Fee Structure of
Income Tax Returns
for Pilots and Flight Attendants
Our fee structure is based on a standard return consisting of a Federal Form 1040 (long form), with the associated schedules and forms: Schedule A - itemized deductions, Schedule B - Interest Income, Employee Business Expenses - Form 2106, and various other basic forms. The fee for a standard return is $99.00. If you are filing a joint return, there is an additional fee of $10.00. The first state return is an additional $20.00.
For example: a return for a single tax payer living in California would be $119.00. A joint tax return in one state would be $129.00. These fees include electronic filing and direct deposit of refunds for both the federal and state returns.
Over 70 percent of our clients have basic returns that are filed for the $99.00 Federal fee. We can keep our basic fee low by charging only for those forms that require additional computations and that apply to only a few of our clients. The fees for these additional forms are listed below. These amounts are for the "basic" return; if you have a more complex situation, i.e. three rental properties, additional fees may apply.
If you wish for FLIGHTAX to prepare just the Professional Deduction portion of your return, our fee for this service is $59.00. We will also calculate your Per Diem deduction (this is included in the Professional Deductions) for $49.00. For more detailed information see the "Our Services" portion of this web page.
A Processing fee of $20.00 for all returns postmarked after March 25th is applied to the total fee. This additional fee is intended as a motivation for you to get your information to us early. The sooner you get your information into us - the sooner you will receive your refund!
