EZPerDiem.com Offers Pilots and Flight Attendants Discount on Tax Filing Services

For flight crew members including pilots and flight attendants, filing taxes may be a little easier and less expensive this year thanks to online tax service EZPerDiem.com. The online tax service specifically tailored to the needs of airline flight crews is offering a 10% discount on tax services which help the pilots and flight attendants calculate the tax refund amount from their per diem and other tax deductions.

For individuals in the transportation industry, the difference in the amount which pilots and flight attendants are paid as a per-diem and what the federal government allows can be literally thousands of dollars each year – which can equate to a lot of extra money in the form of a tax refund.

For example, an airline crew member from the U.S. who overnights in Toronto would be allowed by the federal government to receive as much as $130 per day for meals and expenses (known as ME & I expenses). If that crew member is paid by their company $1.80 per hour for their per diem, that equates to only $43.20 for the day. The difference of $86.80 is a tax-write off for the crew member.

Multiply an amount like this over the course of hundreds of overnights each year, and it quickly adds up to a very large tax-deduction and possible a very substantial increase in total tax refund.

The Per Diem is just one of many often overlooked tax deductions which are unique to flight crews, pilots, flight attendants, and others in the transportation industry. EZPerDiem.com has a set of online tools tailored to these needs to identify, document and substantiate crew expenses to maximize tax refunds.

Regardless of your airline, EZPerDiem.com reportedly lists hundreds of airlines for which they can quickly import pilot and flight attendant schedules from the previous tax year to help quickly calculate their per diem tax return amounts.

To receive a 10% discount at EZPerDiem.com, you must use this discount code “SAVE10” when you place your order. Their basic service is only $34.95 and includes all the information you need to calculate you per diem and other tax deductions, plus instructions to enter this information on your tax forms or into a tax program like Turbotax. For just a little more $59.95, the company will have a tax professional prepare a completed IRS Form 2106 for you.

Either way, the money spent should result in hundreds or thousands back in your pocket in the form of tax savings or tax refund. The company also boasts a 100% no risk guarantee which states, “If you do not benefit from this site, we will give you 100% of your money back.”
