I do my own on paper, as a self proprietor that means schedule C & all the other related forms like SE & sch1 & 2 for other forms of income like interest or rental income. Dont need to be a CPA or pay an online service, its pretty simple really... although my Father did get me started the first time with a great schedule C worksheet he made up that has you put in all the info first then just transfer the numbers to the forms. The hardest part is keeping or going back through the year to get all the info, but after a couple times thats pretty simple.
When I was younger in my 20s & 30s with 1 job, doing the 1040 form was super simple with no help, did my first 1040 when I was 16, I watch all my friends struggle and just pay a tax service to do theirs.
