Does anyone have a CPA or tax specialist in the area that they would recommend?

Thanks,
PLEASE for your sake, make an appointment with a knowledgeable CPA either here or in your home state. A $200 consult is so much cheaper than paying thousands in income taxes (federal & state) that you could have avoided with proper advice. Advice from friends, relatives, co-workers, neighbors, etc is worth exactly what you pay for it.

If you are here (TV), I highly recommend Judith Dacey at J.D. Sumter & Associates in Baylee Plaza on 27/441, 1 mile north of Walmart. You can google her for her phone number. She's very, very sharp.
