I just use turbo tax...
Same with flying jets.Accountants are overrated. It's not that difficult, just do a little reading.
Anyone have an accountant that doesn't wait until the last damn minute, and then hit you up with a ton of questions on April 14th? I haven't been all that impressed with accountants in general. Used one when my wife and I filed married/separate for medical expenses related to in vitro, but by the time the guy filed it, someone had stolen my wife's ID and filed on her behalf. They completely left us hanging dealing with the fallout.
Two people who are entirely worthless in Murdoughnut's mind: general contractor and accountants.
I am sole member of one LLC and partner in another. In addition, I own a rental property with my sister. That's enough to produce a 30 page return.Accountants are overrated. It's not that difficult, just do a little reading.

Tax law shouldn't be that complicated.
Intuit develops crap software.Usually our accountant will send the tax questionnaire out by mid January with appointments starting in late February. I've never had a follow up question more than a week after my initial appointment.
I could pretty much do it myself, however I don't think Intuit (WHO I FLIPPING HATE ANYWAY) is going to send an accountant or tax attorney in with me during my audit.
Especially an enrolled agent that can actually pick up a phone and talk to somebody at the IRS.I think I average about 40 pages. Ehh, drop a hundred fifty bucks on an accountant or half of that to assume all liability and do it myself...
Leave it to the pros!

My accountant left me in the cold when I was audited 6-months ago on HSA expenditures. I had to fight it to the point of filing a case in federal tax court before the IRS went back and reviewed it and fixed the mistake. Couldn't even get the accountant to reply to my e-mails about it.
My guy is the same way and out of respect for his generosity with his time, I get my act together in January when his office is very quiet.I think you need a new accountant.
Mine has a policy that if you have a question or if you leave her a voicemail, still will absolutely make contact with you before the end of business that day.

That is bad. Really bad. But they are not all like that. Mine is never more than a phone call/email away, always responsive and timely. And being an EA she would be there for me/represent me if the IRS ever decided to give me grief.My accountant left me in the cold when I was audited 6-months ago on HSA expenditures.
