Let Me Tell You About Me →

Florida Home Field. Your Next Step.

Bring The Story
Behind The Numbers.

A life change, a business decision or an IRS concern. The initial tax consultation gives your organizer context and your next step a starting point.

  1. Tell Us What Changed.

    Complete the self-guided tax consultation at your pace. You can start without buying the Guide.

  2. Build A File You Can Use.

    Genesis gathers your intake facts and documents. Initial intake is open to everyone.

  3. Choose The Work You Need.

    Tax preparation, advisory, research and IRS representation have separate scopes. Verified Guide ownership is required for tax advisory conversations and written answers.

Federal Practice. Florida Context.

Florida Tax
Questions.

The facts about your move, business, family and property matter. Begin with a clearer picture.

Does Florida Have A Personal Income Tax?

Florida does not have a state personal income tax. Federal income tax obligations still apply. A move, income sourced to another state or property outside Florida can also create filing obligations elsewhere.

Read The Official Florida Guidance ↗
Can You Help If I Recently Moved To Florida?

Begin with the free initial tax consultation. Tell us when you moved, where your income came from, and whether you kept a business or property in another state. Those facts help define the work your file needs.

Can Florida Business Owners Work With The Firm?

Yes. The initial consultation is the doorway for tax preparation, tax planning and IRS resolution concerns. Business records and family facts belong in one coherent picture. The scope and fee for any paid work are agreed separately.

Do I Have To Buy The Guide To Start?

No. The initial tax consultation is free and open to guests. The Guide is the foundation we recommend from the start; verified ownership is required before tax advisory conversations and written answers.

How Does The Consultation Connect To Genesis?

The self-guided consultation explains your concerns and life changes. Genesis collects the intake facts and documents. Together, they give the firm context for reviewing your file. You can start intake without owning the Guide.

Is Tax Preparation Included In A Paid Call?

No. A calendar fee buys only a reserved 60-minute conversation to review information already collected, results and questions. Tax return preparation, research, written deliverables and representation require separate engagements.

Who Is Paul Diaz?

Paul D. Diaz, EA, MBA is an IRS Enrolled Agent, Admitted to Practice Before the Internal Revenue Service, with an MBA in Accounting. He is the founder of THE TAX CUTTERY® and author of the Guide.
