Late taxes, quarterly taxes, early taxes… There’s always taxes, but yes a lot of the h&r block types only do tax prep for a few months and another job the rest of the year

Technically taxes are due quarterly in the US, so they have plenty to do if they have business or self employed customers. My dad was a tax preparer and would file tons of extensions in April and finish them up until August. Then start on the next year.

Some tax preparers are semi-retired folks who work just part of the year by choice.

Plot.

Lobby for making taxes more complicated /s

In the Midwest, some farm.
