Whats the quickest and most cost efficient way to do taxes?

[Redlyne_mr2]

Ive got my T4 ready to go and Im just wondering what's the quickest way to file a return? I used to use my dad's accountant but it takes way to long with him. Anybody use H&R block if so what do they charge? thanks

One of those places like H&R can have it done in less htan a week.

I go to liberty tax, they only charge about 40$ and you have the check by the end of the meeting (about 30 min).

Unless you have alot of deductions or T4's these places are the way to go.

I went to H&R last year, I had to wait in the lobby for like 2hrs.

Go to H&R block. Super friendly and a huge help. I was there for like 25mins and all was good to go!
I even got alot of money back in the end!!:thumbsup:

get the tax wiz software from walmart for $30 and you can do 6 of them, charge your friends wach $5 and its paid for... its pretty much idiot proof unless you have a business or soemthing.


i hate H&R went there last year and sat there and the lady didn't ask me any questions, i think she just assumed i didn't have nay dependants and thats why i had to pay

Do it yourself using software. It is so easy. You file over the net and get your return even quicker.

When I file online do I not need to provide any papers, also do i need my receipts from tuition?

If they need it, they will send you a letter and ask for you to send it in. That is what they did with me.

Sweet thanks, I think I can write off my moving expenses as well since I had to move to attend school

you are correct. Don't forget the monthly credit for being a full time or part time student.
