Great place to do your taxes!…read more Amy Parker is very knowledgeable, professional and organized. I have been using her for several years and couldn't be happier. My taxes are pretty cut and dry, not too complicated, but I still like someone to organize it all for me. It is very easy to get an appt with her come tax season. I have been to HR Block before, but I felt they could care less if I got the best refund. Mrs. Parker asks you a lot of questions to make sure she covers every possible tax break. She also gives you pointers on how to save in the future. An example I learned from her: save your receipts from improvements you made on you house to show when you sell your house. It's great to support an honest, small business owner in Salinas.

Do NOT use this tax preparer…read more My main complaint is incompetence and rudeness. I would not recommend her to anyone who expects their taxes to be completed and filed on time. She repeatedly promised to get the job done but failed to deliver. Our tax returns were filed late every year we used her services. What made the experience even more frustrating was that if we contacted her to ask when our taxes would be completed, we were billed for the email or phone call. I felt this was never clearly disclosed upfront. Overall, I found her communication, reliability, and follow-through to be very disappointing. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend her services.
