Tax Preparation-Here is a Great Solution
When it comes to getting your taxes done, you have a few options to choose from. You can choose to do your taxes yourself or go to a tax specialist to get it done. Most individuals try to file their taxes on their own.
When it comes to tax preparation, you want to know that your taxes are filed accurately and on time. This is why some individuals choose to see an accountant or tax specialist for tax preparation. They want confidence in knowing the information on their tax returns is correct.
But tax accountants can cost big bucks. This is why many people try to file their taxes on their own. In the past, individuals have used IRS tax publications for instructions on which forms to file and how to fill them out. This can be time-consuming and nerve-wrecking because the chance of human error is so great.
Luckily, the Internet has brought us a great solution to our tax preparation worries. These days, you can use online tax filing programs to get the job done. Gone are the days of reading complicated IRS publications and hoping that you have filled in your information correctly. When you file your taxes online, you can take comfort that your tax return is accurate.
You can download tax preparation programs online or buy them at an office supply store. They range about $50, which is less than paying a tax accountant. However, your best bet is to choose a tax preparation program that is web-based so you can skip the download and save some time. Tax preparation websites offer web-based tax preparation for as low as $20, which saves you even more money than the former option.
How do Tax Preparation Programs Work?
Tax preparation programs are designed to be easy to use, even if you have never filed taxes in the past. It first guides you to select the right tax form, whether it is the 1040, 1040EZ, or 1040A.
From there, all you have to do is get your W2's, 1099s, receipts, and other deduction documents together. The tax preparation program will take you through each section of the tax return. The best part is the program will tell you exactly where to find the right numbers on your documents to enter into the form. Help is always available at the click of a button, and a deduction finder will ensure that you haven't missed a single deduction opportunity.
Basically, it's a game of fill-in-the-blanks. When you are all finished, you will have the choice of filing your taxes electronically. You can also print copies for your own record and ask to receive your money by direct deposit, which will save you a trip to the bank and get your refund money much faster.
The benefits of online tax preparation are obvious. It's the most convenient and hassle-free way to file your taxes. You can find more information on tax preparation and online tax filing programs by visiting the IRS website.

Where to Deduct Tax Preparation Fees
Where should an individual taxpayer deduct tax preparation fees? The obvious answer might be on Schedule A of Form 1040 as a miscellaneous deduction. Are tax preparation fees deductible only on Schedule A for all taxpayers? Thankfully, the answer is no.
Deducting tax preparation fees on Schedule A will provide little or no benefit for most taxpayers because the total miscellaneous deductions must exceed two percent of the taxpayer's adjusted gross income to provide any benefit. In addition, the taxpayer's total itemized deductions must usually exceed the standard deduction amount to provide any tax benefit.
The IRS ruled in Rev. Rul. 92-29 that taxpayers may deduct tax preparation fees related to a business, a farm, or rental and royalty income on the schedules where the taxpayer reports such income.
A taxpayer who is self-employed may deduct the portion of the tax preparation fees related to the business, including schedules such as depreciation schedules, on Schedule C of Form 1040 as a business expense. The tax preparation fees deducted on Schedule C save the taxpayer income tax and self-employment tax.
A taxpayer who is self-employed as a farmer would deduct the portion of the tax preparation fees related to the farm on Schedule F of Form 1040. The tax preparation fees deducted on Schedule F save the taxpayer income tax and self-employment tax.
A taxpayer who has rental and/or royalty income reported on Schedule E of Form 1040 would deduct the portion of the tax preparation fees related to the rental and/or royalty income on Schedule E. The tax preparation fees deducted on Schedule E save the taxpayer income tax. However, the tax preparation fees deducted on Schedule E do not save the taxpayer any self-employment tax because the rental and/or royalty income reported on Schedule E is not subject to self-employment tax.
A taxpayer may not deduct all of the tax preparation fees on Schedules C, E, and F of Form 1040. The tax preparer should provide a statement to the taxpayer that indicates how much of the tax preparation fee was related to the taxpayer's business, farm, and/or rental and/or royalty income. The taxpayer may deduct the remainder of the tax preparation fee only on Schedule A.
If the tax preparer does not provide the taxpayer with a detailed statement showing how much of the tax preparation fee was for the taxpayer's business, farm, and/or rental and/or royalty income, the taxpayer shoud ask the tax preparer for an itemized statement. If the tax preparer will not provide an itemized statement, the taxpayer should use a reasonable allocation. In that case, the taxpayer should seriously consider using a different tax preparer next year.
Here is an example. Assume that the taxpayer is self-employed and also owns rental real estate. The tax preparation fee for the taxpayer's Form 1040 and related schedules for 2005 was $600. The tax preparer states that of the $600 total fee, $300 was related to the taxpayer's business, $200 was related to the rental real estate, and the remainng $100 was related to other parts of the taxpayer's income tax return. The taxpayer paid the $600 in February 2006.
On the taxpayer's income tax return for 2006, the taxpayer may deduct the $600 tax preparation fee as follows: $300 on Schedule C, $200 on Schedule E, and $100 on Schedule A as a miscellaneous deduction.
