Working with Andrew was one of the best decisions I've made when it comes to handling my taxes. He's licensed in all 50 states, which gave me confidence right away -- I'm in Minnesota, and he's in California, but distance was no issue at all. I came to him with a mountain of tax issues: back taxes from 2017 through 2024, including a 2024 return that had already been filed incorrectly and needed to be amended. My situation was complex -- multiple 1099s, self-employment income, and no clear expense structure for several years. I was overwhelmed and had no idea where to even begin. Andrew stepped in and took full control. In just two days, he filed all of my back taxes. He carefully reviewed every year, helped me properly structure qualified business expenses to reduce my tax liability, and ultimately saved me a substantial amount of money. He worked fast, but never sloppy -- I had draft returns in 24 hours, and we got on a call to go over everything line by line. Once I approved, he sent e-signs for e-filing, and even mailed the older years certified so we could track them. He didn't stop there -- he scheduled a follow-up 30 days later to make sure the IRS and the state were fully updated and compliant. The client portal was smooth and easy to use -- uploading documents took minutes. Today, I'm fully compliant and feel like I got my life back. If you're behind on taxes, especially with self-employment or 1099 income, don't hesitate -- Andrew is fast, meticulous, and truly knows what he's doing. read more

I reached out to Andrew Haskins because I had just moved and was struggling to find a tax professional who was taking new clients. From the very first conversation, I could tell he was more than just a tax preparer -- he's a true strategist. He took the time to understand my income, our household situation, and my husband's LLC, and explained how having the right structure in place would make a real difference as our income grows. Andrew didn't just wait until tax time. He proactively reviewed my paystub, helped me adjust my withholdings correctly for my tax bracket, and guided me through increasing my 401(k) contributions to maximize pre-tax savings. He made everything simple and actionable, and when adjustments were needed, I was able to log into his secure portal and handle things quickly without stress. What I appreciated most was the planning mindset. We weren't just filing a return -- we were plotting the best moves moving forward, with the flexibility to meet over Zoom or schedule strategy calls as needed. It's clear Andrew looks at the full financial picture, not just the forms. Even though I'm based in Virginia and Andrew is in California, the experience was seamless and incredibly convenient. This level of guidance and proactive planning is exactly what's needed when building a business and managing higher income, no matter where you live. read more

I found Andrew Haskins on the Thumbtack app after the State of California suddenly withdrew thousands from my account--over a confusing capital gains issue tied to a home I sold five years ago. I live in Hawaii and had no idea what was happening. I was crying and completely overwhelmed. My previous tax person at Liberty Tax couldn't help, and I felt stuck. Andrew stepped in and took care of everything with urgency and compassion. He not only has 10 years of experience as a tax professional, but he's also a licensed realtor and mortgage lender, which helped him understand my situation better than anyone. He contacted my former realtor, got the escrow documents from the original sale, and redid my 2020 taxes to show I didn't owe what the state claimed. He guided me through opening an IRS.gov account, showed me how to read my transcripts, and made uploading documents on his website super easy. Within 24 hours, he had everything faxed, emailed, and sent via certified mail--with tracking. He even called the State of California the next morning to confirm receipt and spoke to a rep on my behalf. The payment process was simple, with flexible options, and I felt completely taken care of. It's easy to see why his office is BBB accredited with an A+ rating. I finally have peace of mind. Thank you, Andrew! read more

Working in private equity, it's humbling and embarrassing after years of underemployment and unemployment to be behind on taxes for four years and be in the process of declaring bankruptcy. I did everything I could think of, researched every possibility to avoid what I thought was the inevitable. Then I found Andrew on Thumbtack, and he responded immediately to my message, making time to talk that day. He spent 15 minutes of his time talking me through the process and what he was going to do. He not only put my mind at ease (is the man part therapist?), but he had solutions I couldn't find in a deep dive into Google and ChatGPT. If I had only read his website, I candidly wouldn't have known just how deep his experience goes with my situation. He makes payment to him easy, he completes the work at lightning speed, he communicates often, and he makes it easier on his clients, which in turn provides efficiency I wasn't expecting. It's been years since I've done my taxes and every day it weighed on me. After talking to Andrew, it was the first time I felt confident I was headed in the right direction. I'm not going to say I'm looking forward to next year's tax season, but I can confidently say that I'm looking forward to working with Andrew again. read more

I reached out to Andrew in a bit of a panic because TurboTax kept telling us we owed nearly $7,000, and with our income situation, I knew we were in over our heads. My husband and I file married filing jointly, own a business together, each run our own musician businesses, and he also has a W-2 job. We're both high earners, and at that point it was clear we needed more than tax software -- we needed a strategist. Andrew immediately saw what TurboTax missed. He reviewed everything, fixed the return properly, and completely beat the software's draft. More importantly, he explained why things looked the way they did and how to structure our income going forward. He's now helping us clean up small issues with our existing business and set up an LLC for our musicianship so we can run payroll the right way. What stood out most is that Andrew doesn't just file taxes -- he plans. When you're making six figures, doing multiple businesses, and juggling W-2 income, having someone who understands strategy is everything. Even though we're in Maryland and he's in California, it was 100% worth it. This is the level of expertise you need when your income outgrows DIY tax prep. read more

I needed help getting my taxes done for 2022, 2023, and 2024 -- both personal and for my LLC -- and I'm really glad I reached out. I had previously paid someone on Fiverr to prepare my taxes, but I didn't feel confident submitting them and wanted a real tax practitioner to review and handle everything properly. Andrew was clear, confident, and straightforward from the start. He promised he could knock everything out over the weekend, and he absolutely did. He took the time to make sure my LLC was handled the right way, with proper write-offs and corrections instead of just pushing numbers through software. The process was smooth and stress-free. He set everything up so refunds could be direct deposited and any balances due could be withdrawn directly, and the returns were submitted quickly to both the IRS and the state with no hassle. I also appreciated that flexible payment options like Klarna were available if needed. Even though I live in Georgia and he's in California, we never had to meet in person, and everything was handled efficiently and professionally. I now have an accountant for 2025 and beyond and feel completely confident moving forward. read more

