I do them myself, but I use TurboTax to do it to make sure I get it right, or at least as close to right as I am capable of doing.

No, I use an accountant; not that my taxes are complicated but I prefer to have a professional who is up on any tax law changes; that is not me!

I have always filed my own taxes.  With mine being so simple, I don't know why anyone would do it any other way.  But my goal is to create more income from multiple sources where I am forced to pay someone else to do it.

No.  Too afraid I will mess up something.

I probably could if I wasn't so fearful of the IRS; it looks like just plugging the correct numbers onto the correct lines.

Yes. I started filing my own taxes after my regular tax preparer passed away a few years ago. I've had no problems so far.

We usually do our taxes ourselves using turbo tax.

I Have had my taxes done by a CPA for about 4 years now. I like the idea that he knows what he is doing and can maximize my deductions, etc. I know it costs me more, but that's okay. I guess the price you pay....

Yes. I have always filed my own taxes. The programs are so simple to use, I really don't understand why people would pay to have them done.
