Filing a DIY tax return with investments is intimidating at first, but it's really not hard once you've done it the first time. Assuming you're not doing any esoteric cost basis adjustments, it's just a matter of knowing where to copy the numbers from your consolidated 1099. Interest and dividends go right onto your 1040. Realized capital gains go on Schedule D. If you hold any foreign stock, claim your foreign tax credit on Schedule 3. Investments in IRAs, HSAs, and 401(k) accounts are, of course, not reported at all.

Depends, some states (hello, California!) tax your HSA gains.
