WHY WASHINGTON TRUSTS OUR TAX PREPARERS

- High concentrations of high-income tech workers
- Massive amounts of equity compensation (RSUs, ISOs, ESPPs)
- A booming remote worker population
- Large volumes of multi-state income
- A strong community of real estate investors
- A significant international workforce (H1B, TN, O1, L1, OPT)
- Complex startup, VC, and PE ecosystems
- Multi-LLC investor structures
