While this is certainly true of many people you could be actually causing more harm than good by going it alone.

Having a proper Tax Strategy throughout the year may help you from having to file an amended tax return or from having your tax forms returned due to a misprint or miscalculation. While an amended tax return or a tax extension may be helpful it could also be avoided through proper Tax Strategy.
