Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about taxes, bookkeeping, or running your business?
Here are answers to the most common questions we hear from business owners across Texas.
Do I need a CPA for my small business in Texas?
If you’re running a business in Texas, working with a CPA can save you time, reduce risk, and often lower your tax liability. While you can file taxes on your own, most business owners reach a point where compliance, deductions, and planning become too complex to manage confidently. A CPA helps ensure your books are accurate, your filings are correct, and your tax strategy is working for you—not against you.
What services does a CPA provide for small businesses?
At Garza Tax & Advisory, we provide end-to-end financial support for small businesses. That includes tax preparation, bookkeeping, tax planning, QuickBooks support, and business formation guidance. Our goal is to give you clarity on your numbers, keep you compliant, and help you make smarter financial decisions as your business grows.
What is the difference between bookkeeping, accounting, and tax planning?
Bookkeeping is the process of tracking your daily financial activity—income, expenses, and transactions. Accounting builds on that by organizing and interpreting your financial data so you understand your profitability and performance. Tax planning is the strategic side—looking ahead to reduce what you owe legally and structure your business in the most tax-efficient way possible. All three work together to support a healthy, growing business.
What tax filings do Texas small businesses need to handle?
Most Texas businesses must handle federal tax filings, and many are also required to file a Texas franchise tax report each year. Depending on your business type, you may also have payroll taxes, sales tax, and other compliance requirements. We help you stay on top of all required filings so nothing is missed and everything is submitted accurately and on time.
Do LLCs in Texas have to file franchise tax reports?
Yes, most LLCs operating in Texas are required to file an annual franchise tax report, even if no tax is owed. Filing requirements depend on your revenue and entity structure, but missing this step can lead to penalties or administrative issues. We make sure your filings are handled correctly and help you understand what applies to your specific business.
When should I switch from an LLC or sole proprietorship to an S corporation?
This typically becomes worth considering once your business is generating consistent profit beyond your salary needs. Electing S corporation status can offer tax advantages, particularly around self-employment taxes, but it must be set up and managed correctly. We evaluate your financials and help you determine if—and when—making the switch makes sense for your situation.
Do you provide QuickBooks setup, cleanup, and ongoing support?
Yes. We help businesses set up QuickBooks correctly from the start, clean up messy or inaccurate books, and provide ongoing support so your financial data stays reliable. Having clean, up-to-date books is critical—not just for taxes, but for making informed business decisions throughout the year.
Do you work with businesses in Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio remotely?
Absolutely. We serve clients across Austin, Dallas, and San Antonio, and we work efficiently with business owners both locally and remotely. With secure systems and streamlined processes, you get the same high level of service no matter where you’re located in Texas.
Can a CPA help reduce my business taxes legally?
Yes—this is one of the biggest reasons business owners work with us. Through proactive tax planning, we identify opportunities to reduce your tax burden using legal, IRS-compliant strategies. This includes optimizing your entity structure, timing income and expenses, and maximizing available deductions and credits.
How do I get started with Garza Tax & Advisory?
Getting started is simple. We begin with a conversation to understand your business, your goals, and your current setup. From there, we recommend the right services and outline a clear path forward. Whether you need help with taxes, bookkeeping, or long-term planning, we’ll meet you where you are and help you move forward with confidence.
