How much does Cloister Tax Services charge?
The prices charged by Cloister Tax Services for tax preparation have always been comparable to the "franchise" tax firms, and almost always less than those charged by the local professional with three initials at the end of his signature. This being said, estimating the price of a tax return is like estimating the weight of a box without ever getting a chance to hold it in your hands. Every tax picture is different. The simplest tax returns typically cost under $100 to prepare. Prices work their way up from there depending on the complexity of the return.
What makes a tax return complex?
The more forms that are required to properly file a tax return, the more complex it is said to be. Additional forms are required to report any number of circumstances that affect your taxes. Investments, home-ownership, income from sources other than wages, day care, college tuition... all of these factors can complicate a tax return. Cloister Tax Services' promise to you is that we will always use exactly the number forms that are necessary to file your return correctly, and we will never file optional forms unless their financial outcome outweighs the cost of us preparing them.
Why hire a professional tax preparer?
The ever increasing complexity of tax law, combined with the ever increasing complexity of our lives, means that eventually, almost everyone will need to reach out to a qualified tax professional for advice and assistance.
For some, however, the decision to contact a tax professional comes too late. Although most mistakes made on tax preparation are truly honest errors, the IRS computers are becoming increasingly adept at finding miscalculations, omission, and errors on tax returns. This can often result in a recalculation of taxes owed, or worse... and audit.
Cloister Tax Services is here to navigate you around the kinds of problems that often befall those who choose to go-it-themselves.
