2026 Update & Tax Preparation

Happy New Year!

The purpose of this note is to recognize some significant events at Nuance Accounting & Tax Services since April 30, 2025. 

First, Irina Glazounova, owner and operator of Nuance for over a decade, retired on April 30, 2025.  Since then, I have been working with business clients – thanks to those clients with whom I have worked as I have settled-in. 

Second, I have made several process changes with quality and efficiency in mind.

Read below! Thank you! Comment!

The new website provides a centre for new and returning clients to provide and access important information.  You can use the website to schedule a brief call through Google or send an inquiry.  Please check it out.  

Firm Platform > Financial Cents

Nuance will use Financial Cents, a secure accounting application for managing tax work and communicating with clients. Financial Cents provides secure access to you records and invoicing. See the link for more information about Financial Cents. 

Tax Process for 2026

  • Clients who filed with Nuance last year will receive a request for information on February 1, 2026 with a weekly reminder thereafter
