## About this task

This government IT contractor serving tax authorities (51–200 employees) is looking for a senior Tax Preparation Support for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Reads a notice, collects documents and drafts a response for the licensed representative.

A fresh pair of experienced eyes is needed, and the result is a document or file the team can use straight away. It supplies the public sector, so documentation follows contract rules.

The work is fully remote. Any location in United States works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. You choose your hours; nothing is scheduled except an occasional short call.

## What you deliver

- Read a CP2000 notice, match it to client records and prepare a draft response and document list.

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

- A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope

## How the work runs

- Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files

- Days 2 to 4: the work, with questions answered the same day

- Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough

**Duration:** 1 to 2 weeks. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.

## Tools

IRS portal Excel

## Who fits

- 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Tax Preparation Support, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in IRS portal and Excel

- A professional qualification is required for any sign-off; the company keeps the final signature, you prepare and review.

- Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate

### Nice to have

- Has worked with a distributed team across time zones

- Comfortable explaining numbers or decisions to a non-specialist reader

## Not included

- Travel or work at a fixed location

- Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so

- A signature or opinion in your own name: sign-off stays with the company

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in USD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.
