Anchorage Tax Preparation Services
Strategic, Accurate Tax Support for Anchorage’s Oil & Gas Workforce, Federal Employees, Military Families, Contractors & Investors
Anchorage has one of the most unique taxpayer profiles in the United States — a mix of oil & gas industry professionals, federal employees, military service members, contractors, healthcare workers, Alaska Natives with AFN distributions, real estate investors, and self-employed residents working in extreme seasonal cycles.
Because Alaska has no state income tax, most Anchorage residents assume their taxes should be simple — but they’re not.
Anchorage taxpayers frequently juggle:
- Multiple W-2s from oil, engineering, or rotating shifts
- Seasonal income patterns
- Slope rotations (14/14, 21/21)
- Military pay from JBER
- Federal civilian employment
- High per diem & travel reimbursements
- 1099 contracting income
- Rental properties (long-term + Airbnbs)
- Capital gains from real estate or investments
- AFN / Native corporation dividends
- Out-of-state employer withholding
- Multi-year stock vesting
Most of these create federal tax complexity, and many residents overpay simply because their preparer doesn’t understand Alaska’s income structure.
Anchorage’s taxpayer landscape includes:
- Oil & gas industry workers (BP, ConocoPhillips, Hilcorp)
- Petroleum engineers & geologists
- JBER military personnel & veterans
- Federal agency employees (FAA, TSA, DOI, USFS, VA)
- Healthcare professionals (Providence, ANMC)
- Aviation workers & pilots
- Contractors & trades
- Real estate investors
- Small business owners
- Alaska Native corporation shareholders
- High per diem rules
- Rotational income
- Seasonal unemployment + W-2 blending
- Complex business deductions
- STR/LTR depreciation
- Multi-state stock compensation
- AFN dividend tax considerations
- Estimated taxes
