...how much is it? We just got our bill from our tax accountant and it seems a bit steep. How much do you pay?
-
Ours charges $200 but saves us way more than that in deductions.
-
$500 is the going rate around here, plus a little more if yours are particularly complex
-
It's $250, plus $75 every 3 months for estimated taxes. My DH works for himself on the side and we own a rental property, so our taxes are slightly more complicated than normal.
-
I would say ours are slightly complicated in that we own 2 condos that we rent, but not too crazy otherwise. Our bill was $690 and we live in themidwest so not a high cost of living area...
-
I think we pay around $500. Our taxes aren't super complicated.
-
Our first year, we paid $750 for household and DH's nascent small business. This year, we paid $2000.
-
CPA's generally charge at least $250 an hour, we are expensive, but not as expensive as attorneys:)
-
650 I think. That includes a w2, 1099, and 2 schedule Cs. Plus she does my quarterly taxes for me and gives me tax advice throughout the year.
-
$200
-
350. Zero complex issues
-
@MrsBeluga: A fellow CPA on HB! Way to go momma! I left public for private a year ago... you are awesome
@Amelieisme: when I was in public accounting, we couldn't get a return out the door for less than $500. I don't think you are paying an unreasonable amount--though I know it hurts!
-
$0 my public accountant friend does them for free.
-
$300
-
Wow, the 140 that we pay our CPA looks like a bargain now.
-
$190, a little complicated because of my Husband's job and military.
-
Around a grand. Our taxes are somewhat complex but I think we're going to look into switching accountants for next year because I'm pretty sure we're being overcharged.
-
When I was self employed in the US with a schedule C I paid H&R block about $450.
Here I pay €900.
-
$50, local in town accountant.
-
Around $175.
-
When I did returns on the side, I charged around $500 - $2,500 based on complexity.
-
Ours fluctuates every year, but average is about $700? Ouch!
-
I think it's around $200
-
Ouch, this thread makes me very grateful that my ex-accountant mom does my taxes for free! For friends, she would charge about 50-100 and then whatever it costs her to file. My cheap hubby would do our taxes for us if my mom couldn't anymore. At these costs I think it is worth looking into TurboTax
-
About 500$ for mine and DH's taxes.
-
Just over $100 for a local CPA. Very basic for us.
-
Around $300 the past couple of years. Our is basic with a few investment forms, etc.
-
300. DH has a small side business but it's not complicated.
