A standard federal and state return starts at $325. Returns with itemized deductions start at $450, and rental properties, investment sales or a second state add to the fee. We quote the price in writing once we have seen last year's return, so you know the figure before we start.
Every return is prepared by one person and reviewed by a second before you sign it. If the IRS or the state sends a letter about a return we prepared, we answer it at no charge for the first hour.

- Standard 1040 with state: from $325

Questions about individual tax returns
When should I send my documents?
By March 15 if you want the return filed before April 15. After that we file an extension and complete the return in the order documents arrive.
Can you amend a return someone else prepared?
Yes. Amended returns start at $275 and we tell you first whether the change is worth making.
