Frequently Asked Questions About Our Locations
Can a Texas CPA serve clients in other states?
Yes. CPAs can prepare tax returns and provide accounting services for clients in any state. The CPA license relates to where the firm is registered, not where clients are located. We serve clients in all 50 states with the same quality and responsiveness.
How does virtual CPA service work?
We connect to your cloud accounting software (QuickBooks Online, Xero), communicate via email, phone, and video calls, and share documents through our secure client portal. You get the same service as a local CPA — often with faster response times.
What if I have multi-state tax obligations?
We specialize in multi-state tax compliance. Whether you have nexus in multiple states, remote employees across state lines, or sales tax obligations, we help you stay compliant and minimize your overall tax burden.
How much does a virtual CPA cost?
Our pricing is based on your business complexity, not your location. Basic bookkeeping starts around $300–$500 per month. Full-service packages including bookkeeping, tax planning, and advisory typically range from $1,000–$2,000 per month with upfront estimates. View our pricing.
How quickly can you respond to questions?
We respond to all client inquiries within 1-2 business days. You’ll have direct access to your team members — not a call center.
Do you handle state-specific tax requirements?
Yes. We stay current on state tax laws, including income tax, sales tax, franchise tax, and industry-specific requirements. Whether you’re in a no-tax state like Florida or Texas, or a complex state like California or New York, we’ve got you covered.
What’s the difference between a local CPA and a virtual CPA?
The services are identical — tax returns, bookkeeping, and advisory. The difference is delivery: virtual CPAs use cloud software and video calls instead of in-person meetings. This often means faster turnaround and lower overhead costs passed to you.
Do I need a CPA in my state to file my taxes?
No. A licensed CPA can prepare and file tax returns for clients in any state. You do not need a locally licensed CPA. SDO CPA is licensed in Texas and serves clients in all 50 states.
