Setting up shop as self employed in the US

2 points

Moving to the US from Europe as software developer, with an ongoing contract with a customer abroad.

What kind of professional help should I look for? I've seen that I need a CPA (Accountant) and I'm reading up on tax resources in Freelancer's Union web site.

Should I try to use a web app such as TaxAct or should I make sure I speak with a human accountant, even if my set up, once ongoing, should be quite straightforward?
