Your Salt Lake City preparation guide
Tax preparation connected to Salt Lake City.
ASI helps Salt Lake City clients start tax preparation and planning conversations. Discuss business returns, individual returns and the records needed to define your engagement.
Salt Lake City business resources
Salt Lake City’s Business Licensing office provides local licensing resources. Use its current application guidance for your activity and address, including home-based operations. Do not assume that a Salt Lake County address falls within Salt Lake City boundaries. Official Salt Lake City business guidance.
Planning questions to bring
For a Salt Lake City business, prepare a timeline of hiring, new locations and sales activity outside Utah. Keep state payment confirmations with the relevant account and tax period. If you moved into or out of Utah, bring the dates and work locations so resident and multi-state filing questions can be discussed.
Utah and federal records
Bring your Utah tax account information together with federal records. Identify business income, payroll, sales activity and changes in ownership or operations. The Utah State Tax Commission business resources provide the starting point for state accounts and filing questions. A city business license and a state tax filing serve different purposes. Official Utah tax resources.
A practical preparation checklist
- Prior returns and the years requiring attention.
- Income and expense reports, account reconciliations and payment confirmations.
- Changes in business structure, ownership, payroll or operating locations.
- Dates and states associated with a move or work across state lines.

Service area and meeting arrangements
This guide describes tax preparation inquiries and local resources, not an ASI office in every city or state. ASI confirms the returns, jurisdictions and services included in each engagement. If an in-person conversation is important, confirm the venue and appointment before traveling. See published contact locations and our local consultation guide.
Who will handle your return?
Ask who will prepare and sign the return, what qualifications are relevant to your needs, how questions after filing are handled and what work the engagement includes. IRS: How to choose a tax return preparer explains questions to consider when selecting a preparer. Government sources are background guidance, not an endorsement of ASI.
