Client portal guide for client users
At Agranda CPA, we have chosen to utilize the client portal to ensure easy and secure management of all information or documents you share with us. You don’t need to log in regularly to the client portal, as you will receive an email notifying you if we require any action from you, such as uploading a document or reviewing a tax return. You should have already received an email from Agranda CPA with a link to our client portal, along with instructions on how to set up your password. We are committed to making your experience as seamless and efficient as possible.
Here is a link to our Senta tool where you will find comprehensive documentation as well as a detailed video tutorial explaining the functionality of our portal.
How can I sign in to the client portal?
To access Agranda CPA’s client portal, you will first need a link, which will be sent to you in the activation email dispatched by our firm.
