Are My Taxes Simple Enough For Free Tax Usa?

Card image cap

I’ve never filed my own taxes. I’ve used private CPA’s or H&R Block. However my private CPA charged me $750 for my 2023 taxes and H&R Block charged me $605 last year. I will gladly pay a professional for their expertise if its needed but im curious if our situation needs it. The private CPA also sends a MASSIVE workbook with a ton of questions that are honestly over my head and I’m inputting all of our numbers as well as sending copies. H&R Block just asks me a few questions and then has me submit my forms.

My husband is employed and earns a good income. I am self employed but my business went from 6 figures down to $10,000 due to going part time to stay home with my daughter.

Forms H&R Block stated I need to submit.

W2

1099-misc

1099-B

1098

Charitable donations form

5498-SA

Daycare expenses form

Profit and Loss for my business

I‘ve already submitted the forms to H&R Block but they haven’t started anything so I need to decide if I want to go a different route.

Also last year we received a large tax return but we adjusted my husbands withholdings a few months ago.
