Maco & Associates is a one-stop shop for all your Individual Tax Preparation and Consultation needs. We prepare taxes of varying complexities for our clients, who include college students, self-employed individuals, retirees, the elderly, and everyone in between. We do not merely enter your data into a program – we treat you as a human being; not a file or a number. We strive to make sense of the numbers for you!
What sets us apart is our desire to save you money on your taxes. We always ask questions to ensure that every deduction that can legally be taken is presented to you. We pride ourselves on our quality and accuracy, but we are also very creative – we find Tax Minimization Strategies that other firms miss or don’t take the time to tell their clients.
Our business has the strength of our varied client base. Because we've had clients in every industry and every stage of life across the U.S., we really are tax experts, and our clients agree. Our annual Customer Satisfaction Survey revealed in 2009 that our clients rate us highest for our integrity and our knowledgeable staff. We can handle situations including:
- Capital Gains & Losses (Sch. D)
- Profit/Loss from a Business (Sch. C)
- Supplemental Income or Loss (Sch. E)
- Pass-Through Income from a Business (Sch. K-1)
- Self-Employment Taxes (Sch. SE)
- Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT)
- Recovery Rebate Credits
- Tax Incentives for Higher Education

Additional benefits of working with Maco & Associates:
- We are available year-round to discuss tax issues that may come up unexpectedly. You need not wait for Tax Season to discuss the ramifications of a financial decision; a tax consultation appointment can be made at any time.
We offer electronic filing of Federal and State returns free of charge.- If you're located outside of Pennsylvania, no problem! We have clients across the U.S. We not only can prepare the returns remotely, but can consult remotely as well.
We offer Audit Shield protection, meaning that if we make a mistake, your penalties and interest or additional taxes assessed by the IRS (up to $2,500) will be paid directly to the taxing authority. Schedule C, E, and F clients are ineligible, as well as those who do not electronically file.- We provide your tax return in paper form, electronic PDF form, or on a CD.
- We provide tax tools to help you throughout the year. Check out our Tax Organizer [PDF] to get you thinking about your past year's finances.
- We provide our clients with helpful tips throughout the year, from our Tax Tips Newsletter to digital tax updates via email to articles of interest on our blog.
- We keep our clients' tax records secure and private.
Maco & Associates strives to find a place in the heart and mind of every client we serve. We know that individual tax returns can be a tough to tackle alone, but we are available to help at any time. We like to think that we provide more than the standard tax preparation service; we make sense of your numbers!
