I realized years ago that when doing my own taxes I was probably losing more money than I saved by not hiring someone, especially owning an LLC for a side hustle. Hire a good one though.
Yeah definitely if you have a side hustle and its own company you need an accountant! I'm not that complicated
Rising Star
I've done my own for over 20 years. For the last 8 years or so, I've used Tax Slayer. Since my taxes aren't too complicated, and I use standard deduction, it's quick and easy for me
I agree - I was using a private accountant and wasn’t really happy with her service, so I am also thinking about finding a different Accountant. How is working with a big company like H&R Block ? That’s who I used to use when filing myself
H&R Block sucks. I used them for my second time filing. They are very expensive and not knowledgeable at all. The lady assigned to me added my side hustle income twice. So I asked her “wait, is this normal? Won’t I pay double the taxes this way? And she replied “oh yeah sorry. Good catch!” If your taxes are simple enough, Turbo Tax is a great deal. Less than half the price of HR and their algorithm is better than HR’s “experts”.
I always found I was able to do as good of a job as H&R. I found a CPA that does not take on any more new clients, she let me hire her because of a mutual connection who was already a client. Try to find someone with that type of reputation. Their reputation goes a long way with the IRS too.
I have been doing my own for the last few years but am thinking of hiring someone. I have a few side jobs (1099) and it was a bit confusing last year. Not sure if I did everything correctly and am getting anxious about doing my own again this year.
If you have a side hustle or a rental property, and you’re not sure what you can deduct, then maybe seek out a CPA. But be prepared to have to look around and pay more. The accountant shortage means firms and sole proprietors are shedding 1040-only clients, not taking on more, and/or upping their fees.
If you just have W-2 income, some nominal interest and dividends, and maybe mortgage interest and some charitable contributions, then probably not. TurboTax, TaxSlayer, or the like should be fine.
Yeah I usually use TurboTax. Guess I just want to make sure I'm getting the deductions I'm entitled to
If I did my own I’d be in cuffs 😂😂😂😩🫠
