[Nfbc-info] Need Some Recommendations

Mon Oct 16 04:17:27 UTC 2017

Do you need an accountant for 2017 taxes or for 2018 taxes? To clarify, do you reside in Northern California Central or southern California?

As a whole, I am extremely impressed with my tax consultant. My taxes were very complicated this year and will probably be just as complicated next year he is worth every penny that I pay him and I pay him quite a few pennies…

I have a friend who lives in Northern California who files the long form for taxes and is very pleased with the tax consultant. Feel free to contact me off-line if you would like contact information for my friends tax consultant

Lastly, my tax consultant is having me create spreadsheets. There are certain things that he wants me to keep track up to make my job easier and his job easier for next year. This is fine except I’m also losing learning some new programs on my new laptop with updated computer programs you know how that goes

From,
Lisa Irving

Since this will be my first job working for a school district through an independent privately owned company that doesn't provide benefits and such, I will have to find a reputable tax accountant that works with blind people to help file yearly taxes. I know that on the TurboTax site it states thatthere are certain rules blind people must follow and reading all of it overwhelms me because I don't quite understand and would rather talk to a tax accountant that specializes in helping file taxes working with blind people. Seeing as is my new job will be starting November 3rd and it will be my first job, I want to do the taxes and such, right. If anyone has any recommendations for tax accountants in the bay area, that would be nice.
