    Definitely try to avoid the chains like H&R Block or Jackson Hewitt if you can cuz they really don't know Jack about the trucking industry. I Googled the tax does in your area and there is only a few that are not some type of chain so I would start with those.

    look for an accountant to do your taxes. do not use a tax preparer.

    I would suggest Lewis & Knopf on 23 & Hill. I don't know how much experience they have in trucking, but every time I've had need of a CPA they were awesome.

    And yes, they are a full CPA, which is what I would suggest also.

    P.S. Who are you currently using?

    Thank you for responses. Don't really want to say who I am using ( don't want to slam him ) but for some reason , I just don't have a comfortable feeling with him anymore.

    That is the same reason I fired my first CPA. They tried to tell me I owed over $6600 for just one quarter and would not advise me on extra write offs I had. My current CPA firm sat down with me for two hours for free just to talk to me about my business and write offs.
