frequently asked questions
F.A.Q.
Q: Who’s behind Sunshine Tax Academy?
Credentialed tax professionals with over a decade of experience inside the Florida Department of Revenue.
Our expertise is in tax law, education, + compliance.Due to current professional obligations, we choose to keep the spotlight on education - not ourselves.
Q: How do I book a consult?
Just pick your service, pay via Gumroad, and you’ll get a link to schedule your consultation time instantly via Calendly.
Q: Are these video calls or phone calls?
All consultations are conducted via a phone call.
Q: Can I use your services if I already have a CPA or bookkeeper?
Absolutely. Many of our clients are accountants, payroll specialists, and bookkeepers who use our services to get clarity on Florida-specific rules that aren’t always covered in national trainings.Weather you're handling the books yourself or you have a tax professional - we help you understand what's really going on.
Q: Why work with you instead of just calling the Florida Department of Revenue?
We actually encourage you to contact the Department when needed - we’ll even tell you exactly when to call, who to ask for (if possible), and what to ask to get the clearest answers.But here’s the reality:•You can’t control who you’ll speak to or how experienced they are.
•Hold times vary wildly depending on the season, deadlines, or system issues.
•Agents are expected to keep calls short - which may leave you feeling rushed, confused, or bounced between departments.At Sunshine Tax Academy we guide you at your pace & convenience.
Q: Are you a replacement for legal or tax representation?
Nope - and we don’t pretend to be.
We are an education-first resource, not legal defense or audit representation.We help you understand what’s required, avoid common mistakes, and make smarter decisions before you’re ever in trouble.
If you need legal help, we’ll tell you and point you in the right direction.
