About the firm
A licensed CPA firm, built for how you actually work.
Our approach
What we're about.
Compliance first.
We do careful, defensible work. That means no aggressive tax positions, no guaranteed-refund promises, and no shortcuts that could create problems for you later.
Remote by design.
Everything runs through a secure client portal and scheduled calls. You work with us from anywhere in the U.S., on your own schedule — no commute, no waiting room.
Plain language.
Your finances should make sense to you. We explain what your numbers mean and why a decision matters, without hiding behind technical terms.

Our founder
Meet the founder.
IMAAR Associates CPA, PLLC is led by Muhammad Abbas (M. Abbas Sandhu), a Washington State Licensed CPA and an IRS Certifying Acceptance Agent (CAA).
That second credential matters more than it sounds. Being a CAA is what lets us handle ITIN applications without asking clients to mail their original passports to the IRS — the advantage at the center of our ITIN service.
Muhammad leads the firm's work directly, so the licensed professional you speak with is the same one accountable for your return. No handing your file to a rotating cast you never meet.
Want to talk it through? We're glad to.
Book ConsultationWhat we believe
How we work.
Accuracy over speed.
We'd rather get it right than get it fast and fix it later.
Honesty about fit.
If we're not the right firm for you, we'll say so. If you don't need a service, we'll tell you.
Security as a default.
Your financial and identity documents are handled through encrypted, access-controlled systems — never loose email attachments.
Clear communication.
Straight answers, reasonable turnaround, and no disappearing after tax season.
