I'm considering doing my own tax returns this year and found out the forms are no longer available..i have to download them off the IRS site.
After years of a CPA doing them i think I can complete my own this years since nothing significant has changed in a few years.
anyone else a little hesitant to complete their own?
I have done my own for years and years. Only one year did I have it done - we closed out a business, moved across country and pulled money from a 401 account that year and it was a little overwhelming.
There are many on line services that will probably do it for free with an arrangement with the govt. They will even efile it for you. I've used this for the past couple of years with good results - I chose Freetaxusa dot com as it fit my circumstances best. Just google around for free tax filing - eventually you will find a govt site that lists them all. They have different requirements for free service, so read each one carefully.

Do you prepare your own income tax returns or pay a professional to do it?I jsut went through the ordeal. We tried Turbo Tax this year, and the fee was only $65.00, as opposed to $300 to 400 for a non-CPA and who knows how much for one of those.

The Senator from Nevada, Reid, says a Bain Capital employee told him Mitt Romney did not pay taxes for 10 years. If this proves to be true, does this change anything? Won't some people simply regard Romney as more of a hero, wishing they could do the same thing.

I'm not being funny here,the hubstats yet only change 3 or 4 times a week, if you are lucky.Not to mention hubs take over 24 hours to publish. No mentions about it on the blog, no apologies, it isn't like the issue hasn't been ongoing for a while now...Anybody have any idea? Hope I've missed...
