Mr. Alfred said it wasn't a big deal( although if your name and social security number don't match guess what the IRS does to you?) , but that he would send in a request to change the first name to the IRS. I waited about 60 days to follow up with mr. Alfred. He stated your not going to get the IRS to respond to you to say if they changed your first name to the correct name or not. So I called the IRS, I did have to wait a while. It was worth it , the change was made over the phone that instant to reflect the correct first name. My concern was his lack of attention to detail and the lack of caring about it !!! . So I do not recommend this Certified Publix Accountant for any type of business.

He sat with us at our appointment and went through the 1040 explaining different advantages and implications of each part of the return. In the past, with other tax accountants, we would go through different aspects of the return and then wait weeks until it was ready to be filed. With Carl and Accu-tax, our return was ready to be submitted only a day or two after our meeting when I finalized some numbers and details that were needed. His patience and experience was the key in optimizing our return and insuring we had the best possible outcome. I highly recommend Carl and Accu-tax!

As for the error, in the taxes, I have provided screenshots of emails between myself and Mary. Moral of the story do not use these CPAs, as proof by Todd's lying below and unwillingness to make things right when customers have been wronged. I used Culpepper for three years and will not be returning. The first year was excellent, but my experience declined sharply after that. In the second year, communication with Mary became difficult, she was hard to reach and frequently offered excuses for delays. Our taxes are somewhat complex, and I expect extensions, which was the case for both 2023 and 2024. In 2023, despite poor communication, we finalized our taxes shortly after the deadline, so I let it go. 2024, however, was unacceptable. Mary prepared both our business and personal taxes. While working on our personal return, almost a month later, she discovered an error in the business return and attempted to blame me, claiming I hadn't communicated a change. That change was clearly included in the information sheet we provide every year. She eventually corrected the mistake at no charge, but only after deflecting responsibility. Meanwhile, weeks went by between responses, filled with the same excuses as the prior year. She didn't file our taxes until July, over three months past the deadline. I paid the bill but raised no further complaint at the time. Later, my husband called to give them an opportunity to make things right after they charged us an exorbitant fee for both returns, plus penalties from the late filing. Instead of addressing our concerns, they refused to let us speak with anyone other than Mary. She repeatedly placed blame on me and insisted she had done her due diligence, despite the fact that I had documented the gaps in communication with a clear timeline. Nothing was resolved. Because of this, I will no longer use Culpepper and strongly caution others against doing so.

I called in…read morea state of panic knowing that we would not get our taxes done by April 15 (we moved from out of state and it was a complicated return). We had our appointment at the end of April and our return was not complete until early June. I found an error that reduced our tax liability by $7,000. I was told that we would be getting a letter from the IRS regarding the late filing and that I should send that to the CPA and she would request an abatement of the penalty since we had never filed or paid late before. I assumed that was part of the process that we had paid for, but then I got an additional bill for almost $200. If I had known that there would be an extra charge, I would've just called the IRS myself.
