Important Note for CWA Tax Clients:
Your tax organizer(s) for your 2016 personal tax return(s) is now available on the CWA Client Portal under the Tax folder.
If CWA prepares your business tax return(s) but you do not utilize CWA accounting services, you will find the tax organizer(s) tool for your business return(s) as well. We encourage you to utilize the tax organizer(s) as a guide for information you will need to provide us in order to prepare your 2016 tax return(s). If you have any problems accessing your organizer(s) on the portal, please email tax@cainwatters.com.
If you are ready to send us information to begin preparing your tax return(s), please email tax@cainwatters.com or mail your information with attention to the CWA Tax Department.
