Enrolled Agent 33 years.

Have worked 100% remote for various California Tax Preparer Firms for 8 years now.

Moved from Bay Area, California, to Tucson, Arizona in late April, 2014. Have separate office in residence and Children are grown and so have been able to focus better in my Home Office than in a general office. Realization rate was as good or better when I began working 100% of the time, remotely, then when working in a 20 person Office in the Bay Area. After 6 years remote, laid off because of Covid-19. Next job left to work for former co-workers tax prep and bookkeeping Firm. Laid-off when tax prep and bookkeeping Firm was sold.
