Common questions
How much does an accountant charge for a personal tax return?
A straightforward 1040 typically runs $250 to $600. Rentals, K-1s, equity compensation or multi-state filing push it to $600 to $1,500. Anyone quoting before seeing last year's return is guessing.
Is it worth paying an accountant to do my taxes?
It usually pays off once your return stops being a single W-2: self-employment income, rental property, equity compensation, a house sale or a state move. For a simple return, software is generally the better value.
What should I bring to a tax accountant?
Last year's return, all income forms (W-2, 1099, K-1), records of estimated payments, and documentation for anything that changed during the year. Last year's return is the single most useful item.
