Individual Tax Services

Pricing & Engagement Structure

Clear Pricing. Thoughtful Preparation. No Surprises.

Our pricing is based on complexity, not just forms.

Every tax return tells a story. Some are straightforward, while others involve investments, rentals, multiple income sources, or planning considerations that require additional care.

To ensure accuracy, compliance, and peace of mind, we use a structured intake process to assess complexity and align your return with the appropriate service tier. This allows us to price fairly, work efficiently, and give your return the attention it deserves.

Individual Tax Preparation — Tiered Pricing

Pricing is determined after completing our intake questionnaire and is based on the complexity of your tax situation.

Tier Typical Complexity Year-1 Pricing Range
Tier 1 – Simple One W-2, minimal extras $250 – $325
Tier 2 – Standard Multiple income sources, dependents, credits $375 – $550
Tier 3 – Advanced Investments, rentals, K-1s $650 – $950
Tier 4 – Complex Multi-state, multiple rentals, advanced reporting $1,050 – $1,500
Returns involving active self-employment, inventory, payroll, sales tax, or ongoing planning may require transition to Business Tax & Accounting Services

Individual Tax Preparation — Add-On Services

Certain situations may require additional work beyond standard return preparation. Add-on services are priced separately based on scope and complexity.

Add-On Price
Additional State Return $150 – $250
Rental Property (Each Additional) $150 – $300
Cryptocurrency (Active Trading) $250 – $500
Late-Season / Expedited Filing +20% – 30%

Add-on pricing applies when services fall outside the standard scope of individual tax preparation. More complex issues may require a separate engagement or transition to Business Tax & Accounting Services .
