What is the Remote-Hybrid service?
Remote-Hybrid service is having your taxes done at our office and doing them yourself with your home computer. Using the Remote-Hybrid way, you put in all your information on your computer and it is relayed to your designated computer in our office. You will be on a conference call with a coach and other people preparing their taxes at the same time but each client will be using a different computer in our office assuring confidentially.
The coach will help you all the way.
The old way
The traditional way of doing your taxes is with a series of forms and schedules that you have to wade through and complete.
The new way
The modern say is to buy a computer program at a retail store and do your taxes by yourself. Let's explore this method for a moment. We have many clients that have gone this route and tell stories such as:
-
-
- Complaint: Time that it takes to go to the store and purchase this software
- Complaint: Installing the software some have said takes 2 or 3 hours. Some gave up and had the child (not the parent) next door install it.
- Complaint: The cost is typically $39.95
- Complaint: Entering the information is a long and drawn out process and some have told us it took hours or days.
- Complaint: Bottom Line. Clients have to pay more than they expected and decided they should have come to us in the first place.
- Complaint: Additional cost and work, including returning to the store for the state return program, another $29.95
- Finally if filed electronically: additional input and cost.
The Remote-Hybrid way:
Using the Remote-Hybrid tax service you will save time, gasoline and money.
