Tax Preparation

 

Preparing your own income-tax return can leave you with more questions than answers. Today’s tax laws are so complicated that filing even a relatively simple return can be confusing, frustrating and time-consuming. What’s worse is that filing your own return can be costly because it is just too easy to overlook deductions and credits to which you are entitled.

​

According to the US Government’s General Accounting Office, most taxpayers (77% of 71 million) believe they have benefited from employing a professional tax preparer. While computer software programs can help, there is ultimately no substitute for the assistance of an experienced tax professional.
