I've done our taxes for years and was wondering if it may be worth it to hand it over to someone else. Taxact has been pretty user friendly but the price seems to be getting higher partly because we have more forms now. I've tried to start them this year but our internet connection out here is horrendous and I'm getting frustrated waiting on things to load. Ours are pretty simple. I have a couple W2s, my wife has some income and expenses from personal training, and I have some investment account tax forms.
Anyways, how much do you pay someone to do taxes? Ballpark figure

And for those of you who did your own and now use someone else, do you feel like they get you more back than you would have on your own?
My wife is a CPA (just went inactive) but doesn't like doing tax accounting and isn't up on all the loopholes and doesnt work as an accountant. Usually I do them and she looks back over it to see if anything glaring stands out.

I’ve got a cpa who does mine. I’ve got two 1099 jobs and two w2 jobs with my wife having a w2 as well. Will get raked over the coals with mine this year so trying to do every write off I can.

Just do it yourself. It's easy. Elementary school level work.
I use Free Tax USA because it's only $14.99 total. Federal is free and state is $14.99. I've been doing mine since I was 16. My dad always raised me to never pay another man to do my work. If you have time for aldeer, you have time to take care of your priorities as an adult. Just be honest and admit your lazy. No offense

Mine charges $250. What I also like is he gives free tax advice throughout the year as part of that. I’ve emailed him with questions no less than 5 or 6 times this year and he’s provided advice at no extra charge. Not sure if that’s normal with all CPA’s but I like it. lol. This right here. If she saves $300 and have to pay her $300 it is worth it me. I really dislike the IRS and ATF. Plus the Christmas cards her office sends out are hilarious.

Mine has saved me more than I've paid him over the years. Income on timber sales has it's own rules and schedules , many CPAs don't know how to do them and I certainly don't. My guy does , he handles several timberland owners and loggers.
