It's amazing but somehow this guy keep getting reviews erased. I have a local business and reached out for help. After screwing up multiple tax returns and questioning his lack of communication via his assistant, I was fired for rudeness. This was there weeks before taxes were due. He hadn't done them! Expecting serviced to be done and after 8 months of waiting, ya I may get rude. Refused to meet with me. Does all work through an assistant, not a CPA. She is not who I hired. He is being sued by several clients and do not make the same Mistake we made. DO NOT HIRE HIM. Cost me thousands of dollars. See you in court. read more

Very impersonal experience, office staff was not knowledgeable and they lost our hard drive with our quickbooks information.

I have used Bryce since he worked out of his house in Washington State. I know he scratches his head when I send him my stuff every year and wonders "why me", but, he never fails me. I am totally comfortable with Bryce and he has never let me down. "Thank you Bryce for years of great service". Bob read more

BCE Accounting & Tax - From my current home in Scenic, AZ - Accountants Near Me - Sandpoint, Idaho

See all

Bryce has been great to work with. He has been extremely patient, flexible, professional, and relatively responsive. The only issue that stopped me from providing 5 stars was lack of consultation. As a small business owner, I would have liked some sort of guidance on acceptable business expenses/write offs and tax corp classification recommendations, instead of sending multiple emails with questions. That bogged us both down in the long run and left me with a lot of uncertainty. I received some conflicting information between different tax preparers, but ultimately felt confident in the information supplied by Bryce as well as his knowledge in the new tax code. 4 stars are reflected on the processing, ease of document delivery, and tax code knowledge. It has been a true pleasure working with Bryce and I highly recommend his tax preparation service. PROS Send documents electronically E-mail communication Flexibility 2 - 3 week turn around during peak season CONS E-mail communication Unavailable during the month of April (until tax deadline) Cost S-Corp $520 Individual return $175 read more

Bryce was amazing to work with. I went to him freaking out about a tax lien notice I received and he fixed my problem with ease. Not only is my tax lien being removed, but I went from owing to getting a refund. Thank you for all you did, Bryce. I can't even begin to express my gratitude. read more

Update: Bryce contacted me and apologized for our experience. He explained to me why he wasn't as communicative as he usually is to his clients and I really appreciated that! He offered to give us tips and things like that. I think it shows great business practices to want to be aware, take responsibility and offer to make the situation right! Thank you Bryce! Pros: He was really nice when I met him. He has a nice home office. And his online website was easy to use. My husband and I ended up doing everything through his online portal & communicating via email. Which is nice & convenient when you don't have a lot of time to meet in person. Cons: I'm only giving two stars because his communication was terrible. He didn't explain anything to us unless we asked for every detail we wanted to know. He didn't provide any advice on how we could save money the following year or find tax write offs. He asked no questions except the basic to file our taxes. My brother has a accountant who gives them all kinds of tips and such. So that was the expectation we had gone in with. We didn't use him because he wasn't as local to us but for the same price I wish we had. We hired him instead of doing something like turbo tax so things could be explained to us throughly & we were highly disappointed. His email replies were very short and I didn't find them professional. He had great reviews so I'm surprised our experience wasn't as excellent as others. read more

Bryce has helped me save thousands of dollars! Last year I went to some other "CPA" in Seattle. This other guy didn't know what he was doing, and told me I owe him $2000 just to fix my taxes. I decided to find a new CPA. After reading the positive reviews about Bryce, I gave him a try last year. Not only did he help me amend my taxes, but he diligently took his time to help me file a change of accounting method to claim my rental property in California as a depreciating asset. I've now used Bryce two years in a row. He really knows his stuff, understands the tax rules inside and out. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for help with their taxes. Thank you Bryce for all your help! read more

