Working with Oakbrook Terrace businesses

It is a small city with a business population out of proportion to its size: professional offices, hospitality and service firms strung along the Butterfield and Roosevelt corridors, most of them owner-run.

Farris Fair is run by Latonia Farris-Jenkins, a Certified Public Bookkeeper, Advanced QuickBooks ProAdvisor and IRS licensed Enrolled Agent. That combination means a Oakbrook Terrace business gets its books kept and its return prepared by the same person, and has someone licensed to deal with the IRS directly if a notice ever arrives.

Questions

From Oakbrook Terrace business owners

Do I need to come to the office?

No. Being local, plenty of Oakbrook Terrace clients do drop in, but it is never required.

Do you understand the tax situation in DuPage County?

Yes. Farris Fair works on both sides of the DuPage and Cook County line and deals with the differences routinely. Municipal and county rates change, so current rates are confirmed against the Illinois Department of Revenue at the time of filing rather than quoted from memory.

My books are years behind. Will you still take it on?

Yes, and it is the most common reason people call. Cleanup is quoted as a fixed-price project before any work starts, so you know the cost of getting current before you commit to it.

Can you handle both my business and my personal return?

Yes. For most owner-run businesses the two are connected, and treating them separately is how things get missed. Latonia is an Enrolled Agent, so individual, business and non-profit returns are all handled in house.
