Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about tax compliance, FIRPTA, ITIN, and our services.

Most small businesses file based on their structure: Single-member LLCs use Schedule C, while Corporations use Form 1120 or 1120S. We ensure your business complies with both IRS regulations and City of Tampa business tax requirements to avoid costly penalties.
FIRPTA requires a 15% withholding when a foreign person sells U.S. property. We specialize in preparing Form 8288 and applying for Withholding Certificates (Form 8288-B), which can reduce or eliminate this withholding based on the actual tax liability of the seller.
By using our services at CEV Taxes, you can verify your documents locally. As an IRS Certified Acceptance Agent team, we authenticate your foreign status in person, meaning you never have to risk losing your original passport in the mail.
Yes. Through our strategic alliance with 007 Tampa Livescan Fingerprint Corp, we offer a 'one-stop-shop' on Armenia Avenue. You can complete your professional licensing background checks and manage your corporate accounting in a single visit.
For the 2026 season, individual returns (Form 1040) are due April 15, 2026. Partnerships and S-Corps must file by March 16, 2026. Filing on time prevents daily interest accrual and late penalties, which can be substantial for corporate entities.
