Minot Tax Preparation Services
Expert Tax Support for Minot’s Military Households, Contractors, Energy Workers, Healthcare Staff, Remote Employees, Investors & Local Business Owners
Minot has one of the most specialized and high-variance tax landscapes in North Dakota. Defined by the major presence of Minot Air Force Base, a significant energy and oilfield workforce, strong healthcare employment, long-standing construction and contracting industries, surrounding ranching and agricultural activity, and a rising number of remote workers, Minot residents almost never have a simple, single-source return.
Most Minot households are managing complex income combinations, including:
● Military W-2s with PCS considerations and multi-state filing rules
● Energy-sector W-2s + per diem + overtime
● Contractor/1099 income in trades, construction, trucking & consulting
● Healthcare W-2s with shift differential
● Remote-worker income from MN, CO, WA, TX, CA & nationwide companies
● STR/LTR rentals in Southwest Minot, Northwest Minot, Eastwood Park & surrounding neighborhoods
● Ranch/agriculture income from rural Ward County
● Multi-W-2 household structures
● K-1 distributions from partnerships or land investments
● Capital gains from ND/MN property sales
● Pension + SSA integration
● IRS notices from military, rental or multi-state errors
Minot residents need a tax team with mastery over military tax law, energy-sector compensation, contractor frameworks, rental depreciation, remote-worker payroll sourcing, ranch deductions & North Dakota-specific rules.
This is a city where expertise directly translates into savings.
