The turnaround time was too slow
The turnaround time was too slow. We needed to show proof that estimated taxes were paid. We actually downloaded a print off of the history from the IRS site. The first lady told us the IRS owed my son money due to his 401k, it was over 3000. They never gave him the refund. They tried to say it was for business. But that was a different year. They finally stated he did pay his estimated taxes and it was done correctly. They felt he was getting too much money. Then they acted like I reconcilled the books wrong. Lol The problem is that I had an actual attorney do that. They acted like they did not hear me say I had a CPA clean up the books. They are a joke and did not work to really help me. She said amend it, so the refund is lower. He just paid them, so they would leave him alone. They actually owe him money.

No Return and No Communication!
We have yet to receive our return and have had ZERO success with the company to get any information about our return- they have left us high and dry.

I think I got SCAMMED by ERC
They became unresponsive. i have sent numerous emails (24) and left numerous voice mails (9). statrted the process in June 22023 and they said it would be 5 months to receive a check, then it went to 6 months and then 7 months. Now no one answers the phone or returns emails or messages. I may have been scammed...

Easy to apply with Andrea's Help!
Andrea supported me as I collected the necessary data to file a claim. She was efficient and lovely to work with. She sent me reminder emails if something was missed and helped me resolve quickly. She even provided the steps for me to use in my payroll software system. Thanks Consumer Tax Advocates!

Andrea was a pleasure to work with
Andrea was a pleasure to work with. It was difficult from our end to get the paper work which was needed. She was always patient. Filing the paperwork was also difficult -I am thinking of signing the form. Your people on the phone were helpful.

Number one in her class
Cambria was tenacious enough to make this happen without becoming a nuisance. Moreover her understanding, expertise and ability to educate someone with no experience in this area of tax law makes her number one in my book.
