I think the reason is because there is at least the feeling that they have additional education to support their practices - whether that education is adequate is altogether another question. But I think that's one of the reasons that we might be leaning towards "certification" - so that the public at least feels that the preparer knows <i>something</i> (anything?) about taxes.<br /><br />I would also add to your statements that I think an ongoing relationship with your tax preparer is best - this tends to be the reason why many folks discourage use of commercial chain tax preparers. As a tax pro, I don't think you can look at tax in a vacuum - there are facts and circumstances in the lives of each taxpayer that can affect your tax preparation advice. Divorce, children, buying a home, changing your immigration status - these are all things that have black and white tax answers individually but are bigger than that when taken in context.<br /><br />Good series!Kellyhttp://www.taxgirl.comnoreply@blogger.com
