I have used the aarp tax people to do my taxes for the last 4 years. I have always went online and did a "practice" return to have an idea of how much to expect. My diy and aarp have been within a few dollars ~ up or down. So this year I just went and had them done at tax aide. Yesterday my DW ask how they compared this year. I didn't know so I went into TT free and did the practice run. It came up with a refund of federal $ 1133. but what Tax aid refund was $527. I have looked and cant find where the difference in the numbers is. Should I just wait and see if the govt. finds a mistake and corrects it to my favor or just forget it and go on with my life. the+ - will not make or break us but it bugs me. I am not the sharpest pencil in the pack so, I know some of y'all are Tax aide volenteers is why I'm asking,Thanks!
