Why Choose a Local Enrolled Agent?
When it comes to your financial security, the credentials of your advisor matter. Petra Watts is a federally authorized Enrolled Agent (EA), the highest credential awarded by the IRS.
Unlike seasonal tax preparers or faceless national chains, an Enrolled Agent has unlimited practice rights to represent taxpayers before the IRS. Choosing a local EA means you get the accessible service of a neighbor combined with the highest level of federal tax authority.

Answers to common financial and tax questions from our Arvada clients.
Do I need to visit your office, or do you operate virtually?
While we are located just a short drive up Wadsworth Blvd, we operate using a highly secure digital portal. As one of the top virtual bookkeeping companies serving the North Denver Metro, you don't need to sit in traffic to deliver your documents.

Can you help me figure out my business deductions and entity structure?
Absolutely. We specialize in finding every legal tax write-off for business owners. We will review your current financial structure to maximize your sole proprietorship tax deductions and help you determine if transitioning to an S Corp for small business will save you money on self-employment taxes as your revenue grows.
What should I do if I owe the IRS and can't pay?
If you are stressed because you owe the IRS and can't pay, do not ignore the notices—the penalties will only multiply. As an Enrolled Agent, Petra Watts provides immediate IRS help for back taxes. We step in to protect you by communicating directly with the agency and negotiating IRS debt to set up a manageable installment agreement or Offer in Compromise.
Do you prepare taxes for freelancers and independent contractors?
Yes! If you are looking for a reliable 1099 tax preparer near you, we have you covered. We ensure independent contractors, gig workers, and tradesmen in Arvada stay fully compliant, pay the correct quarterly estimated taxes, and track their expenses properly to avoid end-of-year surprises.
