EasyTaxUSA CPA Review

CPAs are licensed by their state after passing a demanding national exam, and they must complete continuing education every year to stay licensed. Like enrolled agents and tax attorneys, CPAs also have unlimited rights to represent taxpayers before the IRS, which means the advice you get comes from someone qualified to stand behind it.

Bring your current return or draft, last year’s return, and your income forms (W-2s and 1099s). Include mortgage and student loan interest statements, records of charitable gifts, childcare and education costs, retirement or HSA contributions, business expenses if you are self-employed, and any letters from the IRS or your state.

Common ones include the Earned Income Tax Credit, the Child and Dependent Care Credit, education credits, the Saver’s Credit for retirement contributions, student loan interest, IRA and HSA contributions, and for the self-employed, business expenses, the home office deduction, and the deduction for half of self-employment tax.

Yes. If your CPA spots something that was missed in a previous year, you can generally file an amended return to claim it within three years of when you filed or two years of when you paid the tax, whichever is later. Our Tax Return Amendment service can take it from there.

No one can promise you won’t be audited, but a CPA can help you avoid the issues that most often draw IRS attention: income that doesn’t match the forms the IRS received, deductions that look unusually large for your income, repeated business losses, and claims without documentation to back them up.

Absolutely. Your first tax year is $119.95 and your second year is only $99.95. Each year is reviewed on its own, and looking at a few years together is often the best way to spot patterns and catch every refund you are still eligible to claim.
