Now I'm going to have every tax accountant yelling at me...
If your taxes are somewhat simple...W2's, mortgage, dependants, IRA's, etc...nothing out of the ordinary such as selling a business, owning a business, moving across states...you CAN do them yourself. Go to your local store (Staples, Office Max, etc.) and buy the Turbo Tax, or Taxcut (the one I prefer) and save the $100's of dollars!! It's $30 to buy the program and you have the option of having H&R Block stand behind your return. I know I'm completely defeating my purpose of becoming an accountant by telling everyone this...but this is a FRUGAL website...I think I can pass on the savings.
