REVscene Automotive Forum - View Single Post - Independent contractor/expense deductions

instantneedles · 07-20-2019, 06:36 PM

Hi everyone,

I'm currently working as an independent contractor/sole proprietor and am on the road a lot as well.

Therefore, I have several expenses such as car, phone, equipment, etc that I am hoping to get deducted.

I am wondering if it is cheaper to just get turbo tax and try to figure it out on my own, or if it is wiser to get a tax accountant to help me out.

I am just not sure if the cost of getting an accountant to do my work for me would be worth it.
