How Business Creates Value:
What is an “Enrolled Agent”
Enrolled Agent (EA) is a prestigious designation from the Internal Revenue Service. EAs must pass a rigorous examination, a background check, and meet lengthy annual continuing professional education requirements. That’s why EAs account for less than 10 percent of all tax practitioners – and are considered a cut above the rest. By selecting an Enrolled Agent to handle your taxes, you are assured a superior level of taxation expertise – so you can be confident of thorough, insightful service and uncommon professionalism that makes a real difference.
How Member Creates Value:
For Enrolled Agent Matthew Coulombe, tax preparation has never been about cranking through returns—it’s about people. He started C & M Tax Plus in Long Beach to help individuals and entrepreneurs feel empowered rather than overwhelmed when tax season rolls around.
He’s known for being approachable and easy to talk to, breaking things down into plain English so clients actually understand what’s happening with their money. Matthew believes that when clients understand their taxes, they make better decisions for their business and their future.

Our Approach
Matthew takes the time to listen. Every engagement starts with a conversation, not a quote. He helps clients understand what’s required, why it matters, and how to stay ahead of the IRS before issues occur.
Because of his involvement in local business groups, he often serves as a connector, connecting clients with trusted attorneys, real estate professionals, or financial advisors when needed. His firm’s reputation for honesty and clarity has made it a go-to for Southern California entrepreneurs looking for year-round financial insight.
When he’s not working, you’ll find Matthew playing soccer several times a week or spending time with his family. He brings that same teamwork and energy to every client relationship—steady, reliable, and invested in helping others succeed.
