Ron 10 #1 February 2, 2005 Well, here we go again evryones favorite time....Tax season. So how much is the average Tax prep fee and is there really a difference in who you use? Is Turbo Tax just as good?"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -- Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mailin 0 #2 February 2, 2005 Last year was the first year we paid the $75 to have someone do our taxes. The previous 4 years we did it ourselves with Turbo Tax. Last year was the first year we didn't get a letter from the IRS stating we miscalculated something and need to either pay or elaborate on information. Plus, the added piece of mind is worth it. The aggrevation is what made us change our method. JenArianna Frances Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freefalle 0 #3 February 2, 2005 I think it depends, I've used turbo tax for years and I've been happy with it but then I've always had just one or two W2s and no deductions. This year, Im going to have mine done simply because I've got 10-99s involved and Im hoping to deduct some of my expenses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is Turbo Tax just as good? I find that using a local independant tax preparer works for me. Less fuss, knows all the little tricks etc. The year I did it myself, I fucked it up royally. I not only had to pay a whole shitload of taxes and fees, they fined my ass $4000. Yes, that was not a typo. I got a $4000 fine on top of my taxes, and a lein put on my house until I paid it.
