I am a CPA in Boston with over 15 years experience.
I have recently begun to focus on tax returns for Traveling Nurses since there are so many tax issues that need to be kept in mind.
If anyone would like to send me an inquiry regarding possibile services, please contact me at Taxes@DavidSBullockCPA.com.
My website, which will have information of interest to Traveling Nurses, will be up soon at http://www.DavidSBullockCPA.com/taxes/.
Whether I hear from you or not, good luck with your nursing careers and keep up the good work. I am very close to an RN, so I am well aware of what you go through on a day to day basis (let alone each April 15th!)

Watch out for the "tax free per diem" that some travel agencies offer in lieu of paid housing and travel expenses. I believe that you have to work a certain mileage radius from your permanent home in order to be able to use the tax free per diem.

It is nice to see a CPA who brings out the different needs a travel nurse has in regards to taxes.
