| How much does H&R Block usually charge to file your taxes? Posted by finchmeister08 I dont trust myself doing it cause i'm bound to screw something up.Reply Back to Top |
| Depends on what how complex your stuff is. Anywhere from free to $400ish for most people. Reply Back to Top |
| I'll just end up have a normal file with just one W-2 and im pretty sure i'll have no special deductions. Reply Back to Top |
| Not much in your case. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Croacka on 2/3 at 12:24 pm to finchmeister08 It's better to just do it yourself using an online helper It's nice to have some idea of where your money is going and what you can deduct As your situations change each year, it gets a little more complicated but you learn as you go I've done mine for the last 6-7 years by myself Reply Back to Top |
| well, my sis did mine on turbo tax's website last year. seemed easy for her. Reply Back to Top |
| I always use the HR block software. My tax situation is usually the following: - 2 W2s - 1 1099-MISC - 1 1099-INT My deductions/credits/adjustments include mortgage interest, teacher expenses, child care costs, state income tax, student loan interest, child tax credit, donations, and property taxes. Usually enough deductions to itemize. The software is pretty simple. H&R Block in person would charge a lot for my situation, and the software is like $30 with 5 free federal efiles.

| It's pretty hard to screw up simple returns Reply Back to Top |
| Just do turbotax. I've got a 20% off link if anyone wants it. Reply Back to Top |
| If you just have a simple return you can get federal done free until the fifteenth of this month and state will be 39.99. Might come out cheaper than with the software. I would second just learning to do it on your own with the software. It's good to know and in your situation not that complicated. Reply Back to Top |

| Someone I know went to H&R block with retirement income and one w-2. They charged them $130 just for that. You would pay basically the same going to a CPA and you are getting someone to do your taxes that knows a lot more. Reply Back to Top Refresh |
