We had a full house at our recent session on understanding the U.S. tax system. Chris Canellos, CPA and Stanford Continuing Studies lecturer, gave a clear, practical walk-through of the fundamentals, including how taxable income works, what deductions and credits really mean, and how taxes are calculated under current laws.

Participants appreciated his guidance on when to seek professional help, what steps to take if audited, and how homeownership can offer tax advantages. His tax-saving tips made a complex topic feel more manageable and actionable.

A big thank you to Stanford Federal Credit Union for co-sponsoring this highly informative and educational event.
