Accountants & tax strategists in Frisco, TX
BATS works with individuals, families and business owners in Frisco who want more than a once-a-year tax filing. We prepare accurate returns, plan ahead so next year costs less, and keep the books in shape all year.
Taxes for Frisco individuals and businesses
Texas does not tax wages, so most residents file only a federal return. That makes federal planning, business-level state taxes and sales tax the main places to save. Texas has no personal income tax, but most businesses fall under the Texas franchise (margin) tax and must file annual franchise tax reports with the Comptroller.
Frisco clients work with BATS entirely online: book a call, upload documents through the secure portal and review your return or plan with your advisor before anything is filed.

Yes. BATS serves clients in Frisco and across Texas. We work through secure online meetings, e-signatures and an encrypted document portal, so you get a dedicated advisor without visiting an office.
Do Frisco residents need a state income tax return?
Texas does not tax wages, so most Frisco residents file only a federal return. If you earned income in another state, you may need a return there.
How much does tax preparation cost in Frisco?
It depends on the forms involved, the number of states and how organized your records are. After a short consultation we give you a written quote, so you know the cost before any work starts.
Do you work with small businesses in Frisco?
Yes. We handle bookkeeping, payroll, business returns and year-round planning for Frisco businesses, from sole proprietors to multi-owner companies.
Does Frisco have sales tax?
Yes. Texas charges sales tax, and local rates can add to the state rate. We help Frisco businesses register, collect the right rate and file returns with the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts.

Yes. We register your Texas payroll accounts, run payroll on schedule and file federal and state payroll returns, including unemployment insurance.
How do I pay estimated taxes as a Frisco freelancer?
You make quarterly federal payments with Form 1040-ES. Texas doesn't tax wages, so there is usually no state income tax estimate for individuals. We calculate the amounts and remind you before each due date.
I'm moving to or from Frisco. What changes?
You may need part-year returns for each state you lived in, and your withholding and estimated payments may need updating. We handle the move-year filings and set you up for the new state.

Yes. We pull your IRS transcripts, prepare the missing returns, request penalty relief where possible and set up a payment plan for any balance.
