Welcome! Thank you for stopping by!

Welcome back! We are grateful for your continued patronage and look forward to serving you again with the service you deserve from the Peace Team you trust ☮

The IRS will not be accepting e-filed returns until January 29, 2023. 

For this upcoming tax season, we will be having limited in-person appointments due to the rise in RSV and other illnesses in an attempt to stay well to the due date of April 15^th. We appreciate your willingness to join us in this endeavor.  Taking limited in-person appts by request only. 

Office hours: During tax season Mon – Fri 9 am – 5 pm, Sat 9 – 3.

We will close from 4/16 – 4/30 and will reopen 5/1 with non-tax season hours May through December: Tues Wed Thurs 10 am – 4 pm.

Note: If you are new to our office this year, please include a copy of your prior year return with your information.

For all and for those who do not want to come in person, you have a few options:

• As always, we will still accept drop offs to the office or through the mail slot in the East back door
• You can mail in your data to the address below
• Share your data with us via secure document sharing via our online Portal. Please call the office with your name and preferred email address to request an activation email be sent to you. You will then be able to message us, and share documents securely thus replacing unsecure email or fax.

Need more time to file? If you know you will need an extension, federal and IL extension forms will be available at the office to pick up copies (links shared below to print off) to mail by 4/15/2024 for a 6-month filing extension to 10/15/2024. FYI: the extension only gives more time to file, not to pay. If you have a balance due or expect to owe, you will need to send $ with the extension forms to avoid a late payment penalty, as payments are due by the 4/15 filing date (IL also.) IL extension is automatic if filing for a federal extension. The IL extension form is ONLY needed if mailing in a payment to offset potential tax due.

We are always accepting “drop off” tax returns, if an in-person appt is not desired or needed.  Please visit the office for a short drop-off form to complete, alerting us of any changes, as you drop off your data. You will be notified when your return is complete, followed by a short meeting to answer any questions, if desired. For mailed in data, please include your name, contact phone #, best times to reach you, and preferred preparer’s name on top of your data. If you are in no hurry, please let us know when you provide your data. We will contact you when they are ready to finalize questions and arrange for e-file signatures, payment and pick up.

Alert: Marissa is no longer employed by Accounting Peace. For those of you she has solicited, our office has your prior year(s) data safely encrypted, private and secure ready to seamlessly continue your tax preparation with the service and care you have come to expect from our office.

I appreciate each and every one of you, and we will do our best to continue providing the same care and concern this year, and every year, that you know us for.
