Whether you are the owner of a corporation, an independent contractor or willfully employed in a profession of your choice, none of you can escape tax season. Mostly, people only have to worry about their personal taxes, but corporate owners have the added burden of ensuring their corporate tax returns are also completed accurately and on time. Trying to file your own taxes is possible nowadays with powerful software which asks all the right questions and is programmed to optimize your credits and tax breaks.
Tax Regulations
However, do-it-yourself tax preparation is only possible if your tax situation is relatively simple (you are an employee without many investments or other possible credits). This situation applies to a limited number of people. For the rest of us, a detailed knowledge of tax rules, at least the ones that apply to our situation, is absolutely necessary if we want to save ourselves from paying too much tax. Yet, have you ever tried to pick up a tax book and read tax regulations? Even accountants shudder at the idea! There are precious few people who enjoy torturing themselves as such.
Corporate tax rules are even more convoluted than personal tax rules and the worst part is every successive government changes the rules based on their election platform, so a credit which you took advantage of in the current year may disappear by the time it’s time to file next year’s personal or corporate tax return.
