Question 1

What is the difference between tax preparation and tax planning?

Accepted Answer

Tax preparation files the return for a year that has already happened. Tax planning works year-round on entity structure, reasonable compensation, retirement strategies and quarterly estimates to lower what you owe before the year ends. JAO Services does both.

Question 2

Do you work with convenience stores?

Accepted Answer

Yes. JAO Services handles monthly bookkeeping and payroll for 130+ convenience stores across Florida, including lottery and money-order reconciliation, fuel and tobacco inventory, and Florida sales tax on mixed taxable and non-taxable sales.

Question 3

Do you handle Florida sales tax filings?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We register, file and monitor Florida sales tax returns on monthly or quarterly schedules so filings are in before the 20th and penalties are avoided.
