    People say to go to a tax professional to do your taxes but if you are literally doing the same you do with them and when you do it alone, what’s the difference? Is there any in the outcome?

    • @finder
      @finder  3 года назад +18

      The biggest difference is that working with a tax professional directly gives you the chance to get answers to any tax questions you have immediately - as opposed to having to reach out to customer service if you were going through the online process on your own.
      Working with a tax professional might also be a good idea if your taxes involve complicated investment or business issues. But if your taxes are rather straight-forward, then it might make sense to use the tax software on your own.
      Ultimately - there’s no best way to do your taxes. It really comes down to how complicated your taxes are and how comfortable you are with IRS rules and forms.
      Hope this helps!

    This is the first video I came across and it's very informative. Still looks intimidating but I might give it a shot. Does that program have a practice section where I can fill out the information and see what my refund will be before I file it? My reasoning is that if I see it's similar to what my account has filed for me in the previous years then I know I've done it right.

    • @elizabethromero8630

    the Free File product, which was offered as part of a partnership with the IRS, did not route users to paid products and was truly free for anyone making less than an income threshold. But it was difficult to find. At one point Intuit added code to its website that removed the product from online search engine results. (The company later removed those lines of code.) A subsequent investigation by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration found that in 2019 alone, more than 14 million tax filers paid for online tax prep software from TurboTax and other firms that they could have gotten for free. That amounted to roughly $1 billion in revenue for the industry.

    Last year was the last of at least 10 consecutive years that I will use Turbotax. I bought the disc for home and business, loaded it on my computer and began to do my taxes. Somehow I made a mistake and was switched from the Turbo loaded on my notebook into the Turbotax website. Despite numerous attempts over several weeks to return to the program on my computer I kept getting shifted into the Turbotax website return. I asked the question of their Q&A in many different ways and there was never an answer on how leave the website return and use the program on my notebook. I took my information to a tax service and had them done. I bought the disc and paid the tax service. I finally found a telephone number that someone answered when I went to the Turbotax Investor webpage. I won't go back until they have a better AI Answering Service or phone numbers that have competent employees answering.

    How will IRS determine through TurboTax if I'm a resident alien or non resident alien. Don't remember seeing those options.

    • @Slow.S55
      @Slow.S55 Год назад

      They don't care if you're an alien or not, they also won't investigate your SS as long as you don't commit fraudulent crimes and pay your taxes, and make sure you're not in debt of any kind. That being said hope you're fake/bought SS is good and is not already in trouble with the IRS, or banks. My father is lucky being he's an illegal immigrant but has had good luck with his blackmarket SS, if anything he's both helping himself live a good life making good earnings and having good credit by making his payments on time, while also giving the same SS benefits to whoever actually owns that Social Security. I've always wondered if they ever checked their credit score and said holy shit how do we have good credit.

That was unexpected; and we are back to struggling. Choose a preparation company less evil, people.

      While gas does not count as an education expense, subscriptions for Adobe software required by your studies do. You can learn more here: www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/qualified-ed-expenses
      As for medical copays qualifying as medical expenses, we recommend looking at this article on IRS.gov, as it will vary due to a number of factors: www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc502
      You can also take this quiz on IRS.gov to see if your specific medical copays qualify: www.irs.gov/help/ita/can-i-deduct-my-medical-and-dental-expenses
