You can probably picture the old era of tax accountants. They worked in large offices with grey carpets and entire rooms full of paper files. If you wanted to get your income tax done, you had to bring in all of your tax documents and sit in their office for a meeting. Going to get your income tax prepared is like having an annual physical checkup at the doctor’s office. You don’t want to go, but you better. Tax rules in the United States are too confusing and risky to try to do it on your own.  Make the appointment, gather the papers, and sit there waiting for your turn: then more work after the meeting. You can’t wait until it’s over!
