Tips for Hiring a CPA

So, you’re planning on hiring a CPA. Whether you just need someone to lend a little tax help, someone to set up your business payroll, or anything in between, it’s important that you are selective about whom you hire. Not only do you need someone you can trust, but you also need someone who knows the ins and outs of financial law and who will make your money work for you.

 One thing you should always ask any potential accountant is if he or she has a preparer tax identification number. This number is given to true CPAs by the federal government. It identifies the preparer as someone who has been trained and certified to prepare taxes professionally. Don’t trust any “accountant” who doesn’t have one of these numbers!

You should also quiz potential accountants on their working histories, their educational training, and other qualifications. Try to choose someone who has been working in the industry for at least a few years and who has been through rigorous training and schooling related to the field.


You deserve to know your money is safe, and the best way to get that peace of mind is to hire only the best CPA around.
