Tax Season Nightmares You Know Too Well

The Procrastinator: Shows up April 10th with a shoebox of receipts expecting miracles

The Disappearing Act: Needs urgent help, then ghosts you for 3 weeks mid-return

The Price Haggler: Expects complex tax strategy for simple return prices

The Red Flag Factory: IRS letters, unfiled years, and "creative accounting" from the last preparer

The Never-Payer: Always has an excuse when the invoice is due

Tax Pros Are Taking Back Their Time

"Last tax season, I spent 10+ hours a week on calls that went nowhere. This year with Screen My Clients, I screened out 23 nightmare clients before they even got on my calendar. Game changer."

EA, Solo Practice

"The auto-decline feature alone paid for itself. I had a rule for unfiled years beyond 3 — automatically filtered out clients who would have been compliance nightmares."

JR
James R.
CPA, 12-person firm

"I actually enjoyed tax season for the first time in 15 years. No more dreading the phone ringing. Every client who got through was pre-qualified and ready."

Ask What Matters

11 battle-tested starter questions plus unlimited custom ones. Ask about income sources, prior issues, payment preferences — before you invest time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started

They see a professional, customizable message explaining that your practice isn't the right fit for their needs. You can suggest alternative resources or leave it simple. They never know the specific reason — just that you're not taking on their type of case.

Screen My Clients works as a standalone intake tool. You share a simple link on your website, email signature, or send directly to prospects. When you accept a client, you'll have all their screening answers to manually add to your existing system — no complex integrations to set up.

We take security seriously. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Importantly, our screening questions are designed to assess fit — not collect sensitive tax documents or SSNs. You control what questions you ask. We never share or sell any data.

Absolutely. We provide 11 proven starter questions based on what experienced tax pros ask, but you can add, remove, or modify any question. Create multiple choice, yes/no, or open text questions. You can also set which answers trigger flags or auto-declines.

All submissions — including auto-declined ones — are stored in your dashboard for 90 days. You can review any declined prospect and manually accept them if circumstances change. You're always in control.

You get a unique link (like yourfirm.screenmyclients.com) that you can share anywhere — your website, email signature, social media, or send directly via email invites. The form is mobile-friendly so prospects can complete it on any device.

Yes, no contracts or long-term commitments. Cancel from your account settings anytime. Your data remains accessible for 30 days after cancellation so you can export what you need.

We Know the Pain Because We Lived It

Screen My Clients was born from frustration. After years of taking on clients who turned into collection nightmares, scope-creep disasters, and stress-inducing relationships, we asked: "Why isn't there a simple way to screen out the bad fits before they waste everyone's time?"

So we built it. Today, Screen My Clients helps hundreds of tax professionals protect their most valuable asset — their time — while building practices filled with clients they actually enjoy working with.
