Most people do not look forward to preparing their tax returns. You have the option to hire a professional who can help you navigate the complexities of the tax code, or you can choose to handle it yourself. There are various do-it-yourself software programs available that assist you in preparing your tax return. These programs use an interview-style approach to guide you through income and deductions, helping you achieve the best possible outcome.
A tax professional can help you achieve a better outcome on your tax return while also relieving you of the burden of filling out forms and worrying about potential omissions. Additionally, if you receive an unexpected letter from the IRS or state government, a tax professional can guide you through the process.
For many individuals with simple tax situations, filing your tax return yourself is a very effective choice.
