I called in in need of my payroll taxes reduced as I knew I was paying too much per paycheck. I was booked for an appointment super quick., Madina realized I'm in Maryland and opted to do a virtual meeting. She actually gave me a great discount and the price was way below what I thought I would pay. They advised it would be $55 for 15 mins. They stuck to exactly what they promised. In addition, I had quite a few follow-up questions and some adjustments had to be made after my initial virtual meeting. They didn't inconvenience me by making me meet again, Madina got things taken care of and only called me to advise that my questions were resolved. She offered to meet again for free if I wanted to speak to the CPA again. I was not ever charged for additional work or time to re-review the questions I had. They fixed every single concern/issue. My payroll taxes are now reduced. I'm thrilled and grateful for the outcome of using this CPA company.The best part, Madina did it with the most gracious and kind attitude. Kindness is for sure her super power. I would recommend this company 10 times over! If you're thinking about using this company, reach out to Madina!!! She will get you taken care of promptly, kindly, and handle all of your needs/concerns without missing a beat.

During my first appointment with Make my Day I was met initially with an the CPA's assistant who…read moretook all my forms (which they had asked for) and talked to me for some time. This was weird because over the phone the appointment was said to be made with the CPA herself. So just be sure when you make an appointment that you know who it's with and what will occur. The assistant after looking at all my tax papers gave me a quote for $350- 375, then a quote for $450- 475, then a quote for $550- 575, then was told that I would you would need to charge by the hour to look at one thing. I'm a small business owner, and they advertise specializing in small bushiness, so I'm not really understanding that why I would need to pay her to research something like that. For each increase in price I was told that it was because she didn't notice that my taxes would require "additional work" in certain areas. She gave me the first quote after looking at all of my papers and no new information was provided the first quote to the then open ended quote of apparently I'm guessing $550 + hourly, but we don't know how many hours? Not a great way to run a business in my opinion. I liked the CPA but when it comes down to it they're going to have to run their business like a business- they can't increase the price 4 times during a meeting. They should be able to read the forms, ask some questions, give an estimate. (Edit: I don't have a ton of "issues" as the buisness owner below says, I'm just a small business owner. In fact the first increase was because "they didn't know they needed a schedule c" even I know that and I wasn't pressuring them for a quick estimate, I was happy to answer any questions). Also, the office setting is not professional. It has a really bare bones feeling. We met in the lobby (I would a private setting) and sofa was super uncomfortable, painfully so. They say that people can come in and DIY taxes with someone helping to answer questions but the little cubicles were totally empty while I was in the office- probably because this DIY area had absolutely nothing to offer- they didn't even have coffee! How can someone focus on taxes without coffee!!? (Edit: yes I brought the end of my coffee at first but did need more and didn't know they had any- I couldn't see it, I did look for it).

Please do not reach out to or count on this firm. We worked with Steven for two years without…read moreincident - I wouldn't say he did a great job or was particularly communicative but our taxes always got filed and we aren't aware of errors. However this past year he dodged my emails/phone calls, my husband's emails/phone calls, and my elderly mother's emails/phone calls (we all file separately). He once picked up the phone and then pretended to be someone else when he realized I was calling for an update on my taxes. He lied to us about filing for an extension and took forms from my mother that he never returned. Ultimately he stopped replying entirely and we had to look for a new accountant, several months after the filing deadline. I just got a notice that I owe several thousand dollars in late filing fees because it turns out he also lied about getting an extension. I don't know what is going on and while I wish Steven no ill will, please do not work with this firm or him. I don't want this to happen to anyone else.

Update 2/13: A partner at Capitol CPA reached out to me to apologize for the situation and explain…read morewhat happened. I was more than satisfied with their explanation and eagerness to earn my business and trust. I've taken them up on the offer to work with them so have updated the review initially and provide a final review once completed. ______________________________ Let me say the reason I reached out to Capitol CPA is because of their excellent reviews and they were my first pick. However, it's difficult to go with a company or trust them with your taxes when they can't even respond to you in a timely manner or at all. Let me detail my experience below: December 16, 2019: Send an inquiry through their website asking about availability for new clients. Receive a response from Steven that they're currently evaluating their capacity and will get back to me in a week. I respond immediately asking if I should follow up in a week or if they'll let me know? *CRICKETS* December 26, 2019: Ask for an update. Hear nothing, follow up with an inquiry through their website December 31, 2019: Receive a response from Steven apologizing for letting this slip through the cracks. They have room for new clients and ask for information. I respond an hour later with the information. *CRICKETS* January 19, 2019: Another follow up. Ask for an update. *CRICKETS* January 31, 2019: I give up. I reached out to three other companies and they immediately responded, asked for my tax information which I provided, and... immediately responded. So thank you Capitol CPA for wasting my time.

