About
Bob Does Taxes right for less. Bob Does Taxes for $99 for basic 1040 + 1 state return. Rates are usually about 40% less than store front tax services. I work from a home office so I can pass the savings on to you..
I am also a small practice that means every client receives my personal attention.
My mission is to save you money by seeking out every legal tax break available to you. I enjoy helping people keep what they have work so hard to earn..
I have a business degree from Liberty U, and have been working with taxes for over 30 years. I've been in a private tax practice since 2011.

Dan helped us understand why we had to pay the taxes we owed and even did a comparison analysis for single vs joint making things very clear.

Bob patiently hung in there while I tried to make myself and information I needed available. Once I was able to make and keep an appointment, he cleared up my tax situation and lifted a heavy burden off of my mind. I will and have already recommended Bob Does Taxes to friends and family. Thank you again Bob… see you next tax season!

We had a very complicated tax situation and needed some help. Bob took the time to explain all the different scenarios for us and guided not only my husband and myself, but my 2 daughters. He is very informative and quite helpful. Would recommend him highly! I used to complete my own taxes, but never again. From now on Bob will be doing our taxes! Thanks Bob!

So far so good! I am still sending in paperwork through Bob's portal, so my taxes are not done.
Bob has been excellent with reminders and letting me know where he is in the preparation and what he needs.

As soon as I spoke to Bob on the phone I could tell he was a legitimate tax professional. He completed our returns on the spot, provided some very sound advice, and at a very reasonable price. I am very pleased with his services! AP Wilmington, DE
