But not everyone's comfortable doing their own return, so many people use an accountant or tax agent to handle the process. Now there's a middle course. H&R Block - a familiar name thanks to its network of more than 350 offices around Australia - now offers a new online service. Clients can prepare their tax returns online and have it checked by an H&R Block accountant before it is lodged with the ATO. This service costs a flat $A49. "The online tax program is occupational-based, which takes people through the work related expenses that are common to their occupation and helps ensure they receive all they are entitled to," said Frank Brass, regional director at H&R Block. The company also has an established service involving an online interview (much like consulting an H&R Block tax agent without visiting the office), after which the company handles the preparation and lodgement. Prices start at $A110. |
