Can we do this in Spanish?

The short answer

Say so, and it is followed. Write your language into the guided intake, or say it in your first sentence on the phone, and that is how the office comes back to you.

The site itself runs in three languages. The pages and the on-page helper are written in English, Spanish and Portuguese, and the helper replies in whichever one you write to it in. None of it is a shorter version in one language than another.

Why it matters more here than it looks

Advice is only worth what is understood of it.

A structure explained second-hand, or in a language you are working in rather than thinking in, loses a little at every step — and the things being explained are not simple. Whether an entity should be taxed one way or another. What a reasonable salary means, and who decides. Why an instalment was too small and what the penalty is attached to.

When a conversation is happening in a language you are translating in your head, questions go unasked. A recommendation gets half-followed. A decision gets made on part of the picture. That is not really a language problem. It is an outcomes problem.

Advice is only worth what is understood of it.

What that covers

All of it, rather than a subset. The first conversation and the structure review. The planning during the year. The return itself. A letter from the IRS or the state, and what it actually says rather than what it looks like it says. The ongoing back-and-forth about how you pay yourself, what to document and what is coming next.

The same is true across the rest of PSC: the books, payroll, the long-term financial side and insurance. If you want the whole relationship conducted in one language, or in two depending on who is in the room, say so at the start rather than a year in.

Who this practice was built around

PSC has been doing this since 1996, and what it does has always been shaped by who actually walks through the door: one-person businesses, family companies, and households whose finances are tangled up with a business whether or not anyone planned it that way.

Size is not the filter, and neither is the language you are most comfortable in. If something genuinely is not a fit you will be told that on the first call rather than sold something anyway.

Where you are does not settle it either

The base is Rhode Island. The accounting, tax and payroll side is not really a question of distance — that work moves by document and by call as a matter of course, so where you are sitting matters much less than what you need.

If video suits you better than a call, say so in the first message and it saves a round of scheduling. Much of this side of the work gets settled without anybody travelling.

How to start in your own language

Write to the office in the language you want to use. Put it in the guided intake, or say it on the phone in your first sentence. There is nothing to fill in before that conversation, and the office answers within one business day.
