Depends on how complex your taxes are. I pay a decent amount, but I have a consulting company and a ton of business expenses and deductions.

If all you have is a simple W2 and don’t own a house, you’ll never meet the standard deduction if you try to itemize anyway. So just do the short form yourself using one of the free web sites. It will take about 10 minutes, tops.
