Making the decision to use a tax service in RI rather than completing your taxes on your own is a very sound choice. While your taxes may appear to be very simple filing on your own, either as a small business owner or an individual, can result in several costly mistakes. One of the most common mistakes is in failing to claim eligible deductions, resulting in a lower return or a higher income tax payment required. The other common mistake is taking the wrong deductions, which can sometimes result in an audit.
While using a tax service in RI is a good choice, you do have to take some time and choose the service that is right for you. You definitely want to work with professionals in that have the training, education and experience to accurately and correctly complete your taxes. You should also look for professionals that have the qualification to do your taxes either are a CPA or other designation.
Check Fees
Every tax service in RI will bill differently to complete taxes. Some charge a standard flat rate based on the complexity of your return while other may charge on an hourly rate. There are some tax services in RI that may also charge based on a percentage of your actual return. This is the least effective option if you want to budget and compare prices between services.
Asks Questions

In some cases, especially if you have provided notes and documentation, receipts and records may be self-explanatory but a good tax service in RI will ask just to make sure you haven’t missed anything or failed to report or claim some source of income.
