Tax Preparation in New Lenox, IL

New Lenox calls itself "Flag City," and it shows: this is a community of families who work hard, commute on the Metra, raise kids in the Lincoln-Way school districts, and take care of their own. At Progressive Tax and Accounting, we take the same approach to your taxes: careful, honest, and thorough.

Family finances, done right

New Lenox households tend to be busy dual-income families with kids, mortgages, and long commutes. That combination creates real tax opportunities, if someone takes the time to look. When we prepare your return, we check for:

  • Child tax credits and dependent care expenses: often the biggest line items for working parents
  • Education credits and 529 plans: for Lincoln-Way students heading to college
  • Mortgage interest and property tax deductions: Illinois property taxes are among the highest in the nation, and Will County families feel it
  • Retirement contributions: 401(k)s and IRAs that lower today's tax bill and build tomorrow's security

We also help with estimated payments and withholding adjustments, so you're not giving the IRS an interest-free loan all year, or owing a painful amount in April.

More than tax season

We stay with our clients year-round:

  • Bookkeeping and payroll for New Lenox's growing small business community along Route 30 and Cedar Road
  • New business setup: LLCs, EINs, licensing, and choosing a tax structure
  • IRS help: notices, back taxes, and payment plans handled without panic

Our office is at 1256 W Jefferson St, Suite 207 in Joliet, about 20 minutes from the New Lenox Metra station area via Route 30. Many clients work with us entirely remotely, and we're always a phone call away at (773) 360-8230.
