Bob Lind has been my tax guy (an Enrolled Agent) since 1994 when I bought my house, thus knowing I wouldn't be the best at doing my own taxes.
Knowing location matters, he's on the west side of Phoenix. It's a drive for me, but I have the satisfaction knowing it will be done right.
Bob has always known each and every legal way to find the most you can get . (My wording, not his.) His fees are based on the actual tax forms.
Come prepared... Do Not hand him a box or paperbag to sort. If you talk about Aunt Sally and her crocheting hobby or anything that goes blah blah blah... he will not be interested. If you make up numbers out of your head, he's not for you. I go to him because he's the best.
