My name is Bonnie Nixon Torrance, CA

10/15/2007 - DEADLINE WITH EXTENSIONS - ABSOLUTE LAST DAY TO FILE 2006 TAXES WITHOUT A PENALTY

The deadline is coming fast. Get your 2006 return filed ASAP.

I am a Licensed Tax Preparer in Torrance, California. I offer a full range of tax preparation services including federal, all states, electronic filing for same and refund anticipation loans. I can even efile if you owe money, and they will debit your account.
You will find that my fees are very competitive and my service is fast and friendly. Why go to the big guys and pay double? I prepare your 1040A or 1040EZ for $85 which INCLUDES efiling. In California, H&R Block charges that much for efiling alone. Refund anticipation loans are extra, depending on the amount of your refund. I use Bank One for this service. Bank One does charge interest for advancing you money against your refund.
I am conveniently located at 23024 Crenshaw Blvd, Torrance, CA 90505, 6 Blocks south of Sepulveda.
