What should I bring for Boyle & Company to prepare my taxes?
All tax documents you have received for you and your family & dependents will be needed in order to prepare your return. If you are a new client, a copy of your most recently filed returns will be necessary. We can send you a tax organizer form, which includes a checklist of needed items.
What is a Personal Property Return?
In general, business entities, including sole proprietors, are required to file an annual Personal Property Return in the state or states in which they hold business-use personal property. Personal property generally includes furniture, fixtures, office and industrial equipment,
machinery, tools, supplies, inventory, and any other property not classified as
real property. Failure to file this annual form and pay any applicable filing fee
can result in an inability to obtain certain business licenses, forfeiture of an entity’s corporate charter, and loss of the privilege to do business in the state
of noncompliance. Below are due dates and extended due dates for selected jurisdictions:
Maryland: Due April 15, extended due date June 15. Taxes are levied by local authorities, but are filed by standardized return through the State.

Virginia: Generally due May 1, but may vary, as property is taxed locally. Contact the local tax authority (city or county) to obtain specific information
Pennsylvania: Levied locally; contact the local tax authority (city or county) to obtain specific information

Where can I get copies of tax forms?
Tax forms are available through the following websites. Most forms are available in Adobe Acrobat PDF format, and can be completed and printed using your computer. Note that some tax forms, such as certain sales & use tax forms, must be filed using the original paper form mailed to you, as the form contains magnetically coded ink.
