Tax Returns & the Capstone Job
Prepare individual, sole trader and company tax workpapers, then own a full client job end to end.
The final technical course, and the biggest test. You prepare tax workpapers for an individual, a sole trader and a company, learning how returns are built inside a firm.
Then comes the capstone: Coastal Property Group, handed to you the way a manager would hand it to a junior. Source documents in, finished job out. Books, reconciliations, financials and tax workpapers, all through the full review loop.
Finish this and you can honestly say you have taken a client job from start to end.
