Combined benefit of Human tax consultant plus turbotax

[Prasanna K.]

I am aware that turbotax has their own agents who can help. But is there a way that an independent tax consultant can help a tax filer via turbotax. I love the security (comparatively) and self service document and data entry nature of turbotax. However if an independent tax consultant has a feature to double check and make modifications that would be great. I would be more comfortable doing this with a consultant i know and have vetted rather than one that turbotax picks for me. Is there a way to do it (other than sharing password). and are there good tax consultants who will do it. If so, would love recommendation of such tax consultants in Austin area

@Prasanna K. I agree with the other posters. Spend a few hundred per year and have an accountant. They'll probably save you thousands and will save you lots of time.
