Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) January 27, 2006
About 3 million taxpayers who previously used the TeleFile system will be forced to look for other alternatives. Since August 15, 2005 the IRS TeleFile system has been discontinued — the TeleFile system allowed taxpayers to use a telephone to file basic tax returns and extensions — because of declining use and the growth of other electronic filing alternatives, such as Free File, the IRS decided to discontinue the service. Legacy Tax & Financial Services a Los Angeles based tax preparation firm is positioning itself as another alternative through their call-in tax preparation service. Legacy Tax & Financial Services principal Timothy J. Lozott points out that even though Free File will allow many taxpayers to file their taxes for free, a taxpayer may still be subject to a fee depending on which Free File partner they select and if they don’t meet certain criteria. In addition, if a taxpayer utilizes the Free File option their return is considered self-prepared.
TeleFilers who are accustomed to the convenience of entering information over the telephone after having self-prepared their tax return should find the service offered by Legacy Tax & Financial Services as a welcome alternative. Previous TeleFile users will notice two major difference though when they who use Legacy Tax & Financial Services call-in tax preparation feature, 1) they will actually be able to speak to a live tax preparer who will prepare and file their taxes for them, and 2) having a live person prepare and file their taxes their taxes won’t be considered self-prepare. This is important because there are several advantages to having your tax return professionally prepared. Studies show that people who have their returns prepared by a professional pay less in taxes. A professional is trained in tax preparation, and some States require a tax preparer to go through certain qualifying education and be bonded. A customer of Legacy Tax & Financial Services can have access to a tax professional year round to answer their tax related questions, or advice when their circumstances are changing such as buying a new house, getting or changing to a new job, whether to purchase or lease a car, obtaining a home equity loan, and more without paying anything extra. And, the majority of taxpayers have their taxes professionally prepared even the IRS indicates that about 60 percent of all taxes filed are prepared by a professional.
The Legacy Tax & Financial Services call-in tax preparation service is easy to use. First, taxpayers gather their tax documents and call a toll-free number and speak to a live tax preparer. Next, the tax preparer may ask some additional clarifying information. Once the tax preparer has completed the tax return, it will be double checked for errors and formatted for e-file submission. At this time the tax preparer may also discuss some tax advantages that the taxpayer may also be eligible for. Then, the tax preparer will email, fax, or mail a form(s) that must be signed by the taxpayer and sent to the tax preparer office. Finally, when the tax preparer receives the signed form(s) the return will be submitted to the IRS and State if applicable. The taxpayer will have several options on how they and when would like to receive their refund, which the tax preparer will discuss while preparing the tax return. The call-in toll-free number to have taxes professionally prepared by Legacy Tax & Financial Services is (888) 829-1580.
