Getting Tax Help
For many Americans, filling out their taxes can be a daunting task. And it is little wonder. Currently, the country's tax code weighs in at an astounding 13,000 pages and is over 395,000 million words long. To avoid wading through the complex tax code, taxpayers simply take their standard deduction. But according to the federal government's own studies, doing so can often result in paying more taxes than are owed. In fact, a recent study by the Feds' General Accounting Office showed that 35 percent of taxpayers who took the standard deduction overpaid their taxes by more than $500.
That's why more and more people are seeking tax help in an effort to get all of the deductions they are entitled to. In fact, more than 50 million people sought tax help and had a tax preparer complete their tax return last year.
Several others found they were in a more serious tax situation and sought tax help because the IRS told them they owed money on a previous year's tax return or failed to file their tax return in years' past. Still others needed tax help because the IRS was threatening to garnish their wages or put a lien on their property.
