Tax Services
Most clients fall into one or two categories based on how they earn, invest, or move.
Below are the most common drivers of tax complexity.
Equity Compensation
RSUs · ISOs · ESPPs
We handle basis adjustments, AMT modeling, QSBS eligibility, and capital gains planning for stock comp events.
This is for you if:
You received a Form 3921
Your W-2 includes RSU income
You exercised ISOs or sold company stock
You’re approaching a startup exit
Crypto & DeFi
Trades · Staking · Airdrops · NFTs · DeFi activity
We reconcile wallet and exchange data, track cost basis, and prepare IRS Form 8949 and staking income reports.
This is for you if:
You had 50+ trades this year
You’ve used staking, yield farming, or DeFi platforms
You received tokens via airdrops or forks
You moved assets across wallets or exchanges
Remote & Multi-State
W-2 splits · Part-year residency · State sourcing
We handle part-year and non-resident returns, credit claims, and residency analysis for multi-state taxpayers.
This is for you if:
You moved during the year (e.g. NY → MA or MA → NH)
You live in a no-tax state but work for a MA employer
Your RSUs or bonus vested in a different state

Year-End Tax Moves for Equity, Crypto, and Remote Work
There’s still time to act before December 31 — but not much.
If 2025 brought any financial changes — like selling stock, exercising options, moving across state lines, or realizing crypto gains — you may still have ways to reduce what you owe. But many tax strategies have strict year-end deadlines.
Common Triggers That Warrant Action Now:
Stock option exercises or RSU vesting: AMT exposure, 83(b) timing, basis tracking — all time-sensitive.
Significant crypto gains or losses: Loss harvesting and accurate 8949 filing depend on correct year-end treatment.
Moved states or worked remotely across borders: Split residency, income sourcing, and tax credits all require advance planning.
Secondary sales or startup exit: QSBS eligibility, installment treatment, and timing of recognition can impact liability.
Capital gains from investments: Harvesting losses, estimated tax adjustments, and donation strategies are on the table.
