You need to be careful with the CPAs also because many of them, while very good business accountants or auditors don't have a clue when it comes to actual tax preparation
This is a very valid point. Just because someone is extremely proficient at crunching numbers and implementing generally accepted accounting procedures, lack of specific knowledge in regard to previous IRS policy, rulings, and areas of particular focus in regard to certain types of businesses can be a fatal handicap. Just as with computers, garbage in ... garbage out.
