Real Client Case Study — Washington, D.C

Real Client Case Study — Irvine, CA

Client: J. L. — Senior Software Engineer, Cybersecurity Firm

Financial Mix: High W-2 income, significant RSU vesting, rental property in Northwood, and multi-state income from a previous remote contract.

Problem: J. L. was facing a large, unexpected tax bill due to incorrectly reporting the “sell-to-cover” portion of his RSU vesting and failing to properly allocate his multi-state income. His previous preparer missed over $15,000 in potential deductions.

What We Did:
• Reviewed and corrected the basis reporting for all RSU transactions, reclassifying short-term capital gains as ordinary income already taxed.
• Conducted a detailed analysis of his rental property expenses, identifying missed depreciation and maintenance deductions.
• Filed an amended return for the previous year, correctly allocating income between California and his former state of residence.
• Implemented a proactive estimated tax plan for the current year to avoid future underpayment penalties.

Result: $18,500 in total tax savings and refunds recovered over two years.

This case study highlights a common problem in Irvine: the intersection of complex equity compensation and multi-jurisdictional income. Our deep understanding of these specific issues allows us to find savings where generalist firms cannot. The high cost of living and premium real estate market in Irvine mean that every dollar saved in taxes has a significant impact on your net worth.
