My husband does them using a popular tax preparation software package. Our situation is generally pretty simple.

I've been doing my own taxes since my first job at 16. Mom taught me how and I've done them every year since. Using a computer has made the task so much easier and faster.

My mother taught me how to fill out a 1040 as a child. After that I started doing them for her. She hated math. On occasion, she has an expert do it for her. I use to do myself, using a 1040EZ, now I use a tax website.

My husband used to do them, but when our tax returns and investment portfolio got more complicated, we decided to let a CPA do it. The additional 87,000 IRS agents that the Biden administration has hired will increase the odds of an audit, so a CPA will be well worth the money it costs.

I don't need the stress. It is well worth the cost to have my accountant do them. He is so nice and knowledgeable.

Also, when I was a child, my father used to do our taxes. I am one of 4 children so he had to list 6 people and all of our medical, dental ect. He would take a whole weekend and the tension in the house was really bad. I guess that has caused tax PTSD in my head, LOL!

They have gotten too complicated. I used to do our taxes using H&R Block software. Each of the last 6 years there are more and more changes to the tax code. We've even had to amend our taxes because of the "updates" that only show up in April.

I used to always do it myself. But, after getting married, having a child, having investments, etc., we decided to have someone do them for us who knows all the ways to increase the refund.

The effects of inflation are cumulative. 19.3% up since January, 2020. Some items are up much more. Foe lower to middle income inflation remains very problematic. Although the rate of overall inflation. Is lower, it is still adding costs each and every month.

The MCU missed the chance of giving us a WBH, now it wouldn't make sense at all. WBH is one of the most powerful and angrier versions of Hulk due to what happened to him, I don't see any way the MCU can replicate his anger without the original story. It'll just look forced and pretty bad imo.
