Frequently asked questions

No. SolutionHub is a bookkeeping and tax firm, not a CPA firm. Our Managing Partner, Fatih Baysal, holds a PTIN, the IRS number every paid tax return preparer must have, and is an IRS-authorized Certifying Acceptance Agent for ITIN applications. We prepare returns and answer IRS and state letters, but we do not represent clients in IRS audits, appeals or collections. If your case needs that, we tell you at the start.

We handle three areas: bookkeeping (monthly books, catch-up work, QuickBooks cleanup and setup, payroll, 1099s and New Jersey sales tax), tax (individual and business returns, nonresident returns, Form 5472, tax planning and IRS notices) and business formation (LLCs and corporations, EIN, S Corp election and annual reports). Most clients use more than one, so the same team carries your company from formation to its yearly tax return.

No. You can meet us at our office in Rochelle Park, New Jersey, by appointment, we can come to your business, or we can meet by video on Zoom or Google Meet. Many clients never visit in person: documents are shared electronically, and your specialist answers questions by phone, email or WhatsApp. Choose whatever is easiest for you.

Yes. We work with founders and LLC owners who live outside the U.S., including many in Turkey. We schedule calls at times that suit Turkey time, collect documents electronically and send everything for review before it is filed. Fees are agreed in U.S. dollars before work starts, so you know the cost in advance.

Yes. Our team works in English and Turkish. You can speak with your specialist in Turkish, while filings with the IRS and state agencies are prepared in English, as required. We explain each form and letter in the language you prefer, so you understand what you are signing and why.

If you have more than a handful of transactions a month, employees, sales tax or a loan, usually yes. The IRS expects records that support every item on your tax return, and banks and buyers ask for reliable financial statements. A bookkeeper keeps those records current, so tax season is a review rather than a rebuild. Very small sole proprietors sometimes manage alone with good software.

A bookkeeper records income and expenses, categorizes transactions, reconciles bank and credit card accounts to their statements, and prepares a profit and loss statement and balance sheet each month or quarter. Depending on your needs, the work can also cover payroll, 1099 forms for contractors and sales tax returns. The result is books your tax preparer can use without corrections.

Yes. If months were never recorded, catch-up bookkeeping rebuilds them from bank statements and receipts. If the records exist but are wrong, a QuickBooks cleanup reconciles the accounts and fixes duplicates and categories. We review the file first and tell you which one you need. We focus on recent years; very old backlogs we may decline.

Ask who will actually do your work and review it, whether they have a PTIN if they prepare returns, which software they use, how they handle your documents, how quickly they reply, and how fees are set. Also ask what they do not handle, such as audit representation. A good firm answers these plainly in the first call.

For a personal return, the IRS lists identification numbers (SSN or ITIN) for you and your dependents, last year's return, income forms such as W-2s and 1099s, and records for deductions and credits. Business owners add a profit and loss statement and balance sheet, payroll reports and records of large purchases. We send you a checklist for your situation.

Yes. We read the notice, check it against your return and records, explain what it means and prepare the response or the corrected or missing return. Many letters are resolved this way. If the matter turns into an audit, appeal or collection case that requires a representative, we tell you so you can bring in a licensed representative.

Yes, this is one of our main areas. Nonresident aliens with a U.S. trade or business usually file Form 1040-NR. A foreign-owned single-member LLC generally files Form 5472 with a pro forma Form 1120 each year, even if it had little activity; the IRS penalty for not filing Form 5472 is currently $25,000. We prepare both.

Yes. You do not need to be a U.S. citizen or resident to own a U.S. LLC. We prepare the formation filing in the state you choose, usually New Jersey, Delaware or Wyoming, help with the registered agent requirement, and apply for the EIN. Without an SSN or ITIN, the EIN is requested by fax, mail or phone instead of online.

A Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA) is authorized by the IRS to help complete Form W-7 and to authenticate identity documents such as passports. Because the CAA verifies and returns the documents, most applicants do not have to mail their original passport to the IRS. Fatih Baysal is an IRS-authorized CAA, so we handle ITIN applications in-house.

We do not sell preset packages. Every fee is quoted individually after a free review of your situation. For bookkeeping, the quote depends mainly on monthly transaction volume, the number of bank and card accounts and how often you need reports. For tax and formation work, it depends on the forms and states involved. You agree to the fee before any work starts.

Yes. The first consultation takes 15 to 30 minutes and costs nothing. We listen to what you need, look at your situation and tell you honestly whether we are the right fit. If you go ahead, new clients get 10% off their first engagement. There is no obligation to hire us after the call.

Send us a message through the contact form, call or WhatsApp +1 (201) 748-9486, or email info@solutionhub.us. We reply to new requests on the same business day and set up your free consultation. After the call, you receive a quote and a short list of the documents we need, and work begins once you approve it.

Bookkeeping questions and tax answers in one place

These are the questions we hear most often from small business owners, freelancers and founders who are new to the U.S. system. The answers are general. Your situation may be different, so treat them as a starting point and ask us about your case in a free call.

Bookkeeping

Our bookkeeping services keep your books current every month. If you are behind, catch-up bookkeeping fills the missing months, and a QuickBooks cleanup fixes records that were entered wrong. We also run payroll and New Jersey sales tax filings.

Tax returns and IRS letters

See our tax services for the full list, including individual tax preparation for business owners and the self-employed, business tax returns for LLCs and corporations, the nonresident tax return (Form 1040-NR) and help with back taxes and IRS notices. The IRS page on choosing a tax professional explains the different preparer credentials.

Company formation, EIN and ITIN

Our business formation services cover LLCs and corporations, including NJ LLC formation and the EIN application. For founders abroad, start with our page on foreign-owned LLCs, then the ITIN application and Form 5472 filing. The IRS describes what a Certifying Acceptance Agent does in its Acceptance Agent Program overview.
