Under §280E, you're taxed on gross profit — not net.
No deductions for rent, payroll, or marketing — only cost of goods survives.
Schedule III lifts §280E for California's medical and mixed-use operators — so you can finally deduct like any other business. We make the transition, and we sign it. Every engagement starts with the $375 280E Risk Review.
No deductions for rent, payroll, or marketing — only cost of goods survives.
Every engagement produces a defined, signed deliverable that lands in your portal. Here's exactly what the work looks like.
An Enrolled Agent is federally licensed to represent any taxpayer, for any tax matter, before every office of the IRS — in all 50 states. That's the authority a 471(c) position needs behind it, and the authority that lets me stand in for you if the IRS ever calls.
The audit tells you which of these you need. Each one is signed, and built to hold under exam.

Last year's return and a rough P&L — or just point me at your live books.
A clear number on what §280E cost you, plus a plan for the work that follows.
I sign, file, and face the IRS if a notice comes. You keep running your business.
No testimonials yet — and none invented in the meantime.
I'd rather show you nothing than show you something I made up.
This is built for single-location California cannabis operators — dispensary, cultivation, or mixed medical/adult-use. No multi-state, no MSO. If that's you and you're still filing under §280E, the $375 audit is where we start.
A clear number: what §280E has cost you each year, what Schedule III changes for your license type, and a plan for the work that follows. If the transition doesn't move anything for you, I'll say so — and you've spent $375 to know, not thousands to find out.
Mine, as the Enrolled Agent preparing and signing under a defined engagement. That's the point — your return carries a credentialed signature admitted to practice before the IRS, with the disclosure to back the position.
Yes. Power of Attorney goes on file, then I take over the IDR responses, the substantiation file, Appeals, or the levy/lien/installment work — as a standalone engagement, no return-prep relationship required.
It depends on your license type. State medical-licensed operators may exit §280E for 2026; adult-use and unlicensed activity stay under it. We run that analysis for your situation, and evaluate amended returns once IRS guidance is final.
Within one business day. IRS deadlines don't wait — a missed IDR or a 30-day letter is how a manageable case turns into an expensive one.
