<prompt> Human: Hi PF, Last year I worked full time and went to HR Block where they charged me 300 dollars for me to file my taxes with them. Now I am a full time medical student, but still worked for half of the last year, so my taxes are pretty simple. When I asked my parents about using a free tax service they said those might not get me a full refund like HR block would. I am wondering if it is necessary to pay the 300 dollars to ensure I will get a full refund, or if I can use a free tax service such as turbo tax. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!  <response>: Personally I think its crazy to pay anything if you are a student and your taxes are simple.Efile or paper file yourself for free. Look at copy of last years tax form for guidance, and just read the instructions for relevant lines.There is no magical tricks HRB can do that you dont have access to.
