Fees & What to Expect
Understanding Tax Preparation Fees
Tax returns vary widely in complexity. Some involve a single W-2 and standard deduction. Others include businesses, rental properties, investments, trusts, or complex tax issues.
For this reason, professional tax preparation fees vary based on:
- number of forms and schedules
- businesses or rental properties
- investment activity
- prior-year corrections
- tax planning and advisory time
Before beginning work we provide an engagement letter explaining how fees are determined so there are no surprises.
