Stan's Tax Prep for Graphic Designers

This is how I prepare my taxes for the past 20+years.
I have an amazing CPA, Gale Williams from Marietta, GA.
She's amazing. Used to work for IRS and currently works for a government job that also is responsible for taxes. She is one of the few CPA's that works with artist. She understands what we do and is fair with her evaluations of what we can write off and claim on our yearly taxes. She believes in NOT putting down anything that might send up a red flag to the IRS. She is honest, fair and artist friendly and worth every penny I've paid her over the years to assist me in my taxes.

If you want to use her in the future I'll gladly give you her information.

I'm enclosing everything I did from last year regarding my taxes.
You have to understand that my situation is different from yours but I can give you some pointers on what you can write off and how it applies to our career. Once you start workig fulltime for someone, own a home and such this will really come into fruition for you. Write everything off if you can. That's being a true American!
