While DIY software can be a great option for those with only W-2’s, it isn’t as great of an option for those of us with more complex financial lives.
If you have a business, contractors, a mortgage, investment income, rental properties, are married filing separately, are widowed, have multiple dependents, or any combination thereof, it is best to work with a pro.
In short, if you have a more complex return and make a mistake using DIY software, you miss out on valuable tax strategies. Strategies that help prevent you from overpaying the government—or, worse, underpaying it.
Nothing!
I worked as a tax preparer for a seasonal big-box tax prep office for the first five years of my tax-prep career. I decided to leave this environment because of a lack of transparency, efficiency, and a desire to provide a more tailored experience for my clients.
With my own practice, I can also personally provide additional education & consulting services year-round. Big-box options may say that they have "year-round services,” but outside of tax season, you’ll get a pro from out of state who knows nothing about you or your situation.
If you’re okay with the seasonal big-box, corporate mentality, go for it!
