Everything you need to know about creator taxes and our services.

All of them. YouTube, Twitch, TikTok, Instagram, Patreon, OnlyFans, Kick, and more. We also handle UGC creator income, affiliate marketing, sponsorships, merch sales, and any other creator income stream you might have.

Those tools are built for W-2 employees with simple tax situations. As a creator, you have multiple income streams, complex deductions, and platform-specific issues they don't understand. We specialize in creator taxes — we know your platforms, your income types, and your deductions inside and out.

No judgment here — we've helped plenty of creators catch up on 2, 3, even 5+ years of unfiled returns. We'll work through everything methodically, handle any IRS communications, and get you completely current. It's usually not as scary as you think.

Not at all. Many creators start as sole proprietors and that's completely fine. We can help you file whether you have an LLC, S-Corp, or no business entity at all. We can also advise if it makes sense to set one up based on your income level.

Creator-specific deductions include: camera equipment, lighting, microphones, computer hardware, software subscriptions, home office space, internet (business portion), props and backdrops, travel for content creation, gaming equipment, studio rent, editing services, and much more. We track over 100 creator-specific deductions.

For a typical creator tax return, expect 1-2 weeks from when we have all your documents. Complex situations (multiple years, amendments, messy records) may take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline during our initial call.

Pricing varies based on the complexity of your tax situation — number of platforms, business entities, whether you need amendments or back taxes filed, etc. We'll give you a clear quote after your free review call so there are no surprises. Most creator returns range from $500-$1,500.

Yes! If your previous accountant missed deductions or made errors, we can file amended returns for up to 3 years back. This often results in refunds that more than cover our fees.
