West Metro Tax

IRS e-file opens Monday January 27, 2025

West Metro Tax has been preparing tax returns in the Lakewood area for over ten years.  We have filed thousands of federal and state returns during that time.  Our goal is to make this difficult process as easy and painless as possible.  We specialize in personal returns including small businesses, rental properties and people with retirement income.  You can call or stop by our office for a no obligation quote and consultation.

One hour tax prep for most personal income tax returns.  Almost all of our fees are between $65 and $200 depending on the number of documents.  Earned Income Credit tax returns generally are between $100 and $175.  Prices include both federal and state e-file.  The charge on some returns may be more, I will give you a price before starting the return.  Please call or text for an appointment.

Payment is due upon the completion of the tax return and before the return is e-filed.  We accept cash (3% discount) and checks, major credit cards, and the payment apps, Zelle (720-217-1508), and Venmo (@westmetrotaxco).  Many tax preparers offer refund loans or the ability to deduct the fee from a refund, but I do not offer any of those services.  They are very expensive and 80% of the returns I prepare get their refunds in less than three weeks.  I apologize for the inconvenience.

I believe that the best way to prepare a return is in person.  For me, this method is quicker and more accurate than over the internet.  Just show up with your documents and photo ID and I will take care of the rest.  I have two screens for my laptop, and you can watch as I prepare the return.

The street address for West Metro Tax is 7550 W Yale Ave, Suite B-201, Lakewood, CO  80227.  This is in the Bear Valley West office park, 1 block east of the intersection of South Wadsworth Blvd and West Yale Avenue.  Tax season office hours are 9 am until 6 pm Monday through Saturday.  Occasionally I will have out of office appointments, you can text me to make sure I am there.

My name is Tim Krasniewicz, and I am the owner of West Metro Tax.  I became an Enrolled Agent in 2013 when I started this business.  Before that, I did accounting work for several different construction and real estate companies in the Denver area. I only prepare and e-file tax returns, I do not offer financial advice.  I will do bookkeeping work if it is necessary for the completion of the return.  The charge for bookkeeping is $100 an hour.
