thank you !

We would like to take a moment to thank our clients for their patience and understanding while we navigated through the trials of the lightning strike that occurred on March 15. We ask that you continue to have patience as we move forward.

The number of things that were affected by this have been tremendous as we lost computers, monitors, printers, scanners, copiers, fax machines, internet, phones systems, cameras, credit card machines, and the list goes on.

Our vendors have been wonderful in working to get our equipment replaced in the quickest manner possible and we appreciate them. It has been a stressful process but it seems that we are finally operating at full capacity.

As hard as we worked to stay on schedule, this has set us behind but we are diligently working to gain ground daily. Our staff has been amazing through this and continue to put in the work to make it to the deadline.

Again, thank you for you understanding and patience and continue to have both as we work toward April 15.

Do you need a Tax Filing Extension?

If you are needing to file an extension for the Tax Year 2024, download a request form HERE, complete and return to our office via email (doris@rabcpa.com) of fax (615-444-6626).

You will also need to complete the Tax Information Worksheet for the Extension Request to be completed.

All forms will be due by Friday, April 11, 2025 to ensure the Extension if filed timely.

Please note: the extension only extends the time for you to file your return. This does NOT extend the due date or time to pay any outstanding tax liability if you owe additional taxes. In the event additional taxes are due and remitted after April 15, 2025 you will be subject to late payment penalties and interest.  You will need to inform us of the amount you intend to send with your extension and this amount will need to be submitted along with the request for extension.

More updates on our progress...

Every day brings us closer to our office being “back to normal” after the lightening strike almost two weeks ago.

We now have a working fax and have the ability to take Credit Cards again. Our phones are still being programed so not all staff has one at their desk and email is still a great way to get in touch with individual staff members.

We are still working with “loaner” copiers and scanners as we wait for ours to be delivered.

Thank you again for your patience.

News on the Lightening Strike....

We are slowly getting back to normal but it is a work in progress.

Our phone service has been restored but we do not have each individual office supplied with a phone yet as they are on order and must be programmed before delivery. You may have to leave your number and wait for a call back or you can still email individual staff members for fastest response. (doris@rabcpa.com; danny@rabcpa.com; carlene@rabcpa.com; renee@rabcpa.com; staff@rabcpa.com)

We do not have the ability to accept credit cards yet but have that machine on order also and it must be programmed as well. We can take cash, checks and Venmo at this time.

We do not have a fax machine that is working at this time, but you are welcome to email. Hopefully our fax capability will be restored within a few days.

We will keep you updated as we receive information.

Thank you for your patience during this very trying time.

Update on lightening strike 3/15/25

Our phones are still out except for one line that is being forwarded to a cell phone. Email is still the most efficient way to connect with us. Please email any of our staff for fastest response. doris@rabcpa.com; danny@rabcpa.com; carlene@rabcpa.com; deborah@rabcpa.com; renee@rabcpa.com; staff@rabcpa.com

You can leave a message and we will return your call as soon as possible but email is the most efficient way to correspond with our office at this time. We have only one phone line to work with until our phone system is restored.

We are thankful that no one was injured and our beloved historical building was not structurally damaged.

We are working diligently with the appropriate companies to get everything back to normal as quickly as possible but we ask that our clients are patient as there are many moving parts for us to address.

Thank you for your understanding during this process.

Our phones are out.......

Our office phones are out due to a direct lightening strike from Saturday’s storm.

For fastest response email any of our staff: doris@rabcpa.com; danny@rabcpa.com; carlene@rabcpa.com; deborah@rabcpa.com; renee@rabcpa.com; staff@rabcpa.com

We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to return everything back to normal.

Tax Season 2024 has begun...

Some new (and not so new) information to help tax season go smoothly….

Tax Season 2024 is upon us!  A few things we would like to remind you of as we navigate this season.

  • We CANNOT accept pictures of tax information. Pictures are not clear when printed and can be difficult to print altogether. Please include clear copies of your 1099’s, W2’s and any other necessary information.

  • Please, please, please DO NOT staple your papers together. A simple paper clip is much preferred.

  • Deadlines for tax information to be in our office is March 24, 2025 for Individuals. ·  If you have returns needing to be filed for other entities, Corporations, LLC’s or Partnerships, the due date for information to be into our office is February 24, 2025.

  • All Clients must complete a 2024 Individual Tax Information Packet to ensure all information is updated. This is for your benefit and to make the process as flawless as possible. It only takes a few minutes and will be REQUIRED for ALL CLIENTS.

  •  Please bring all information at one time. Bringing additional information after you have informed us that your return is ready to be completed will result in additional fees if your return must be revised. 

  • If you need an extension filed, contact our office by email (doris@rabcpa.com) so we can add you to that list. This MUST be done by email…Remember, this extends only the time for you to file your return. This does NOT extend the due date or time if you owe additional tax liabilities to be paid. In the event additional taxes are due and remitted after April 15, you will be subject to late payment penalties and interest.  You will need to inform us of the amount you intend to send with your extension and this amount will need to be submitted along with the request for extension.

Where's My Refund ?????

If you are questioning “Where’s My Refund” you will need to either call the Internal Revenue Service or go to their website that is dedicated to finding the answer.

The phone number is 844-545-5640 and the website link can be accessed here.

As much as we would like to be able to answer that question for you, the IRS requires the taxpayer themselves to answer personal questions before information is released.
