Connecticut has a state income tax, so tax time here means two returns — your federal return and your Connecticut return. Compass Tax Center handles both, personally, year-round, and 100% virtually. From Fairfield County to the Quiet Corner, we're a secure upload and a phone call away.
A federal return and a Connecticut return, prepared together so they agree and you claim every credit you're owed. Connecticut also has an estate and gift tax that catches families off guard — and we handle that side of the planning too.
Two returns instead of one means more places to save and more places to slip up. We handle the whole picture, federal and state, and we're here after April, too.
Connecticut's income tax is graduated and tops out near 6.99%. What sets Connecticut apart is that it's the only state in the country with its own gift tax, and it pairs that with an estate tax — both of which matter for families passing on wealth.
Those transfer taxes are easy to overlook until it's too late. We keep your yearly returns accurate and help you plan around the gift and estate rules before they become a costly surprise.
Connecticut's income tax gets the attention, but a few other taxes matter too. If any of these are you, they're firmly in our wheelhouse.
You don't need a tax office down the road — you need the right person handling both your returns. Everything we do is secure and fully virtual, so working with us is exactly as easy from Mystic as it is from Stamford. And since we serve all 50 states, if life moves you out of Connecticut, your tax help doesn't have to change.
Start now or book a free consultation. We're here year-round — for tax season and everything after it.
