We're thrilled to welcome Evelyn to the KeyLin team!

Evelyn found her love for accounting in high school, where she discovered that bookkeeping and taxes are "like a big puzzle that needs solving," and she's been hooked ever since. Her favorite part of the job is helping clients understand their tax results and finding ways to lower them for the season ahead. That's the KeyLin way! ☕

Her advice to her younger self? Start investing as soon as possible because compounding interest and dividends make all the difference.

Welcome to the team, Evelyn!

Meet Sandra, one of our newest team members! Sandra joined KeyLin in December 2025 and is already making an impact.

When she's not working, you'll find Sandra in her garden or hanging out with Coby and Tom, her two stray cats who decided her place was their forever home. Sandra was first drawn to accounting through working in her family's small business, and today her favorite part of the job is building client relationships.

Her advice to her younger self? "Try to learn something new daily."

Welcome to the team, Sandra! 💚

If your business is a Partnership or an S Corporation, the deadline to file your tax returns is March 16th this year (since the 15th falls on a Sunday)! If you think you'll need more time to file, March 16th is also the deadline to request an extension.

‼️ It's important to remember that an extension to file is NOT an extension to pay, as you still need to estimate what you owe and pay it by March 16th to avoid penalties and fees.
