How much does a “good” tax guy cost? Yes I know cost doesn’t necessarily = quality. My taxes have been complicated like most with WFH outside of NYC. Recommendations welcome, feel free to DM.

Depends on how long it takes to do your taxes. Mine cost ~400 last year for filing in 5 or so states

They’re still easy to do yourself with Turbo Tax - just make sure you are entering your time in the state you are physically in for Unit 4. Our HR will break it up across your various W2s. Feel free to DM me if you’d like to chat live and I can walk you through doing a multi state return yourself.

Awesome thanks so much A&M1!
