Suzanne C.
When my former accountant could not answer my tax planning questions before Christmas -- even though I truly needed answers before the end of the calendar year! -- I searched around and found Island Pacific Accounting & Tax Services and requested some urgent tax help. Isabelle very efficiently helped me navigate through what to me was a quagmire, but to her made complete sense. After having worried for several weeks about my situation that had significant potential tax implications, after seeing Isabelle I was able to enjoy the rest of my holiday. My only regret is that I did not find her sooner! But I'm so thankful that Isabelle is now our new accountant and tax planning professional, and couldn't recommend her more highly. More...

I wish I had found this service earlier.
