Average tax prep charges

[Christian Mother]

Love my CPA lady...she charged us $363 this yr to file for both my husband and I. She's worth it totally!!

mine carges about that much but she does daycare, my personal, and my Mom and Dads personals.

She is also the 'lady" to go to in my area for daycare taxes.

My husband and I used to do our own, but since I started my daycare, we go to a lady who used to have her own home daycare and now has a tax business. She always has lots of good tips on things I can deduct for daycare. She is very inexpensive, too. This year we paid $169. We do go in with everything all ready and she just plugs in the numbers we give her. The first year we went she gave us a couple of worksheets to summarize the necessary daycare info. I guess I'm getting a better deal than I even realized!
