Tax season is here.
I do not know what I am doing.
What are my options ?
All of the allegedly " free " online tax services are charging $40 to $80 . All of these in-person businesses seem to be charging $100 per page. I should have just set up a 401K if I was going to be dealing with such headaches.

While my invested retirement fund itself is not taxed directly , I am required by law , to transfer a designated portion out of that account annually and the portion transfered out is taxable .

I looked into the free AARP tax service , at my local library , a while back . Yes they are free , and you did not have to be a member of AARP . Unfortunately , at that time , they would only help with the simple taxes forms . If you had need of help with the more complicated taxes , you were out of luck .
Think of the payment for using a tax service as a kind of investment . They will find exemptions you might have missed , which in the end will save you money .
@Cast1es A few years ago AARP did my return involving records of mutual fund capital gain transactions from 30 years prior.
I don't buy/sell stocks directly, so others' returns could well be more complicated.
ymmv.
