WHAT IS THE EASIEST WAY TO FILE TAXES?

At Liberty Tax, we believe tax filing should not feel like a guessing game. We are here to make the process smooth, clear, and customized to your needs—whether you are filing for the first time or navigating a more complex return. Between W-2s, 1099s, dependents, deductions, and tax credits, it is no surprise that one of the most common questions we hear is: “What is the easiest way to file my taxes?” The answer is simple. The easiest way is the method that gets your return right the first time, helps you keep more of your money, and gives you confidence from start to finish. 

Option One

If your tax situation is very simple, you may be tempted to use a DIY tax app or online software. These platforms are designed for basic returns and offer convenience, especially if you are comfortable using online forms and have only one source of income. 

Here is what DIY software offers: 

• Fast, online convenience for straightforward tax situations 
• Budget-friendly options, including free versions for basic returns
• Minimal wait times since you control the pace 

But here is the catch: 

DIY software cannot always spot errors or flag tax-saving opportunities. If you answer a question incorrectly or leave something out, the software will not always know to fix it. And if your return is selected for review, you may be on your own. 

It is a decent option if you have no dependents, no investments, no major deductions, and a single W-2 job. But if your financial picture is more layered, you may want more support. 

Option Two: Filing with a Tax Professional at Liberty Tax 

This is where the process truly becomes easier, faster, and more reliable—especially if your taxes are anything but basic. 

Working with a local Liberty Tax expert means you are not just getting a tax preparer. You are getting a guide who understands your unique financial story and helps you file with clarity and confidence. 

Our tax professionals are here to help when: 

• You have children or other dependents
• You bought or sold a home this year
• You are self-employed, freelance, or run a side business
• You received unemployment or gig income
• You want to maximize your refund and avoid costly mistakes
• Multi-state returns
• Retirement income  

Here is what you get with Liberty Tax: 

• One-on-one support from a real person, not a chatbot
• Expert review to ensure your return is accurate and complete
• Guidance on tax credits and deductions you may qualify for
• Help with IRS notices or questions if they arise later 

We also know that convenience matters. That is why you can upload your documents securely online through our digital system* or visit one of our local offices in person—whichever works best for you.
