The only downside is she is very busy so you have to schedule right away to get your taxes submitted on time. There is a reason they are so busy, they know what they're doing. I highly recommend Ragasa Tax Services.

Ramos Tax Service came highly recommended by my husband's co-worker, and I'm so glad we decided to…read moregive them a try. For the past ten years, I've dreaded tax season because we're in a higher tax bracket. We used to go to another accounting agency, but over time we noticed they weren't really taking the time to thoroughly go over everything with us, and their fees kept increasing. Enter Ramos Tax Service. Although they do not take scheduled appointments, the process was still very easy. They have parking available, and once we checked in, I believe our wait was only about 20 to 30 minutes, which honestly was not bad at all. They even had snacks available while we waited. Once we were called, Noemi was incredibly friendly and helpful. Even though we ended up owing taxes, she took the time to carefully review everything with us, which definitely eased some of the sting. She also gave us very helpful suggestions for next year to help minimize what we may owe. And their fees? Very reasonable. Do I recommend Ramos Tax Service? Absolutely.

First time here, founded on Yelp. Based on good reviews, decided to give this place a chance…read more Filing late this year and needed to get my taxes done before the dead line! Luckily they accept walk ins. I signed in about 1040am and got called around 130pm. Mrs. Ramos was quick and kind. Seems like when I got to her all of my information was inputted into her computer. Might've been her assistant that sat next to her helped her input all the info's, to speed up the process. I sat with Mrs. Ramos for about 10 minutes and I was done. The outcome of my tax return was not the outcome I wanted but oh well. It is what it is. I feel no matter what, taxes is always owed on my part. They charged $150 for service which I think is fair, based on what others are charging to do taxes now days. If you do decide to come here, expect to wait. They do have a lot of clients and new clients as well, based on my observation while I sat and waited. The waiting area is clean and comfortable. They provide snacks to purchase, cost is about a dollar each. Parking can be a little difficult, as they have about 6-8 stalls in front of their office. I believe you could also park on the street and walk over. Location is right across the street from Honowai elementary. Not sure if I'll return next year, but I'm glad I gave them a chance and I'm glad they took me in as a walk in because I needed to get my taxes done ASAP.

My previous tax consultant of 20 years passed away in late summer of 2025. I started searching for another tax consultant in Hawaii and I came across Wicklund Financial Services. All the reviews were positive and glowing. I also found other services too. I settled on trying Wicklund Financial Services and have never regretted it. I was concerned because my tax returns involve California, Maryland and Hawaii tax returns. I was concerned that they wouldn't be able to help me. Working with Reyn Wicklund, it was clear he understood how to prepare my tax return. He asked all the right questions and uploading all the documents via Tax Dome securely made things so much easier and faster. It also helped me to organize my tax documents as Tax Dome guides you through the various documents needed as well as give you the opportunity to add additional documents outside of the usual categories. By the way, I don't live in Hawaii. I live in Maryland, but that didn't matter. Reyn was able to complete my tax return remotely in a very timely manner without any problems. I will continue to use Wicklund Financial Services. Reyn is extremely knowledgeable, responds quickly to questions and concerns, keeps you updated on the progress of your tax return and is a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Wicklund Financial Services for your tax returns. I am sure they are equally skilled in Financial planning and other services. The entire staff are friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, very responsive to questions, concerns and inquiries and very easy to work with.

After reading information on their website, we pre-printed the necessary forms and brought in the requested paperwork hoping we could get a walk in. We came in on a weekday afternoon and was welcomed in by Alma. When we came in she was available to take us however they didn't have enough "tables" to take us in so we had to schedule an appointment in which they were readily available and open a month before taxes were due. Since we already looked online for the appropriate forms and documents, Alma treated our paperwork as a drop off and was able to take everything for us right there and then. I did ask her if we could keep our originals of our IDs, SSN cards, and birth certificates since it was our first time filing there and she was able to do it on the spot. Also she checked and verified that we had everything needed for filing purposes and to assist us getting the best return possible and she guided us for additional paperwork we didn't even think of including! She was very tentative to our questions as we were first time co home owners and also not yet married so we were concerned how it would affect our individual returns but she was so courteous and helpful with all of the answers she provided to us. By the time it was for our appointment, she had a cancelation prior to ours and offered for us to come earlier if we wanted to. She also had already inputting our numbers and did a "pre crunch" on the different types of filing on which would best benefit us as a whole for which the house should go under. Long story short, her numbers matched spot on and we went with our best choice of filing and got the most we've ever receieved on a return so far. We were there for only 30 minutes, signed the official documents and we were good to go! Going forward Alma will definitely be out tax person. We also both received our tax return via direct deposit for both federal and state within 2.5 weeks of filing with no issues.

Kara gave us advice and helped us start our LLC (how to do it on our own so we do not get charged a…read morelot of money for an account or CPA to do it). She was knowledgeable about starting a small business with an LLC, so I will give her that, but after working with her more, my husband and I have decided she's just not what our business is looking for, especially since we are now growing. We were happy with her service in the start but overtime it was just not up to par. Yes, she can advise on how to start an LLC on our own and do our tax returns, but that is it. If you are looking for someone to help you plan ahead for your business for tax strategies and tax planning, this may not be the place. We only ever heard from her for our returns and that was it. Upon going with another company, we also discovered some forms we did not file but were supposed to, which Kara did not inform us of. For tax returns, there is a portal to download your documents, but there is no "list" or things that we should consider uploading, so it can be a lot of back and forth on- send your expenses, send your mortgage, send this and that or cannot finalize return, etc. It just seems unorganized and if you're dreading taxes, this will make it worse. I also had a return for a different state in 2022 that was not filed (unsure why a different company omitted it). However, I decided to do it independently since Kara mentioned there would be a nominal fee if she did it because she does not know about another state's filing regulations. I asked the previous accounting company if it would cause any problems since it was omitted, and they said it would be ok since the IRS has a matching system and will send us a notification if anything was excluded so we could wait for that. Upon getting the notification, we can decide whether to make an amendment. Kara failed to mention that part. We felt she just wanted us to spend more money to have her do it or something. We moved from MY Personal CPA to her because yearly we would get a different tax preparer so we thought if we went with a smaller company (First Choice Accounting) we would get more personalized help but going with a one person team means getting emails at odd times like late at night and getting missed. Also, even though I did not go with Kara submitting my out of state return, I got charged a one-time $150 fee for Kara reviewing the 2022 tax return which I was not aware of. She was not upfront about the fact that there would be a charge when she asked if I could send her my 2022 return so she could look at it to figure out why the other state W2 was omitted. When I brought up that I was not expecting a charge, she did not reply to me. Finally, she always apologizes for responding late. Her cat got spayed, stayed up late, and was busy. You call her, and she doesn't pick up, but she will reply via email which increases more of the back and forth. This pretty much sums up why we are going with someone else even if we have to pay $400 to part from her since she said she already worked on our return even though she was still asking for documents and more clarification.
