From tax preparation to planning, we’re here to simplify the process and support you through every step. Hello,

I'm Brandon Ferrell in Belmont, bringing 20 years of experience in tax preparation. My journey started in 2005 in San Carlos, focusing on a range of tax returns. The pandemic shifted my work to remote from Moss Beach, but now I'm back in Belmont. Taxation is a dynamic field. My goal is to make it simpler for my clients, dealing with everything from rental properties to energy credits and ensuring maximum deductions and credits. Recent global changes have reshaped priorities, and I'm looking to connect with those who value expert tax advice. Let's meet in Belmont for a chat about your tax concerns. All the best,
Brandon Ferrell, CRTP

😥 Back taxes can feel heavy, and a lot of people stay stuck because they’re embarrassed.

There’s no judgment here.

PenCoast's job is to take this complicated situation, unravel it, and help you get back on track.

🗣️ The first step is a conversation.

⏰ 5 days left. Returns on extension are due Thursday, October 15

📋 Quick checklist:
✅ All documents to your preparer
✅ Review your return and sign the e-file authorization
✅ Can’t pay it all? File anyway. The late-filing penalty is the bigger one.

There’s no second extension, so let’s get it done.

✅ A tax plan gets you through this year.

✅ A tax strategy sets you up for the next five.

💡 If your life changed this year, start with planning. If you own a business or rentals, or your finances are getting more complex, it’s time to think about strategy.

⏰ 10 days until the Oct 15 extension deadline

Are you on extension? You are if you (or your preparer) filed Form 4868 by April 15, or made a payment marked as an extension payment. California gives an automatic extension to Oct 15.

Not sure? Ask your preparer or check your IRS online account.

What to do now: get your missing documents to your preparer this week (K-1s, 1099s, brokerage statements).

Missed April with no extension? File as soon as you can. Penalties keep growing every month.

🌅 Summer’s winding down on the coast, and before fall gets busy, here are 3 things on my mind:

1️⃣ Extension deadline: Oct. 15. If you filed an extension in April, your return is due in 3 weeks. Don’t wait until the last minute!

2️⃣ Planning while there’s still time. After Dec. 31, your options for 2026 are gone. Fall is the time to look ahead.

3️⃣ Why I love this work. Balancing the family math. Small adjustments and good communication make your whole year run smoother, with no surprises in April. Thank you for trusting me with your numbers and your stories.

🌊 Back-to-school season means back-to-school errands — and California law has your back.

Under the Family-School Partnership Act (Labor Code § 230.8), parents can take up to 40 hours a year of protected time off for school-related activities: enrolling or re-enrolling your kid, parent-teacher conferences, field trips, and school emergencies.

The fine print 👇

📍 Applies only to employers with 25+ employees at one location
⏰ Planned absences capped at 8 hours per month
📝 Give reasonable notice — and expect to use your existing vacation or PTO
🚫 Your employer can’t retaliate for taking it

Bonus: § 230.7 covers time off for a suspension or expulsion meeting, and that one applies to employers of any size.

Not legal advice — just something worth knowing before the school year gets rolling.
