When you become a client of Vast, it is synergistic to also roll in tax preparation so that planning can take place throughout the year to mitigate unpleasant surprises during tax time.

As a tax client of Vast, we can help you to plan for taxes throughout the year - making estimated payments or setting aside the right amounts to cover taxes at year end while also keeping an eye on ways to take the most deductions and be tax efficient.
