Hello,

I am an E. A. and I signed up with TaxFyle in November. I was hoping to get some accounting clients because I only have one. I already have a lot of tax clients but I could use more. I was also hoping for some 990 tax returns because those have different due dates. I got NO work offers till recently and now most of the offers are to do 1040 taxes, plus 1 or 2 states for about $60! That is how much the software costs me and of course, I get to pay for that too. Also, there is no way to see what you are volunteering to do... This could be (and probably is) a tax return with 27 pages of Schedule D transactions, 15 rental properties, 13 K-1s with stuff on them that you will need to research, etc. So I would be paying about $60 for software to work for FREE for about 30 or 40 hours. That is not even taking into account how many times the client will come up with "one more tax document" after you finish the work and you will have to re-do it again and again..... because that is what clients do, right? To make matters worse I actually agreed to do a few of those because I was curious.... and I was promptly rejected because some other desperate/ starving accountant beat me out of the job in FIVE MINUETS!! That is very scary to know that there are that many accountants out there who need work that bad! I have had no offers of accounting work because pretty much no one wants to pay for that anymore. I am a QuickBooks ProAdvisor with NO clients that use QBO