I reached out to Andrew Haskins after becoming a widower in November 2023. I was nearing the end of the probate process and wanted to make sure I had done everything correctly regarding my wife's estate and any tax responsibilities. I've always filed my taxes myself through TurboTax, but this time I wanted a professional who could look at the whole picture. Andrew took the time to understand my entire situation -- from the probate details to my 403(b) and Edward Jones investments -- and created a clear retirement and tax strategy that made sense for my goals. He explained what parts of the probate proceeds were non-taxable, helped me position my accounts for retirement, and outlined a practical plan leading up to my target retirement in 2033. What stood out most was his patience, professionalism, and ability to make complex financial matters simple. I left our consultation with peace of mind knowing I'm on the right path. Even though I'm in North Carolina and he's based in California, the entire process was smooth, efficient, and easy to follow. read more

I reached out to Andrew after receiving a letter in the mail regarding eBay income that was incorrectly reported under my name. From the very first call, he was professional, punctual, and easy to talk to. He called exactly on time, clearly explained what was going on, and immediately stepped in to help articulate to the IRS that the money was not actually mine. Andrew amended my tax return, handled the situation with confidence, and kept me updated throughout the process. The amendment has already been received, and he didn't stop there--he's now helping with issuing a 1099-NEC to my mother and amending her taxes as well to make sure everything is fully corrected. What stood out the most is that he genuinely promised to stay available until everything is completely resolved, and he's followed through on that promise. Being able to schedule appointments directly on his website and handle everything over the phone made the entire process stress-free and efficient, even though I'm located in Colorado and Andrew is based in California. read more

I came to Andrew completely overwhelmed and three years behind on my taxes. Between retirement income, consulting work, and a client who didn't withhold anything, the interest and penalties were piling up and I felt like I could never catch up. Andrew stepped in and handled everything for 2022, 2023, and 2024 -- both federal and state -- quickly and professionally. He set up the direct withdrawals for my state balance and even submitted an installment agreement request to help me breathe again. What I appreciated most was how he broke everything down in simple terms and never made me feel embarrassed for being behind. He's truly a one-stop shop. Now that my taxes are finally in order, he's also helping me put together a living trust to protect my assets, and advising me on how to adjust my withholding so I'm not hit with big balances going forward. We've never met in person, but the process was easy, efficient, and seamless even with me living out of state. I'm grateful to have someone I can trust moving forward. read more

I've always been comfortable handling finances, but this time our taxes were too complex to do on our own. Between the LLC for our Airbnb triplex, stock sales, and the need to file W-2 income in multiple states, my wife reached out to Andrew to take it off our plate. He immediately understood the structure of our property and how to handle the write-offs, and he broke everything down between what applied personally and what applied to the business. What stood out was how seamlessly he combined his tax knowledge with his background as a realtor and mortgage lender. He reviewed our mortgage and escrow paperwork and pulled out deductions that made a real difference. The whole process was smooth from start to finish--easy uploads, e-signing, and direct deposit set up for both years. Andrew filed all federal and state returns correctly, including the Maine non-resident filing tied to my W-2 income, even though we live in New York with our rental and he's based in California. read more

I took all the CALHFA and NACA classes and really knew the mortgage process in California, but I still needed someone who could put it all into action. That's exactly what Andrew did. He's licensed in real estate, mortgage lending, and taxes--which made him the perfect person to help us from start to finish. Before we even made an offer, he helped me withdraw funds from my 401k for the down payment and structured the taxes the right way so it wouldn't impact me later. We saw two properties and ended up getting our dream home in Victorville. Andrew negotiated $14,000 in closing costs, got our rate down to 5.99%, and helped make the whole thing feel simple. He explained everything clearly and made sure we always knew what was next. What sets Andrew apart is that he doesn't just do one piece--he does it all. There's real value in working with someone who knows how all three pieces fit together: taxes, loans, and real estate. Highly recommend him. read more

I'm a self-employed model, and out of nowhere I received a notice saying I owed over $46,000 in back taxes. Before I could even process what was happening, the state placed a levy on my bank account.

My experience with Andrew was exceptional from start to finish. I was being relocated to Southern California for SpaceX with my wife and two kids, and Andrew made the transition incredibly smooth. Not only did he secure us a fantastic mortgage rate, but he also went above and beyond as a realtor. Andrew sold our house in Sacramento in less than a month, which was a huge relief given our tight timeline. Once we moved, he showed us several houses and got us into a probate sale. When that didn't work out due to court issues, he quickly found us an even better home. Thanks to Andrew's expertise and dedication, we closed escrow in just 27 days, making up for the lost time. His professionalism, responsiveness, and knowledge made the entire process stress-free. I highly recommend Andrew for anyone in need of a mortgage lender or realtor. He truly cares about his clients and delivers outstanding results. read more

I originally found Andrew on Thumbtack because I needed a second set of eyes on the taxes my CPA filed last year.

I uploaded my documents to his secure website, and within a few days he carefully went through everything and gave me solid advice that helped me understand my situation.

I left feeling confident and relieved, and I plan to work with him again to handle both my personal and business taxes moving forward. We live in Maryland and he's in California, and we don't care--you can't find this kind of expertise anywhere. read more

Here's Fred's: I was referred to Andrew Haskins by my Aunt Janice--he helped her buy the house right next door. I had back taxes that were stopping me from qualifying for an FHA loan.
