Just Filed My 100th Return

So it took me 41 days to hit my 100th individual return.  I have many partially completed, with additional information needed.  Compared to last year, taking into account the extra day in February, I am about where I was last year at this time.  So I need to pick it up to make up for the three less days this year at the end.

I realize that if I was Jim, 100 would be a really bad week.  But for the rest of us non-superhero preparers, is 100 done returns good at this point?  I know, a lot depends on the complexity of the returns prepared.  Is anyone way ahead or way behind of their last years pace at this point?

Non-superhero preparer here...I'm running close to last years numbers.  I'm really surprised  because I'm struggling with "I wish I was retired" attitude this year.

I wonder if Jim wears a cape while he is preparing taxes.....lol

100 returns?  It’s kind of like converting dog years to human years so I think that means you have completed 700 when making the conversion to Jim returns.  So good job.  

I just looked this afternoon and saw that I was slightly ahead of returns out the door compared to last year.  Which means I am just keeping my head above water since I have about the same number of returns ahead of schedule in the door compared to last year at this time.

I never have much idea.  Seems like the same even with the ones I let go.  100 was along time ago though.  Maybe 41 days.  Took a break for grandsons b-day this weekend and getting behind again.

returns require more time to properly complete. most of us do not have too many easy returns.

Have to be cautious e-filing returns with software that is a work-in-progress.
