Dear [recipient's name]:
I am writing to you today to solicit your opinion regarding my annual income taxes. As a certified public accountant in this state, I trust that you will be able to advise me. I need some guidance regarding which self-employment expenses I can include in my tax filing. I also would like to know how I should go about doing so. I also have some other miscellaneous minor questions regarding self employment and income tax. Because this is my first year of self employment, I am still learning the ins and outs of taxes and running my own business.
Please call or email me so I can glean this information from you. Please also let me know what your fee would be to answer a couple of quick questions like these. If it would be best to meet in person, I would be happy to set up an appointment with you in the near future. So just let me know about that. I look forward to hearing from you, and thank you in advance for your assistance.
Sincerely,
[Signature]
