Welcome, New Client

You're in good hands. Before we dive in, this page walks you through everything we need from you and everything we'll be doing for you throughout the year.

Welcome to Custom Accounting Solutions

A Personal Welcome from George Wood, CPA

Action required

What we need from you

To get your account set up correctly and start working on your behalf, we need a few things from you. Here's exactly what to do and why each item matters.

3 steps to complete

1. Accept your TaxDome invitation

2. Upload your prior 2 years of tax returns

3. Invite CAS as your accountant in QuickBooks Online

1

CHECK YOUR INBOX

Accept your TaxDome invitation

Check your inbox (and spam folder) for a TaxDome invite from CAS. You'll receive two separate invites — one for your Business portal and one for your Personal portal. Create your password and log in to both. Can't find the email? Let us know and we'll resend it.

Why this matters: TaxDome is our secure, encrypted document hub. Email and text are not safe ways to share sensitive financial information. Your tax documents, returns, and e-signatures are all handled through TaxDome so everything stays protected, organized, and in one place.

2

DOCUMENT UPLOAD

Upload your prior 2 years of tax returns

Once inside TaxDome, go to Documents in the left sidebar and upload your two most recently filed tax returns — both business and personal. If you have both, upload all four documents.

Why this matters: Your prior returns are the foundation of everything we do. They show us your historical filing positions, any carry-forwards, depreciation schedules, and prior-year elections that directly affect your current-year strategy. Without them, we're working blind.

QUICKBOOKS ONLINE

Invite CAS as your accountant in QuickBooks Online

In your QuickBooks Online account, invite us as your Accountant user — not Admin. This is a critical distinction: Accountant access gives us what we need to do our work without changing your company's ownership or billing settings.

Why this matters: Without QBO access we can't see your transactions, run reports, or reconcile your books. Inviting us as Accountant (not Admin) is also best practice — it keeps your account ownership secure while giving us the professional access level designed for your CPA.
