Default recommended CPA?

I'm looking for a knowledgeable cpa to file my taxes this year.

Past couple of years i've used this guy my parents use but i honestly don't think he's up to date on the latest tax laws/deductions etc.

looking for someone in the south bay but willing to consider someone in the santa clara area.

Depends on if you're filing as a business owner or individual. I know a guys who's pretty sharp but he mostly deals with business owners. Let me know and I'll pm you his contact.

Unless you are married, have a mortgage, have large medical related bills, or own a business... there aren't going to be much that you can deduct from an individual tax return. Just do your own tax return and save some money!
