Turner Terry CPA
Business Details
About
Turner Terry CPA sits a few blocks south of Times Square—no marquees, no tourist crowds; just the everyday rhythm of Manhattan’s west side. Tax preparation and audit support anchor the practice, with extensions into financial statement analysis and bookkeeping cleanup. Partnerships and pass-through entities often tap in for entity-level work, while individuals stop by for schedule filings. Entity formation paperwork is handled by appointment; payroll setup consultations can run thirty minutes or two hours, depending on the structure. A separate contractor vs. employee classification review is common when businesses outgrow 1099 contractors. The focus remains on clean output, not bells and whistles.
Stop by at 1185 6th Ave, New York, NY 10036; the brown-brick façade blends into the block. Inside, the front room holds desks, chairs, and filing cabinets—nothing staged for visitors. White noise from the avenue blends with key clicks; the space is utilitarian by design. Papers arrive in color-coded folders, sorted by due date before they’re scanned and backed up. Backup disks live in the bottom drawer—half a dozen clients still insist on DVD sleeves labeled with Sharpie. Clients slip in with thumb drives and last year’s receipts, leaving with a USB stick and a printed summary.
Reach the front desk at (212) 372-1000 and leave a voicemail if the line is busy; callbacks usually arrive the same afternoon. Unsigned checks sit in a tray labeled “pending,” next to the shredder where duplicate copies vanish. New-client packets include a one-page questionnaire and a checklist of third-party logins to request—Intuit, Gusto, or the bank portal—so the real work can start on day one. In the corner, a label maker hums out barcode strips that wrap around folders; each strip reads TT-0807 to TT-0872, depending on the client folder’s thickness.
Directions and real-time transit updates are waiting on the map—the route that drops you on 6th between 46th and 47th rather than fighting the Broadway bottleneck further south.
