You know what they say about death and taxes, but did you know:
- By the government's own estimates, it takes the average US taxpayer 28 hours and 30 minutes to complete their 1040 tax return -- a 154% increase since the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
- In 45 random audits of IRS transactions, the General Accounting Office reported 29 were wrong - an error rate of 64%
- In a US Treasury investigation, IRS employees answered taxpayers questions incorrectly about 50% of time
- The IRS publishes and distributes about 8 billion forms and notices a year - laid end to end, that would circle the earth 28 times
"Diane helps take the stress out of tax return preparation. She gives me a list of stuff I need to bring her in advance, which helps me organize my records. She also knows the tax code well and advises me of what I can and can't deduct from my taxes. I am very happy with her services."
