MyTaxAuction Shows How a Tax Professional Saves Taxpayers Time

March 12, 2012 — Online tax preparation bidding service, MyTaxAuction presents ways that people can make their tax preparation a less stressful experience in their new eBook, “5 ½ Reasons you LOSE MONEY Preparing Your Own Taxes”.  The book emphasizes that people can lose money in a number of ways and that hiring a professional to prepare their taxes is actually better than using online software programs. 

According to the eBook, the average taxpayer spent 23 hours to prepare and file their taxes in 2010.  The book further states:  “Simple math tells you that, at $15 per hour, you’re virtually spending an average of $345 on your taxes, whether you hire a professional or not. It’s what some call the “hidden cost” of doing your own taxes.  Sure, you’re not spending any money on a tax professional, but you’re dedicating an inordinate amount of time and effort toward a task that you’re not accustomed to, consequently limiting your earning potential for approximately 23 hours.”

Tax law is complicated and every year there are new laws and changes, lengthening the amount of time it takes people to prepare their taxes.  MyTaxAuction recognizes that the average person is not a tax expert and mistakes can be made, which can mean that person even more time and money for the tax payer later on in the form of a tax audit.  Hiring a tax professional is an effective way for tax payers to make sure that their taxes are done correctly. 

“Nothing compares to a proactive tax professional who has a vested interest in keeping and retaining your business for years to come,” the eBook states.  The book offers a list of tips for tax payers to remember when preparing to meet with their tax preparer in order to shave off some of the cost for the professional service. 

MyTaxAuction offers taxpayers the opportunity to choose their tax professional through an online bidding auction.  Clients set up a free account and fill out a generic tax profile.  Professional tax preparers review the profile and submit a bid for services which includes the complete price for a federal and a state tax preparation and filing process.  Members experience the convenience of online tax filing while obtaining the expertise of a licensed tax professional.  To understand how the online tax preparation bidding service works, visit www.MyTaxAuction.com.
