Do you have complicated stuff for your tax returns? If you're like me, with just work and school, you should be able to do it yourself easily online for free at www.irs.gov/file . Theres a list of places you can choose. I personally used turbotax. It's very simple (as long as you dont have investment accounts, interest earnings, a house, etc)...

I have a tax attorney in Campbell, but he's expensive... but he'd saved my as$ many, many times.

PM me if you want his number.

If not, I have another one around Santa Clara, but he's not a tax atty.

Did mine 2 weeks ago!

Normally, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend my guy (he's a great guy and very good at what he does), but he's so busy, last I heard, he had to turn away new referrals.


Gerry, my guy is in Campbell, too, just past the Campbell Inn.

I did my taxes 3 weeks ago, but it won't help you guys in the SJ area. My tax person is in SF in the Sunset district.

Haha . . . wrong side of Bascom, big guy.

I know which burger place you are speaking of, but the name of it has slipped my memory.

Turbotax FTW. Fast, easy, and you'll get your refund within a week if you e-file with direct deposit. Been using it for a couple years now without any problems.

My family goes through this "professional" tax guy in Vallejo and last year, they all got audited because of bs tax claims.