My hubby and I had moved here from another and were in search of a tax person to help us out . It's pretty scary trying to find someone new with good experience and who is very knowledgeable with Taxes ! We were reaching the deadline and I was freaking out that we would miss the date . I had contacted Bryce and right away he scheduled us in ! He was very friendly and welcoming , I appreciated that he took the time to answer all of our questions , he double checked all his work before submitting our paperwork, and was very thorough. Not once did we feel uncomfortable , we felt that we were in good hands . It was great that afterwards he went over our paperwork with us .. We will definitely be coming back next year ! read more

For the past four or five years I've gone to H&R block to file my taxes. Some times feeling relieved I took them to someone, other times wishing I just did them myself instead of paying someone who didn't seem to have a clue on how to file an out of state tax return ask ME for help. The plan was to wish for the best and find an H&R block near me, but after reading reviews in my area I had a change of heart and glad I did. Having just gotten married last year and having almost three times as many documents to bring in than in my past experiences, I wanted a tax professional this year and that's just what we got with Bryce. Even with two different out of state claims, rental property in Hawaii, tons of recipes and other deductions, we where still in and out in about an hour which is the average time I spent at H&R filing alone! Bryce was very professional and patient with me and my wife making what could have easily been a tax nightmare into a very smooth and headache free process. So thankful I didn't choose the other guys this time or try and file it myself. As long as we are in WA, BCE accounting and Tax will have our business. Go see Bryce! You won't regret it!! read more

Wow what a life saver! I've done our taxes using TurboTax for the past couple years, but this year we had a sale of a house and a few other things that made it extra confusing. Turbotax ended up saying we owed over $6,000!!! This really scared us so we quickly found Bryce online and made an appointment for that same day. He met with us and in less than 45 minutes dropped that number by $4,000. He was very kind and easy to work with. I would recommend him to anyone. He saved us a lot of money and we couldn't be more grateful. read more

I am a small business owner and have been working with Bryce for about a year, both for business and personal income tax filings. He is extremely easy to work with and very fast. All I have to do is upload my information via his secure client portal, he works his magic, and my return is done lightning fast. I highly recommend him! read more

My wife and I discovered this business from yelp. With all the excellent reviews, we decided to give Bryce a go with our personal taxes. Our experience with him was very pleasant. He was fast, efficient and answered all of our newbie tax questions. Bryce made the process stress free and we will be returning next year! :) read more

Bryce didn't just "do our taxes." He did the hell out of em! We let Bryce know we were trying to buy a house and the mortgage company wanted to see our 2016 taxes done. Bryce did them in a day! During March! He was not kidding around! Not only that, our refund covered our closing costs. Is Bryce magic? I don't know. But he probably is. read more

This is the 2nd year I used Bryce's services to do my taxes. Both times it was very quick & easy. He has a site that you can load your info onto & everything for me was done via email. My taxes were e-filed and I also paid online. The turnaround time was very quick. I definitely recommend BCE for your tax needs! I'll be using him again! read more

This guy moves to Idaho in may of 2019... never says a word, even though we have emailed over the last year and NOT ONCE did he say he moved!!! Then he sends a letter last month saying we can do things by mail or through a "secure upload"???? F.U. dude! This is just the height of horrible business practice and and unbelievable douche move by someone who cares nothing for his clients!!!! RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

I've been going to H&R block but decided to try and do them myself to save money. That was a mistake. Too many life events that affected my filing so I decided to do the safe thing and have a professional do them. Bryce was a good choice. Very professional, thorough, and knowledgeable. I'm going to use him from now on and highly recommend his services. read more

My husband and I had been using an out-of-state tax preparer (EA) for many years and were looking to switch to a local person. Based on the great reviews online, we contacted BCE. Wow, all his 5-star reviews were correct! Bryce responded quickly to our call and set up an appointment for us. Filing our extended tax return with Bryce in October was a breeze. Bryce was so pleasant, knowledgeable (he is a CPA), fast, and amazingly efficient! We feel very fortunate to have found Bryce and we are looking forward to continuously working with him in the future. We highly recommend BCE Accounting & Tax to anyone in search of a great accountant/tax preparer! read more

