Houston, Texas, United States Premier Tax & Financial Solutions LLC Full time $30,000 - $60,000 per year

Job summary

Join Premier Tax & Financial Solutions as a remote, contract Entry-Level Tax Preparer. No prior experience required — we provide optional Zoom onboarding and PTIN assistance. You'll prepare individual returns under our EFIN (using your PTIN once obtained), accept/decline client offers based on your availability, and invoice weekly. Great opportunity if you want flexible seasonal work and strong per-file pay.

What you'll do

  • Prepare individual federal & state 1040 returns using TaxSlayer (we'll provide software access for approved contractors).
  • Submit completed returns to Premier for final QC/review prior to e-file.
  • Communicate professionally with clients via phone/email/Zoom when needed.
  • Keep client data confidential and follow the firm's QC checklist.
  • Accept or decline client offers sent by admin (respond within 12–24 hours).
  • Optionally promote your services with provided co-branded flyers/business cards.

Compensation

  • Production pay: $300 per completed & approved return (contractor).
  • Estimated earnings: $3,000 – $6,000 / month (typical 10–20 returns/month; actual pay varies by volume you accept).
  • Holdback: 10% retained for 30 days to cover refund-product reversals (documented).
  • Payments are made by contractor invoice (weekly) via ACH/bank transfer. Premier issues 1099-NEC when required by law.
  • Note: Indeed pay filter set as monthly range to reflect typical earnings; actual pay is per return as above.

Training & requirements

  • PTIN: Not required to apply. You must obtain a PTIN before preparing live client returns — we will guide you through the PTIN application during optional onboarding. Deadline to obtain PTIN: within 14 days of hire or before first client assignment.
  • Training: Optional free Zoom onboarding + homework (unpaid). All new contractors must pass a short competency test before taking live clients.
  • Must have: Reliable internet, your own computer, quiet workspace, professional communication skills.
  • Documents required before first payout: W-9 and PTIN confirmation. E&O insurance recommended.

Qualifications (basic)

  • No experience required — training & step-by-step support provided.
  • PTIN preferred but not required to apply (must obtain before filing).
  • Detail-oriented, dependable, good communicator.
  • Comfortable learning TaxSlayer or similar tax software.
  • Ability to accept/decline clients quickly and keep availability calendar updated.

How scheduling & client offers work (important)

  • Our admin will offer clients into the time blocks you publish. You may accept or decline each offer. Accepted clients will be placed on your calendar. This is contractor work — you control which clients you take.

How to apply

Please submit:

(1) Resume or brief summary of tax/finance experience (if any)

(2) Answer the following screening questions in your email:

  • Do you currently have a PTIN? (Yes / No)
  • If no: Are you willing to obtain a PTIN within 14 days of hire? (Yes / No)
  • Are you available to commit at least 8 hours/week and one evening or Saturday during peak season? (Yes / No)
  • How many returns do you expect you could prepare per month? (Short answer)
  • Do you have reliable internet and your own computer? (Yes / No)

(3) PTIN if you already have one

Applications that include the PTIN question answers will be prioritized. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to a 10–15 minute Zoom interview and given details for the optional PTIN onboarding.
