Do you serve businesses in Back Bay, Beacon Hill, South End, Seaport?

Yes, we serve businesses across all of Boston and Suffolk County, including Back Bay, Beacon Hill, South End, Seaport, and the surrounding areas. Most communication is by video, phone, and secure document portal, with quarterly in-person availability for established accounts.

How do you handle MA-specific tax rules?

Massachusetts runs a flat 5 percent rate with a 4 percent surtax kicking in above $1M. For pass-through owners, the excise election is the main lever against the federal SALT cap. For Boston clients specifically, we map MA income, sales, and (where applicable) local tax obligations into your quarterly planning so nothing slips between federal and state filings.

Can you work with my Boston-based attorney, banker, or insurance broker?

Yes. We routinely coordinate with Boston attorneys on entity formation and asset protection, with bankers on debt covenants and loan packages, and with insurance brokers on business-owner policies and retirement plan funding. We sign engagement-specific NDAs and share read-only access where it speeds up the work.

How much does a LLC formation cost in Boston?

Pricing in the Boston area is published and flat. One time work starts at $250. Ongoing plans are Core at $1,549 per month, Advisory at $3,950 per month, and Executive at $7,950 per month, billed monthly. We serve residents in ZIP codes 02101, 02108, 02109 with transparent, upfront pricing.

How long does entity formation typically take?

Most clients receive completed entity formation within 5-7 business days for straightforward situations. For complex situations common among Education professionals in the area, we allow 10-14 days to ensure accuracy. Rush services are available for those who need faster turnaround.

Boston, MA Tax Landscape

Entity Formation in Boston, MA is shaped by two things: the local industry mix and the state tax environment. Massachusetts runs a flat 5 percent rate with a 4 percent surtax kicking in above $1M. For pass-through owners, the excise election is the main lever against the federal SALT cap. The Boston business base skews toward education, healthcare, biotech, and we calibrate our work, entity structure, quarterly planning, year-end moves, to those revenue patterns. With 45,000+ businesses across Suffolk County, Boston operators need an advisor who understands both the federal playbook and the MA-specific rules. WAYG's subscription model, bookkeeping, payroll, business tax strategy, and CFO-level advisory under one flat monthly price, is built for Boston owners who want proactive planning instead of once-a-year filing.

Local context: Massachusetts runs a flat 5 percent rate with a 4 percent surtax kicking in above $1M. For pass-through owners, the excise election is the main lever against the federal SALT cap. On the ground in Boston, that translates into specific moves, entity structure, MA residency planning, multi-jurisdiction sales tax (where it applies), and coordination with your local attorney and banker.

What the IRS lets a household in Boston live on

If you owe and cannot pay in full, the IRS does not start by asking what you spend. It starts with its own tables. For a household of 2 with one vehicle in Suffolk County, those tables come to $6,087 a month.

$6,087

Food, clothing, personal care, health care and the vehicle paymentthe same figure in all 50 states: $2,441
Housing and utilities, $3,299, plus running the car, $347Suffolk County · Boston metro: $3,646

$3,646 of that figure, 60%, is decided by your county. The other $2,441 is national and does not move when you do.

One thing almost nobody says out loud: the IRS publishes the housing figure by county, not by city. Every address in Suffolk County is allowed the same $3,299, and there is no separate figure for Boston or for anywhere else inside the county. Where a city spans more than one county, the allowance changes at the county line and not at the city line. What does change from one household to the next is income, and that is the half that decides the answer.

IRS Collection Financial Standards, effective June 29, 2026, under IRC 7122(d)(2)(A); IRM 5.15.1.8, National Standards. The county housing figure comes from IRS Local Standards: Housing and Utilities. The IRS republishes these tables periodically, so check the date before you lean on the number.

What this does not model: assets of any kind, and in a collection case assets count as much as income; the lesser of rule, since the figure shown is the ceiling; any further operating allowance for an older or high mileage vehicle; a third vehicle; income and FICA withholding, which is allowed in the actual amount; and state or local tax debt.

This is an estimate from the figures shown. It is not tax advice, it is not a filing, and no one can promise you a result with the IRS.
