Please help. Would love to know where you go as personal recommendations go a long way for me.
Thanks in advance!

I am in the financial services industry, and I work with accountants constantly. Any quality accountant/CPA will charge more than H&R Block, regardless of the simplicity of the return. It's just a matter of training/background/education/etc., economics, economies of scale, etc. Even if a return takes thirty minutes, every accountant I know has a minimum charge which equates to more than an half-hour of billable time. While I never recommend tax preparation services, perhaps you should consider one of H&R Block's competitors. Good luck.
