Clear. Fair. Based on Complexity.

At Two Teachers’ Tax Service, tax preparation fees are based on the level of work required, not a one-size-fits-all flat fee. Each return is reviewed individually to ensure accuracy, IRS compliance, and that all applicable credits and deductions are properly applied.

All prices listed are starting prices. Final fees depend on the forms, schedules, and calculations needed to complete the return.

Simple Tax Return

Starting below $200 – $250

Generally includes Form 1040 with W-2 income, the standard deduction, basic interest or retirement income, Social Security benefits, dependents, one state return, e-filing, direct deposit, and a prior-year return review. Best for individuals and families with straightforward tax situations.

Moderate Tax Return

Starting at $250–$425

Includes everything in a Simple Return, plus items such as itemized deductions, investment income, capital gains, self-employment income, rental income, depreciation, business deductions, QBI, or multi-state filings. Common for taxpayers with investments, small businesses, or rental properties.

Complex Tax Return

Starting at $425–$650+

Applies to returns with higher complexity, including multiple businesses or rentals, significant depreciation, passive activity losses, Alternative Minimum Tax, advanced QBI calculations, or complex multi-state or nonresident filings. These returns require additional analysis and compliance review.
