  Please be aware of fraudulent emails that appear to be from a legitimate company/business. The Secret Service warned that it could contain malicious attachments that, when clicked, will harvest your credentials or potentially lock down your system for ransomware. Always read (and verify independently if unknown) the sender's information. More info here.

The health and safety of our team and clients are our top priority. Currently, our Lynnwood office is still open for appointments and drop-offs (before entering our main door - to your right is a box for your documents). To accommodate any concerns, we follow the guidance of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and have increased the cleaning and sanitation of our office; and informed our staff - if anyone is feeling ill, they need to stay home.

We are committed to serving our clients with care, and we are confident we are taking precautionary measures to promote the health and safety of our local community. Please check with us on any changes in our work schedule. Call 1-800-361-1770  or email sharie@fasteasyaccounting.com if you have any questions.
