U.S. Tax adviser, C.P.A. for help wit tax credits, filing and SSA advice

[elektrified]

Are there any retired U.S.A. C.P.A.'s in Thailand that offer any services?

 

I want some advice with regard to filing simple 1040EZ or 1040A tax returns, tax credits, etc.

 

Also looking for advice in regard to Social Security and benefits which will come due in the next couple of years.

 

There used to be a retired CPA in Chiang Mai who was good and offered advice and income tax form preparation for US $75.00 per year for complex tax filing. But he has since passed on. Is there anyone else, anywhere in the country? I have seen some ads for large firms in Bangkok charging starting at 10,000 Baht or US $350 per year but I need really simple stuff.

 

Thanks in advance.

I use Deloitte but used to do it myself using Turbo Tax.

I would recommend just buying the software and experimenting with different scenarios.

Have you considered one of the online tax prep companies? They don't offer advise per say but you get walked through the process answering questions as you go . I've used the Turbotax free version for years and find it very satisfactory,

FYI: 1040 EZ and 1040 A forms are going away.  People will now just file 1040 without attachments/schedules.  One always could file the 1040 if one wanted, but of course if one had single employer, simple basic tax situation then the 1040EZ or 1040A were easy.

 

"If you downloaded the sample 2018 Form W-2 or the 2018 General Instructions for Forms W-2 and W-3 before August 15, 2018, please note the following as a result of Form 1040A and its separate instructions not being revised after 2017. (Previous filers of Form 1040A will file Form 1040 for tax years after 2017.)"
