Commercial tax preparers made errors, sometimes amounting to more than $1,000 in incorrect refunds and overpayments, in 100 percent of returns brought to them by a government agency seeking to test the accuracy of work done by large chain tax-preparation firms.

The study by the Government Accountability Office was small -- only 19 returns, which the GAO cautioned cannot be used to generalize to the entire commercial return-preparation industry -- but on only two returns did the preparer produce what the agency determined was the right amount. And even those two had mistakes, though they did not affect the final tax amount.
