Qcpaccounting

The practice is explicit about what it is not: its people are enrolled agents rather than CPAs, a point it states plainly while noting that Treasury authorization allows enrolled agents to represent taxpayers in audits, collections and appeals at every administrative level of the IRS. Work spans the greater Los Angeles region and covers both sides of a client's paperwork — daily bookkeeping, payroll administration and small business accounting on one hand, tax preparation and tax planning on the other, with business formation for those starting out. Individuals come for tax help; companies come for ongoing financial management.

David Quimbayo, EA, came to accounting by an unusual route, taking a BA in History at Loyola Marymount University before going to UCLA for an accounting degree; he is working toward the CPA and runs a small business himself. The IRS register lists an EA credential for the practice.
