Every new client brings the same scramble: collect documents, note their obligations, set reminders, brief the team. Done ad-hoc, it eats hours and things fall through the cracks.
Build a repeatable checklist
Start with a standard onboarding checklist: identity documents, NTN, registration papers, prior returns, and the list of obligations you’ll handle. When every client follows the same path, nothing is forgotten.
Capture obligations up front
The moment you know what you’re handling — sales tax, income tax, SECP filings — record it. In PracticePA, adding those obligations automatically builds the client’s deadline calendar, so their compliance schedule exists from day one.
Let clients do their part
A client portal lets the client upload their own documents instead of emailing them piecemeal. You start with a complete file rather than chasing attachments for a week.
Onboarding shouldn’t be a bottleneck. Try PracticePA free and set up a new client in minutes.
