Hi Mr eamonn,

"Simple, straightforward, and efficient" — that's what we love to hear.

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Highly recommended service for expats

I had never filed my taxes before because I'm an American who has lived in Ecuador my whole life. I found "Taxes for Expats" online, looked for more information, and decided to use the Streamline Procedure. The whole process was easy, the communication was excellent, and they finished their work in less than 45 days. I will now continue to use them for my tax returns. Highly recommended for all expats.

Hi Jonathan,

Thank you for sharing your experience and for trusting us with such an important first step.

Filing taxes for the first time, especially as an American living abroad your whole life, can feel like a daunting unknown. We're so glad you found us, took the time to research, and decided to move forward with the Streamline Procedure. Hearing that the process felt easy, communication was excellent, and we delivered in under 45 days — that's exactly the kind of quiet confidence we aim to provide.

We're honored to be your tax partner going forward, and we truly appreciate you recommending us to the expat community.

(And thank you as well for sharing your thoughts in Spanish — we serve expats across many countries and languages, and your words will resonate with so many others in similar situations.)

Hi Kim,

Prompt service on a complex return is no small feat — so this feedback really means a lot to us.

We know that complexity can sometimes slow things down, but our team works hard to balance thoroughness with efficiency, especially when the stakes are high. It's wonderful to hear that your tax professional kept communication clear throughout and that you felt supported from start to finish.

Thank you for the high recommendation — we're honored to have earned it.

Fast, Efficient, and Professional Service

Consistently for the past 6 tax returns, both in the U.S. and International, the representatives with Taxes for Expats (TFX) that have prepared our tax returns, have been very responsive, knowledgeable and respectful.
TFX software application changed as far as the look of the end product of the 2025 tax return. The first part was a worksheet and scrolling down further the 1040 could be viewed. I was not prepared for the new look. It took some time to understand the worksheet and to find the 1040. Once I familiarized myself with it, I am very happy with the change. The worksheet makes reviewing so much easier. We will definitely be back with TFX next year!

Six years of trust across both U.S. and international filings is something we truly value — thank you for sticking with us.

We also really appreciate the thoughtful feedback on the updated return presentation. Change can definitely take a moment to adjust to, especially when you’re familiar with a long-standing format, so it’s great to hear that once you explored it a bit more, the worksheet layout ended up making the review process easier for you. Feedback like this genuinely helps us improve the client experience.

We’ll look forward to helping again next tax season.

Efficient and professional

Efficient and professional, no flimsy typos and very detailed worksheets. Just takes some getting used to with everything being online, yet you are having a person prepare your taxes, invisibly sort of.

Hi Madlen,

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback. We’re glad you found the process detailed, professional, and well organized.

We completely understand that the fully online experience can feel a little different at first — especially when there’s a real person carefully preparing everything behind the scenes rather than sitting across a desk from you. Our team works hard to combine the convenience of technology with genuine human support and expertise.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us.

Another year done and dusted

Another year done and dusted. They are very efficient or I’m getting more organised. Okay, it is a little bit of both. Easy to work with and depending on your situation excellent results. Third year running now plus many years of back filing done. Gets five stars from me.

Taxes for Expats took a whole lot of stress off my shoulders

I was very happy with the services provided by Taxes for Expats. When I tried to get caught up with my US taxes, I found it overwhelming. I was delighted to find Taxes for Expats and found them very easy to work with, professional, knowledgeable and quick to respond. I felt I was working with humans rather than robots! Ginto was very helpful and processes all my documents very efficiently and accurately.

TFX rules the roost

TFX rules the roost. For the last 10+ years Ms. Zemelman and her stalwart staff of customer representatives and tax specialists have helped keep me in the good graces of the IRS while filing taxes from abroad. My interaction with TFX has been unalloyed pleasure, knowing that I am safe in the hands of the best folks in the business. Very nice guys and gals, BTW--I even enjoy our email communication. I feel like part of the family after all this time. Give your business to TFX!

More than 10 years of working together and feeling like part of the family truly means something to us. We’re so glad the experience has been not only reliable, but genuinely enjoyable along the way (email conversation included!).

Keeping you in the good graces of the IRS is serious business and doing it with a bit of ease and familiarity makes it all the better.

A Satisfied first time customer, an expat American in Japan.

This is the second time I've written a review for TFX. I don't remember the words of my previous review, but I'll try to repeat the feelings. I was impressed with the professionalism of the staff workers, especially the person assigned to me. Lynn Young was patient, knowledgeable, and fast to respond to my frequent calls for help. She seemed to understand my issues and concerns immediately. Thank you to all the people at TFX. I'll be back next year!

Came to Precision Tax Relief owing more than I ever thought I'd owe the IRS and honestly didn't sleep well for months before reaching out. Naomi walked me through everything clearly and never made me feel judged for how I got into the situation. They negotiated a settlement that was way less than what I originally owed and set up a payment plan I can actually manage. Wish I hadn't waited so long to call them.
