To address this, he added financial planning services to his expanding tax practice. Joe is currently licensed as an Investment Advisor Representative, Series 6 (Investment Company Products/Variable Contracts Representative) and Series 7 (General Securities Representative), as well as insurance licensed in Life, Accident and Health, and Property and Casualty. His practice has expanded to include an office in Wyalusing, PA- Downs & Aliciene Accountants and Financial Services, LLC.