I would have rated you lower than a star if I could have. My…read moreexperience with this accounting office was extremely disappointing and frustrating. First, they charged me $250 for a basic filing service that most other professionals offer for around $100. Unfortunately, the inflated price did not come with better service -- quite the opposite. The office itself is filthy and poorly maintained, which should have been a red flag. The accountant simply gave me advice to handle my case with the Tax dept. that created serious issues for me and then completely disappeared. I tried to contact him more than 10 times over the course of 17 days with no response. My emails and messages were ignored until the deadline to submit my documents had already passed. Only after the deadline did the secretary message me saying I should solve my problems on my own -- because the accountant is on vacation. When I voiced my frustration about the lack of response, the secretary actually hung up on me. They were okay only until I made the payment -- after that, they acted like I no longer mattered. "the photo attached explains a lot." The accountant also carries himself with an arrogant, dismissive attitude -- as if he's doing clients a favor just by responding. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this level of unprofessionalism, neglect, and disrespect deserves to be called out. I would not recommend this office to anyone.

I've been working with Miller Musmar, CPAs for some time now, and I wanted to share my experience…read morefor anyone looking for accounting services in the area. From the beginning, the team at Miller Musmar has been professional and attentive. When I first reached out, I was dealing with some complicated tax issues that I'd been putting off, and I wasn't sure how to tackle them. They took the time to understand my situation thoroughly and explained everything in terms I could actually understand, which immediately put me at ease. What stands out most about working with Miller Musmar is their communication. I'm always kept informed about what's happening with my accounts and tax filings. They respond to emails and phone calls promptly, and they make sure I understand deadlines and what's needed from me well in advance. There's never any confusion about where things stand or what the next steps are. That level of clarity has been invaluable, especially during tax season when things can get hectic. The transparency they provide has also been impressive. They're upfront about costs from the start, so there are no surprise fees or unexpected charges down the line. They explain their billing clearly and I always feel like I'm getting fair value for the services provided. They've also been proactive about finding deductions and strategies that have saved me money, which shows they're genuinely looking out for my best interests rather than just processing paperwork. Their approach is efficient and thorough. They don't drag things out unnecessarily, but they also don't rush through important details. Everything gets done in a reasonable timeframe, and I've never felt like my work was being delayed or that the process was being stretched out for billing purposes. They're organized, detail-oriented, and they catch things that I would have missed on my own. What I appreciate most is that they take a collaborative approach. When decisions need to be made, they present options clearly and help me understand the implications of each choice. They never make me feel like I'm asking stupid questions, and they're patient in explaining complex tax matters. I feel like I'm part of the process rather than being kept in the dark. The team has also been flexible and accommodating when unexpected situations come up. Whether it's a last-minute question or a change in my financial situation, they've always been responsive and helpful in figuring out the best path forward. Working with Miller Musmar has made tax season and financial planning far less stressful than it used to be. Having someone I can trust to handle these important matters with competence and integrity gives me real peace of mind. If you're looking for a CPA firm that communicates well, operates with transparency, and genuinely works to help you navigate your financial responsibilities, I'd definitely recommend Miller Musmar, CPAs.

This firm is so incompetent it is borderline criminal. We fired them from bookkeeping, but kept…read morethem for tax prep. Here is how that went: In January, we had a tax planning meeting (seems a little late, but whatever). Their estimate of the income we would report for 2023 was off by 300%. That's 300% off what the same firm calculated two months later when they actually did the taxes. No new numbers came in, everything was available in mid January when they came up with the estimate. When they filed tax returns in April for our firm, they overstated our income on our state returns, apportioning 100% to each state we do business in, instead of proportional amounts. We overpaid our taxes by $100k, and only caught the mistake because *we* found it and pointed it out to them. It took MM over 48 hours to confirm the mistake that we pointed out to them. They then filed amended returns. We will eventually get that money back, but only because of our own diligence. Also...never so much as an apology or taking accountability for the massive mistake. I have another firm redoing our tax filings, to make sure no other mistakes were made. Expensive lesson.

But the whole experience was unprofessional and ultimately unhelpful when it came to doing our actual taxes. First, I didn't hear anything from them for a couple of weeks after our initial meeting. It required me following up to get an update. And then I had specifically asked for a heads up on whether we were likely to owe any taxes, since we were self-employed the past year and unclear whether we were paying sufficient estimated taxes. In the end, I got a response a couple of days before taxes were due to be filed with a report that we $12K in taxes. There was a potential to open an IRA to lowering our tax liability but with no guidance on how to do that and only 2 days to spare we just paid the bill. I would not recommend working with these folks. They seem like nice enough people but were either overwhelmed this tax season or understaffed.
