Why Consider a Career as a Tax Professional?

Each year, millions of Americans pay a professional to prepare and file their tax returns. Some people think that the tax laws are going to be simplified, which could potentially put tax professionals out of business. Yet, each year Congress makes more changes, which confuses and frustrates taxpayers and causes them to seek out the help of a tax professional. Tax professionals are here to stay!

Becoming a tax professional can be very lucrative. The average charge for a tax return is $150 - $200, with some a bit lower and the more complicated returns costing much more. Even if you're just starting out and prepare only 50-75 fairly simple returns in your first year, that could generate anywhere from $7500-$15,000 in just 3 months time! With the average monthly household income around $3,750, you could earn that easily in your first year as a tax professional!

What's even more exciting is that as your business grows through new clients and referrals, your future earnings potential is much greater! Plus, you can still enjoy your summers and holidays because most of your business in generated during the concentrated filing season from mid-January through mid-April! Or you could provide financial services for your tax clients and generate income year-round!
