Tax Preparation in North Miami: 2026 Filing Season Guide
Florida has no state income tax — but that doesn't mean your federal return is simple. Here's what North Miami filers need to know this year.
Key 2026 dates
Individual returns due April 15, 2026. Extensions push to October 15 — but any tax owed is still due in April. Estimated quarterly payments: Apr 15, Jun 15, Sep 15, Jan 15.
Standard deduction bump
Single: $15,000. Married filing jointly: $30,000. Head of household: $22,500. For many North Miami W-2 filers this makes itemizing unnecessary.
ITIN filers and Miami's immigrant community
You can file federal taxes with an ITIN — and you should. It builds a record for future immigration relief, mortgage qualification, and refund eligibility on withheld taxes.
Beat the storm-season CPA rush
Miami tax preparers get slammed in March. Book by mid-February and you get a real conversation, not a rush job.
Year-round vs seasonal preparer
IRS letters, audits, and estimated payments happen year-round. I stay open 12 months, not just Jan–April.
