Tax Preparation & Compliance

Busy season capacity you can switch on. We prepare, you review and sign.

Tax season rarely fails because of talent. It fails because preparation hours compress into a few short months while partner review time stays constant. Globex adds elastic preparation capacity so your partners spend their time on review, planning and client conversations.

We prepare inside your tax software under your firm's master file, follow your workpaper indexing and your tick-mark conventions, and return a file your reviewer can open without translation. Open points come back as a structured query sheet rather than scattered emails.

Season model

Capacity is reserved ahead of the season. You tell us expected return volumes by form type, we lock the headcount, and we run a calibration batch before live work begins so the team is already matched to your standard.

Scope

What this practice actually covers.

US federal and state returns

Forms 1040, 1041, 1065, 1120, 1120-S and 990, with multi-state apportionment and K-1 packages.

UK, Canada and Australia

SA100, SA800, CT600, T1, T2 and Australian ITR and BAS prepared to local standards.

Workpaper preparation

Indexed, cross referenced lead schedules built the way your reviewers expect to find them.

Extension and estimate management

Extension batches, quarterly estimates and safe harbour calculations tracked on a shared board.

Notice and amendment support

Tax authority notice responses drafted, amended returns prepared and tracked to resolution.

Structured review queries

One query sheet per return, answered inline and versioned, instead of a mail thread nobody can audit.

Onboarding

How this engagement gets off the ground.

01

Discovery and scoping

A working session rather than a sales call. We map your current workflow, volumes, software, review standards and the specific bottleneck you want gone.

02

Role design and costing

You receive a written role scorecard, team structure, shift plan and a transparent monthly cost with nothing hidden below the line.

03

Sourcing and your interviews

We screen for technical skill, communication and culture, then present a shortlist per role. You interview. You decide. Nobody is placed without your approval.

04

Secure onboarding

Access provisioning under your IT policy, confidentiality agreements, security training, software certification and a documented calibration batch before any live file is touched.

05

Go live and parallel run

The first period runs in parallel with your existing process. Output is compared, gaps are closed, and handover completes only when your reviewer signs off.

06

Manage, review and scale

A named practice manager, a monthly service review against agreed service levels, quarterly capacity planning and a backfill commitment written into the contract.

Questions

About tax prep, specifically.

Anything not covered here gets a direct answer within one business day, from the practice lead rather than a sales desk.

Preparers work on locked down virtual desktops with no local storage, no removable media, no printing and no personal device access. Sessions are logged and the logs can be made available to your IT team.
Turnaround is agreed per form type during scoping and written into the engagement, rather than quoted as a blanket figure. Simple individual returns move fastest; consolidated corporate returns with multi-state apportionment take longest.
Yes, though the calibration batch compresses. Firms that onboard late usually start with extensions and simpler returns while calibration completes.
