This season, I am only offering remote and home appointments.

Upper Section of IRS Form 1040

Cost:

  • Preparation rate is $200/hour billed in tenth of an hour increments. For most people with simple returns this means a cost between $100 and $160, assuming 30-48 minutes of preparation time. Complicated returns can cost significantly more.
  • $60 for home appointments within 15 miles of office. $3/mile for each extra mile. Mileage is based on shortest driving distance.

Tax preparation fees must be paid before filing with the IRS. I do not take my fee from any potential refund amount.

I charge based on the time it takes to complete a tax return. I do not charge based on which forms are used like many paid tax preparers.


Guarantee:

I guarantee that I will prepare an accurate return based on the information provided. If I have made some mistake, I will amend the return for free and pay any penalties or interest that has accrued as a result of my mistake. Clients are responsible to pay all taxes they legally owe. Clients must also provide complete and accurate information; failure by clients to provide complete and accurate information waives my responsibility to pay any penalties or interest.
