This is a follow-up review after my initial review! After filing a complaint with California Board…read moreof Accountancy, I was told that Lina is not even licensed as a CPA with the CBA! Again another red flag! Be extra cautious and don't get fooled guys!

Lina is nice, and seemed to handle my taxes well, but a lack of attention to detail and…read moreinconsistent communication marred my particular experience. First, it is worth noting that Lina is pleasant and reasonable. She seems to have a good command on tax rules. While I didn't always follow 100% of what she says, this seems true of most financial professionals I've interacted with (translating between the tax code and plain English isn't easy). My main complaints are that (1) Lina charged me much more than what she originally verbally quoted for tax preparation (2) she had my taxes ready 8 days after the filing deadline. My tax bill was higher than expected, so it took me another week to make funds available. Because of this combination of events, I had to pay ~$500 in fees and penalties. Lina covered about $100 worth and offered a 30% discount on next year's preparation. I don't think this would have happened with another tax preparer. I got Lina my tax information 3-4 weeks ahead of the filing deadline, as soon as all of my forms were available. Knowing tax season was busy, I said I was okay if she needed to file an extension, but also asked if there was anything I could do to facilitate it. If Lina had communicated (1) a rough estimate of tax bill ahead of time or (2) warned me that a major penalty would kick in for paying after May 1st, I might have been able to do something differently.
