Taxes shouldn’t be a once-a-year scramble. At Equifirst, you work directly with Enrolled Agent Olha Krushevska, who brings 10+ years of experience helping small business owners plan ahead, reduce surprises, and make smarter financial decisions all year long.
Tax planning isn’t just about finding last-minute deductions. It’s about understanding how your income, expenses, payroll, and entity structure fit together, so you’re not overpaying or getting caught off guard.
At Equifirst, you get:
We help you look beyond this year’s return and think in terms of the next 12–24 months. That includes:
Your entity choice affects how you’re taxed and how you pay yourself. We help you:
Estimated taxes don’t have to be guesswork. We help you:
Tax planning doesn’t exist in a vacuum, it’s tied to how money actually moves through your business. We help you:
Reactive tax work focuses on what already happened. Proactive planning focuses on what you can still influence.
A lot of “tax planning” content online is generic, and some of it doesn’t apply to your situation at all.
At Equifirst, your planning is handled by an Enrolled Agent who understands both the rules and the real-world context of running a business.
That means:
Olha combines her EA credential and Bachelor’s degree in Taxation & Finance with more than a decade of experience helping individuals and small businesses.
We keep the process practical and focused on your real-world decisions.
We talk through your business, income sources, current challenges, and what you want from tax planning (less stress, more savings, clearer decisions, etc.).
We review your recent returns, entity structure, bookkeeping setup, and estimated payments to see where you stand now.
We outline specific recommendations: entity considerations, estimated payments, timing opportunities, and action items, so you know exactly what to do next.
As your income and business shift, we revisit the plan and adjust as needed, so it stays relevant instead of becoming something you did once and forgot.
Equifirst has supported 100+ individuals and business owners in understanding their taxes, planning ahead, and making decisions with a clear view of the numbers instead of guesswork.
Equifirst supports clients both locally and nationwide.

Tax preparation focuses on filing your return for a past year. Tax planning focuses on what you can still change going forward, how you structure your business, time income and expenses, and plan estimated payments.
No. Many of the biggest benefits show up for small business owners and self-employed professionals whose income fluctuates or who are unsure whether their current structure still makes sense.
Yes. We review your income, how you pay yourself, and your growth plans to compare the tax impact of different structures. When it’s appropriate, we also help with S-Corp elections and coordination with your bookkeeping and payroll.
Sometimes, but not always. We’re careful not to promise outcomes. Our focus is on realistic options, what’s still adjustable this year and what can be set up now to improve future years.
It depends on your situation. Some clients prefer a few key check-ins per year (for example, mid-year and year-end); others want more frequent reviews during periods of growth or big changes.
