Engagement terms
1. Who we are
Federal Returns is operated by TMMT NM LLC, 1209 Mountain Road Pl NE, Ste N, Albuquerque, NM 87110, United States. Email: info@federalreturns.com. Returns are prepared by Matthias A. Will, a PTIN holder.
2. What we do
We prepare and file individual United States federal returns and reports, one filing at a time: Form 5472, FinCEN Form 114 (FBAR), Form 1065, Form 1120, Form 1040-NR, and extensions on Form 7004 and Form 4868. We sell single filings, not packages and not subscriptions. Form 5472 and FBAR are also sold as a bundle.
3. What the price covers
One price covers one form, one tax year, and the standard scope stated on the site. For Form 5472, the standard scope is one related party; a filing with more than one related party is priced by quote before you pay. For FBAR, the standard scope is one filer and one calendar year. For Form 1065, the online price covers up to two partners; more partners are priced by quote. For Form 1040-NR, the scope is confirmed case by case, and we confirm the price before you pay if your case falls outside the standard scope. Consolidated groups, foreign tax credit claims, and prior year amendments are priced by quote.
4. Regular and express
Regular service has no fixed turnaround. We work first in, first out, and we submit before the due date or we decline the job. Express service means we prepare your filing within two business days after we have received complete information from you. The two days cover preparation only. Your electronic signature, our submission, and our confirmation to you take place after that window.
5. What we need from you
You provide complete and accurate information and documents, and you answer our questions in time for the due date. If information arrives late or incomplete, we pause the work and ask for what is missing. The express clock runs only after complete information has arrived.
6. Review and approval before filing
We send you the prepared filing to sign electronically. Your electronic signature constitutes your approval to file, and we submit the filing only after we have received it. If you find an error in the draft, tell us before you sign it and we correct it.
7. Fees and payment
The price shown at the time of order applies. Payment is made in full before work starts, by card through our secure payment page. There are no hidden fees. Quote based services are priced before you pay, and the quoted price is the price you pay.
8. Documents and security
Never send tax identification numbers, bank details, or identity documents by email or through the payment page. We collect sensitive information only through our secure intake, and the welcome email after payment explains how. We keep copies of prepared filings and supporting records for the period required by law.
9. What we do not do
We prepare and file the returns listed above. We do not provide legal advice, audit representation, or tax planning advice, and we do not represent you before the IRS or FinCEN. If your case needs specialist work outside our scope, we tell you before you pay, and we route it to a partner or refund the fee.
10. Liability
If we make an error in a filing we prepared, we correct it at no extra charge. Our total liability for any order is limited to the fee you paid for that order. We are not liable for penalties or interest that result from information you provided late, incompletely, or incorrectly, or from a due date that could not be met because information arrived too late.
11. Changes and governing law
These terms apply in the version in force when you place your order. They are governed by the laws of the State of New Mexico, United States. These terms are published in English, German, and Spanish. In case of ambiguity or conflict between versions, the English version is binding.
