Our Story
2018 — IQ Tax began as a traditional tax preparation practice. As client needs changed, we pivoted to focus on Tax Representation & Resolution—work that demands deeper advocacy, negotiation, and compliance support.
Today, representation is our core: we help clients respond to notices, stop enforcement, and move forward with confidence.
