What level of tax professional does someone in the OP's situation need? Will a trip to the local H&R block sort it, or does he need to look for someone more specialized and if so, how would he identify them?
- kls 16y agoHe needs a CPA in a situation like this, mine a very good one for my area charges around $600 for my taxes and that is a "Dump Papers" job. In other words I dump the papers off and they figure it all out. It would be around $300 for a here is all of my information, it's all organized find stuff I have missed. Every year, with out fail he has paid for himself and then more. The first two years I organized everything and did the online DIY tax thing as a reference. The first year he came in $6000 over the best I could do on the DIY stuff. I can't to stress it to people enough, if you are a professional making over $60k, you cannot afford to not have a CPA. You are without a doubt walking away from money.
- dotBen 16y agoI wonder if some of the problem the OP is in this mess is because he's either using a do-it-yourself tax return system and not made the correct deductions or he's gone to an HR Block 'chop shop' who have not listened/understood his income streams. I'm not sure CPA is needed (my rule is >$100k total income, use a CPA else just a 'tax attorney'/'accountant' type person). But someone who understands these things would be helpful.
