5 Frequently Asked Questions About Tax Companies

What is the difference between a tax preparation company and a CPA?

The main difference is scope. Tax preparation companies prepare and file returns, while Certified Public Accountants (CPAs) provide deeper financial guidance and long-term tax strategy. 

Factor Tax preparation company CPA
Main role Prepares and files tax returns Provides tax and financial expertise
Services Tax return preparation Tax planning, accounting, audits
Training Varies by preparer Licensed accounting professional
Complexity handled Simple to moderate tax preparation Complex taxes and business finances
Representation Limited ability with tax authorities Can represent clients
Typical clients Individuals, small businesses Businesses, high-income individuals

How do tax firms typically charge?

Tax companies usually charge either a flat fee or an hourly rate. Most simple individual returns cost about $200 to $300, while more complex returns often run from $300 to $800. 

Pricing model Typical cost How it works Best for
Flat fee $200 to $300 for simple returns One set price for the return Simple personal taxes
Flat fee for complex return $300 to $800 Higher fixed price based on forms and complexity  Itemized deductions, self-employment, investments 
Hourly rate $100 to $200 You pay for the time spent on the work Complex or unclear cases
State return add-on $50 to $150 Extra charge for filing state taxes  Federal + state filling
Amendment or revision $50 to $300 Extra charge to fix or update a filed return Corrected returns

Tax companies usually raise prices when returns become more complex. Multiple income sources, self-employment, rental property, investments, and business filings all increase the cost. Large firms, CPAs, and firms in high-cost cities also tend to charge more. 

Can tax companies represent me in an audit?

No. Only certain licensed tax professionals can represent you in a tax audit. 

Professional  Can represent you in an audit Notes
Certified Public Accountant (CPA)  Yes Full representation rights before the IRS
Enrolled Agent (EA)  Yes Federally licensed tax specialist
Tax attorney Yes Handles complex disputes and legal cases
Tax preparation company Sometimes Only if the preparer is a CPA or EA
Unlicensed tax preparer No Cannot represent clients before the IRS

Most tax companies prepare and file tax returns, but cannot represent clients during an audit unless they employ licensed professionals such as CPAs or Enrolled Agents. Only those credentials allow full representation before the IRS. 

Do best tax companies offer Identity Protection (IP) PINs?

No. Tax companies do not issue Identity Protection PINs. 

The IRS issues the Identity Protection PIN directly to taxpayers to prevent tax fraud and identity theft. Tax companies can help you request or manage the PIN during tax filing, but they cannot generate or assign one. 

The PIN is a six-digit code that must be included when filing a tax return. It confirms your identity and prevents someone else from filing a return using your Social Security number. 

What happens if a tax company has a data breach?

Tax preparation companies must report the breach, notify clients, and take steps to stop tax fraud. 

If a tax company experiences a data breach, federal rules require immediate action to protect taxpayer information and prevent fraudulent filings. 

Required actions include: 

  • Report the breach to the IRS to help block fraudulent tax returns linked to stolen taxpayer data. 
  • Notify state tax agencies and law enforcement, such as the FBI or Secret Service. 
  • Inform affected clients that their personal or financial information may be compromised. 
  • Investigate the breach by hiring cybersecurity or forensic experts to identify how the data was accessed and stop further exposure. 

Tax preparation firms must also follow the FTC Safeguards Rule, which requires them to maintain a written security plan that protects taxpayer data.
