The thing is I feel sort of helpless without a CPA. I recently (beginning of this year) bought Quickbooks and I have been keeping track of all the books myself. Logging all transactions, income, expenses, keeping receipts etc. So I feel like this is good step in becoming independent. I paid in a bunch of my debt (about 20k) and filed for a 6 month extension. I'd rather not pay this guy any more money to prepare my return. Do you know any online resources that might help me get this sorted out?
