Default Taxes

We are looking for a CPA to process our taxes which are pretty straight forward, no write-offs, etc.

Thank you

My two suggestion if "pretty straight forward" are TurboTax or one of the local H&R Block offices.
These days TT is more than adequate,

and,

I think you'll find the local Blocks filled with experienced/retired skilled preparers and in fact, one of them is a premium office usually with several Enrolled Agents doing taxes. My disclaimers: yes I used to prepare for Block in another part of the country, and NO, i do not know the local Block people, only the high level of training they've had (both through Block and in previous lives).

JMHO

Google The Villages Tax-Aide. Well-trained and helpful Villagers will do your taxes by appointment for free. From your post, it is highly unlikely you need a CPA.

I would be happy to meet with you and discuss your tax needs. I have a boutique CPA practice in The Villages where I come to your home, discuss your tax needs, and if you want to work together, I discuss strategic tax planning, complete your return and bring it back to you. I am a sponsor here on Talk of The Villages and you can find references if you google Bloom&Company or Bob Bloom CPA. Feel free to call me 7 days a week from 8 am to 8 pm. I am reliable, trustworthy, reasonably priced and very experienced. I had my own CPA practice for over 35 years in Seattle and I am a Villager now. I would be happy to speak with you. I also can assist with out of State and Country issues.

We have had Bob Bloom do our taxes since we moved down here, and he was prompt, accurate and knowledgeable. Enjoy working with him.

I would recommend Brenda Ford, CPA with Crippen and Co. They have an office in TV and Ocala.

I use Turbotax. Very easy. You really don't need a CPA.