We have used his services for our personal family & business taxes. Very kind and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Bryce got us a bigger refund and brought our attention to a mortgage irregularity. Very easy to send him our tax docs online, sign online, everything was a breeze. A very nice experience overall! read more

Bryce was awesome! Got us in at the last minute, then organized our pile of tax documents into something that made sense for us and the IRS. We have always done turbo tax but we got confused and thought we might actually owe taxes. NOPE Bryce really worked some knowledge magic on our taxes. Plus I LOVE spending money locally, makes me feel better. So yeah professional, fast and friendly, recommended. read more

Great guy to have do your taxes. I've been going to HnR Block for many years and now I wish I never did. Very knowledgeable and knows exactly what to do. I have multiple rental properties and he had everything finished up in no time. He is going to be my tax accountant for many years to come. read more

My husband and I had some recent changes with my income when i became self employed as a daycare provider in my home. Being a first time business owner im still going through the learning process. Going to Bryce he was able to not only help us with tax preparation but also become my daycare accountant to help keep all my finance and paperwork on track. He has been a life saver! My husband and i highly suggest BCE Accounting and Tax. read more

Great experience- made tax time easy! We will definitely use this service again next year!

Bryce is the best. I went through one horrible accountant / bookeeper and called around to incompetent places who didn't speak english or who didn't show up to their appointments. From day one, Bryce helped me feel comfortable and he has always done what he said he was going to do. I've hired him to not only do my taxes but my accounting and am happier and less stressed because of it. Thanks Bryce! read more

Bryce has been doing my business and personal taxes since 2014. I just upload my documents and quicken file via his secure client portal and it turns into tax returns for me to electronically sign. It is so easy and headache free. Also, when I have any tax questions, I just shoot him an email and he always responds with the answer. Not only is he professional, he is also nice. read more

It's tax season! Everyone is scrambling to find a place to do their taxes. Yes, turbo tax, taxact, or H&R block does make it simple to do your own taxes. BUT! What if you recently bought a house, have capital gains or losses from the stock market, and you want to get the best return possible? The answer is BCE Accounting & Tax. I wanted a certified CPA to do my taxes and this person has it all. First great impression was his flexibility. I called him on a Monday stating my problem. He said he's swamped with customers due to height of the tax season. I replied in defeat "I understand". His reply was can you come in on Friday at 7:30 PM. In my mind I was saying "who works on a Friday night, especially 7:30 PM"? Apparently, this person does. He goes above and beyond to satisfy his customers. When I arrived, he was very courteous. His office is located inside his home. It's a very nice office, extremely eye pleasing. All I can say is, it was quick, painless, and simply. He doesn't just zip through the process of doing ones taxes. He took his time to find all the possible deductibles I can get. The whole process took nearly one and a half hours. He got me the best returns I can possibly get. He's my new tax person for years to come. I fully recommend his services. You will not be disappointed. read more

We have used TurboTax for several years, but after buying a house in 2015, we had some questions and wanted to take our taxes to a professional we could talk to. Bryce had excellent reviews on Yelp, so we decided to give him a try and were very pleased with the results. He runs his business out of his home, which can be a little disconcerting if you aren't expecting that, so just keep that in mind. TurboTax told us we owed $1086 and Bryce helped us get that down to only owning $66 with deductions and credits we hadn't thought of. He definitely paid for himself and is worth the money and we will use him again in the future. read more

Bryce was great and affordable. I decided to try him out this year instead of going to H&R Block. He did my taxes in 30 mins. He's quick, highly educated Nz I was very happy with the overall results. He also offers a scan option where you don't even have to go in - can't get better than that. read more

We saw Bryce for the first time this year and I was very happy with his work. We had some big purchases last year and started a home business so I had no idea how to figure all that out on my own. It's always a little nerve racking to trust someone you don't know with your money but he was extremely knowledgeable, quick, and very reasonably priced. I will certainly be using him in the future and I would definitely recommend him. read more
