    My 2023 Tax Return
    Mark H.

    ROBERT HALL FOUND TAX SAVINGS PREVIOUS ACCOUNTANTS MISSED & THEN DESIGNED FUTURE FINANCE STRUCTURES TO MINIMIZE TAXATION After we retired to California we looked for an accounting company to educate us about California before during and after buying a new home here. We were fortunate to hear about Robert Hall and their free tax consultation. The valuable information we received from John Goshima convinced us that Robert Hall would help us deal with "high state taxation". When we reviewed our previous New Jersey and Massachusetts taxes John found several missed opportunities several of which could be recovered. We spoke to him about renting our condo and he outlined the benefits and protection of establishing an LLC. A year later we are enacting that advice. With Robert Hall we feel confident that their team of experts, like John in particular, have the knowledge help us pay what we owe, and plan towards future years when our income is less diversified but also, minimized.

    Examples of who they work for.

    We have been going to Robert Hall and Associates for 15 years now. They operate in the realm of the tax world that can only help you to get through the perilous time every year that you get your paperwork together to play with or not the Feds and the state. This year like several in the past we were under the stewardship of John Goshima. As per usual John was his usual friendly and helpful self. The problem I had was waiting for the necessary 1099's from the establishments that we had accounts with. I believe they are held to the time of end of January to send 1099's out to their customers. But don't hold your breath if they dawdle around and exceed that deadline. We had to wait a week before getting all the 1099's we needed to finish our taxes for last year. After several calls to the errant institutions we were ready to roll. We had an early appointment with John and his work was all neatly set up and ready to finish for our refunds. John then instructed my wife over the phone on how to scan the errant 1099.Like a well oiled machine John turned in the finished returns to the capable and very sweet Karen Baker who sent the returns in electronically and now we patiently await our refunds. The overall view of Robert Hall, by the way a name I despised while attending school and had to listen to commercials about a clothier company with same name touting the end of summer and time to buy for back to school with Robert Hall. I love this Robert Hall due to the consistent results that through their own due diligence bring to us. Also the professional people in every capacity that work there is truly matched by their friendly and cheerful energy. I also appreciate the bowls of candy in the entry way. Tax time can be gruelling and filled with apprehension but Robert Hall and Associates always give us the results we hope for along with their professional and friendly manner. I recommend Robert Hall to big business, as well as smaller individual accounts like us. We always have a good experience with them.

But this past tax season she took 8 months to complete the work, and then I got concerned as I was receiving additional amounts required from state tax and IRS offices. I contacted Osheen's Taxes. They set up an appointment for me very quickly. I met with Hasmik. She looked over the tax forms and also looked at the three different monetary requests made. She cleared up my confusion very quickly. She eased my anxiety, and didn't charge me a dime. We spoke of 2025 taxes. My parents had both died in 2023 and so I'm completing some of the fine print of their estate and living trusts. She showed interest and is going to look into information on this. My longtime tax accountant had not. I've been given a guarantee of one week from turning in all the paperwork to being ready to file.

Unprofessional treatment and horrible services which includes refusing to answer my phone calls, emails, and in-person contact. Background: I paid for my 2023 Tax Return and Jack electronically filed my 2023 Tax Return on March 15, 2024. As of October 4, 2024, I have not received my refund. Eventually after many failed attempts to reach Jack, including visiting his office, and calling his office multiple times, when he answered the phone he did not tell me the reason as to what the issue is. Only that since this electronic file "failed", Jack would "mail" the tax return. On July 8, 2024, Jack told me he "mailed it" but refused to provide any tracking number. However, as of October 4, 2024, the IRS has no record of any sort of "mailed tax return". As of today, any attempt to contact Jack or his office fails. I have filed my taxes for years and have never had any issues before. This is a horrible experience and I urge you to reconsider Jack and H & A Tax Services for your tax filing purposes. I now have to pay out of pocket a second time for a more competent tax specialist to re-file my 2023 taxes and deal with penalties for the failed filing by Jack. Jack has refused to refund me for this inconvenience.
