September 2, 2022 | 50,00 EUR | answered by Ingo Koch
Dear tax consultant,
my name is Emilia Waldmüller and I am currently dealing with the topic of tax consultant costs. As a self-employed individual, I have to submit my tax returns regularly and want to do so as efficiently as possible.
I have heard that there is the option of an online consultation with a tax consultant and I am wondering what advantages this type of consultation could offer me. So far, I have always discussed my tax matters in person, which often involved a high amount of time. Therefore, I am very interested in the option to be able to clarify my questions and concerns comfortably from home.
I am concerned whether an online consultation can be as effective and personal as an in-person meeting. Is there also the possibility in digital consultation to securely and confidentially transmit my documents? And how is the availability of a tax consultant in an online consultation compared to a traditional in-person appointment?
Could you please explain to me what specific advantages an online consultation offers and how I could benefit from it? I would be very grateful for your expertise and assessment on this topic.
Thank you in advance for your help and support.
Sincerely,
Emilia Waldmüller
Dear Mrs. Waldmüller,
Thank you for your inquiry regarding tax advisor fees and the possibility of an online consultation. My name is Ingo Koch and I am happy to assist you with your questions.
An online consultation with a tax advisor does indeed offer a variety of benefits that can help you manage your tax matters more efficiently and conveniently. Firstly, you save yourself the time-consuming trip to a personal appointment. You can easily communicate with your tax advisor from the comfort of your home or office, saving you time and stress.
Regarding the effectiveness and personal touch of an online consultation compared to an in-person meeting, I can assure you that even in the digital consultation setting, an intensive and personal consultation is guaranteed. You can ask your questions, discuss your concerns, and receive advice as if you were physically in your tax advisor's office. Technology allows for real-time conversations to ensure direct and effective communication.
As for the security and confidentiality of your documents, professional tax advisors typically offer secure online platforms or encrypted email services through which you can safely transmit your documents. It is important to choose a tax advisor who upholds high standards in data protection and security.
The availability of a tax advisor in an online consultation may vary depending on the provider, but typically tax advisors offer flexible appointments to meet their clients' needs. Therefore, you can usually schedule an online consultation appointment promptly without having to endure long waiting times.
In summary, an online consultation with a tax advisor offers many advantages, including time savings, flexibility, security, and effectiveness. You can manage your tax matters comfortably from home and still receive comprehensive and personal guidance.
I hope I have answered your questions thoroughly and am available for any further inquiries. Thank you for your trust and attention.
