Tax Accountant Gold Coast
Can anyone recommend a decent tax accountant on the Gold Coast? Last year I did my own return as a casual employee & did ok out of it but since then I've become self-employed and need someone to work their 'magic' on my tax so I can afford our Thailand wedding next year!
Any ideas folks?
Ta,

We use the one in Oxenford just across the roundabout from Woolies, next to an ink refill shop. Sorry I can't think of his name right now.

Don't use H&R Block, apart from that not much idea. PM Shiels, she used one last year and was pleased with them but I think they are in Burleigh so I don't know if that's too far down for you.

Whats wrong with H@R Block, I have used them for the last 4 years and found them very good, no problems whatsoever.
I got very good refunds through them every year

Re: Tax Accountant Gold Coast
Everyone I've spoken to without exception (until you) have advised to steer clear and believe me I've asked a lot of people over the past few years. Not going into details - may be libelous but not getting returns in on time, not claiming for basic things they should do, when having all the information etc etc etc. If you've had good service then that's good to know.
