"Every year I used to sit in front of the computer with Turbo Tax and have an emotional breakdown. I felt like The Man was bringing me down big time.  Enter Pacific NW Tax Service. This place, and specifically SanDee,  was recommended to us three years ago and we have been loyal ever since.  She knows her stuff and actually teaches tax ethics and other tax classes. When they are done taking a look at your receipts and everything, you get a nice little folder with all of your stuff to mail off and keep in your file cabinet.  I will never like tax season, but having someone else do it makes it a little less painful.  Hint: It is best to make an appointment, but I think they do take walk ins too."
