I think you probably realize that last Monday was the final deadline for 2021 taxes, and we can now (finally) put those returns to bed.Or can we?Frankly, with a number of our new Redding clients this past year, we reviewed returns prepared via software and/or other...

Now that 2021 tax returns are completely in the rearview (although we can always make amendments!), and only a few months of the 2022 version remain, it’s time to kick your “tax optimization” strategies into full gear. And look – yes, I’m a professional at this...

One of the things that my team and I prioritize here at Dennis Fritz CPA is keeping the lines of communication open with our Redding clients. Especially when difficult times hit (we’re continuing to think about those in Florida and the Carolinas as they process and...

The devastating images and clips from the aftermath of Hurricane Ian rolling through the news feeds are truly heartbreaking. It’s incredibly difficult to watch the crippling effects of situations like these. All of us here at Dennis Fritz CPA send our thoughts and...
