Checked October 21, 2026. Starting-at prices are floors, so a real competitor total is often higher than the figure in the cell.
H&R Block’s tax-office page says assisted filing starts at $99. An FAQ on another H&R Block page says in-person filing starts at $89. This table uses $99.
TaxAct’s individual state fee is labeled extra and the amount is not published, so a $99 comparison can be a floor. TurboTax lists Schedule E with no added fee, so a rental comparison against TurboTax is a floor.
Liberty Tax’s $69 price covers a Form 1040 with no schedules. Other Liberty prices are not published. State pricing for H&R Block starts at $75.
Jackson Hewitt in-office prices are set by each franchise and are not published, so Jackson Hewitt is not a column.

This table is only firms that prepare the return for you. Software the client finishes alone is not a column.
