TAX PREPARATION:

2017 was the first year I gave it a go filing my taxes via tax preparation software.

Prior to this I had been paying a local CPA $600/year to file my taxes (remember 2018 tax laws no longer allow this fee to be deducted).

Given that I had a fully paid off home, I later found out that I was getting nothing more than the standard allowable deduction despite paying a premium.

I used the H&R Block software and found it very intuitive with a very easy user interface.

It was helpful to have the prior year’s professionally completed tax return on hand and I was able to quickly input the necessary information.

I have already purchased the 2018 tax software program and it should be an even easier preparation this year as it populates last years return automatically.
