Haziq Inayat, EA
I started Red White & Blue Tax Services in 2013 to be the alternative to the predatory tax shops I'd seen up close. Same mission today.
After years in corporate tax in the Fortune 500 world, I spent a year in the South Bronx running one of the busiest locations of a franchise tax shop. I watched it extract cash from people who couldn't spare it — and saw that it was the industry norm, not the exception. So I built the alternative.
Since 2013, Red White & Blue Tax Services has grown from affordable expert work for individuals into a practice for business owners, startups, and real estate investors who need someone who actually knows the code — and explains it.
Every client gets a video walkthrough of their return. Not a PDF over the wall — a plain-English explanation of what we filed and why. And I'm available year-round, not just from January to April.
In the press
Haziq Inayat appeared in Marketplace's 2015 report on predatory tax preparers, interviewed as a shop owner on how the industry prices its fees.
“That is the industry standard. They all charge the same way because the market bears it.”
— Haziq Inayat, quoted in “Predatory tax preparers target low-income households,” Marketplace, 3 April 2015.
