Profile

David N. Hoffer, EA

I specialize in accounting and tax preparation services for a wide variety of clients. I specialize in:

  • Tax return preparation and filing for individuals, businesses, nonprofits, estates and trusts
  • Tax planning for life changes
  • Audit representation
  • Bookkeeping, client write-up, sales tax, payroll tax and financial statement compilation for small businesses

My Bio

I received my accounting degree (Bachelor of Business Administration in Public Accounting) from Bernard M Baruch College in 1979 and began working as an auditor with the Office of the State Comptroller (New York), transitioning in 1998 from Management Audit to Information Technology Services.  I retired from this position in 2010 after 31 years of service to the State of New York.

My interest in taxes began in 1977 while I was still in college, and I have been involved in income taxes for the past 41 years, first part-time, and full-time since 2010.

I am an Enrolled Agent, licensed to practice before the IRS.  This allows me to represent you at all levels of the IRS.  I participate in Continuing Professional Education courses offered by local chapters of the National Association of Enrolled Agents and the Independent Association of Accountants to keep me on the leading edge of ever-changing tax laws and accounting methods.  To learn more about Enrolled Agents and other persons who prepare taxes, refer to the IRS web page Understanding Tax Return Preparer Credentials and Qualifications https://www.irs.gov/Tax-Professionals/Understanding-Tax-Return-Preparer-Credentials-and-Qualification

I am proud to be a member and former President and Treasurer of the Friends of Music of the Bergenfield Schools, which supports the excellent music programs in our school district.  Consider supporting this very worthwhile organization. For more information, go to https://www.facebook.com/groups/117317314977636/ .  It is one of the organizations that I have helped register with the IRS, State of New Jersey Charities Registration Section and the State of New Jersey Legalized Games of Chance Control Commission.  I have since helped other nonprofits navigate through this sometimes daunting process and prepare required annual filings.

I am based in Bergenfield, New Jersey, but provide services for clients throughout the United States.  Services can be provided at your location in Bergen County and parts of the Metropolitan New York area or we can work remotely.  Contact me for details.

Feel free to contact me anytime. I’m here to help.
