Deductions & credits

Before the tax laws changed for 2018 and beyond, tax preparation fees could be used as miscellaneous deductions subject to the 2% of AGI threshold.  That law changed.   You cannot deduct fees for preparing your personal income tax return.    Independent contractors and business owners can still deduct tax prep fees on their Schedule C as a business expense.
