To anyone that pays less than $200... do you go to an accountant doing work on the side?

An actual firm?

A friend giving you a discounted rate?



And... do accountants charge you more if you own a house or not? Or if you decide to file separately instead of joint?



I go to HR Block, and we don't own a home.

Re: How much do you pay to have your taxes done?

The accountants I work for seem to charge anywhere from $30 (for like, a clients child) to upwards of $400. But it depends a lot upon what type of paperwork they need to file. I believe that is generally how it is calculated (how many schedules, etc.)

Re: How much do you pay to have your taxes done?

We got to a friend and it is less than $200 for sure, but I know he charges different people differently. He did our taxes last year both as filing jointly and filing seperately and filed the way it worked out better for us.

I used to do my own, but DH has to itemize and to us it is worth paying so we don't miss anything, and I don't have to spend all that time researching how to do it correctly.
