Changing your accounting method is often essential for compliance or to align with your business’s evolving financial needs. Whether you’re moving from cash to accrual basis, adjusting inventory methods, or making other tax-driven changes, we ensure your filings are accurate, timely, and IRS-compliant.
Changing your accounting method is a critical step that can impact compliance, reporting, and cash flow. At Grove Group, we handle every detail with precision to ensure smooth transitions and IRS compliance.
We help businesses file automatic accounting method changes under IRS guidelines, excluding inventory-related adjustments. This streamlines compliance and avoids unnecessary scrutiny.
For businesses requiring changes that affect inventory accounting, we handle the full process, ensuring proper treatment of costs and inventory under the IRS’s automatic procedures.
When changes require prior IRS approval, we prepare and submit non-automatic requests. Our expertise ensures all technical requirements are met, reducing risk of rejection or delays.
Navigating IRS forms and method changes can be complex, but we simplify the process. Our team ensures your Form 3115 and related filings are prepared accurately, minimizing risks of IRS scrutiny and maximizing compliance benefits. With deep expertise in both automatic and non-automatic changes, we guide you through every step—so you can focus on running your business with confidence.
We’re passionate about helping our clients achieve financial success. See what they have to say about our expertise.

Form 3115 is used to request a change in accounting method with the IRS.
Automatic changes don’t require prior IRS consent, while non-automatic changes need IRS approval before taking effect.
Form 2848 (Power of Attorney) is required if you authorize a tax professional to represent you before the IRS.
Automatic changes are generally quicker, while non-automatic changes can take several months depending on IRS review times.
The forms are highly technical. Professional support minimizes errors, ensures compliance, and often speeds up IRS approval.
