Trust and Peace of Mind

Taxes for Expats has done my taxes for the past three years, and this year's experience was typical of all three years: awesome. Taxes for Expats originally cleaned up a mess I had made of my taxes and has provided their same friendly but very professional service in the subsequent years. It comes down to trust and peace of mind. Based on my experiences with TfE, I now trust them completely with all of my tax work. At tax time, I simply provide the necessary information, and I have the peace of mind of knowing my tax return will be completed professionally, correctly, and expeditiously. Can't beat that.

They turn free consultations into a sales call without answering any questions unless you pay $250

I wanted to ask some questions/tax advice in case I might need such services in the near future. I got in touch clearly stating my intentions and asking if they do free consultations to advise on my situation, and was told to fill out a form on their site to schedule a call. Great! Conveniently there was a field to write information so they can prepare for my call.

Well, during the actual call which I thought would be my consultation, I was just talked AT (not even WITH) given a whole spiel about "we can do this and this and this for you" and not answering anything that I wrote in the information field on the form. When I finally got a chance to talk after being talked AT for several minutes without pause, I was told "oh yeah you can schedule another call to answer those questions, it's $250 for 30 minutes".

No thanks. I get needing to make money but at least be up front and honest about what a call entails instead of just pushing sales tactics at me, especially when since the very beginning I was clear I wanted advice and not a sales pitch. Other tax advisors and even a lawyer I spoke to in the past were happy to answer questions for free (even when I offered to pay for their time!), and those who didn't made it super clear from the start instead of wasting my and their time.

When I WILL need these tax services in the future, which I know I will, I will give my money to someone else.

Hi Petra, thank you for sharing your feedback. I tried contacting you yesterday to better understand your experience but wasn’t able to reach you at an appropriate time. I’d really appreciate the chance to speak with you, as my goal is to understand what didn’t feel right for you and make sure we address any concerns you still have.

I’ve listened to your call with our consultant, Dev, and from what I heard, the conversation was friendly and followed the information you provided in your booking form. The suggestion for a Tax Planning Call was offered as the next step if you wanted personalised tax advice — but it’s entirely optional.

That said, I respect that the call didn’t meet your expectations, and I’d genuinely like to learn more about what felt off from your perspective so we can improve and also help resolve your original questions.

If you’d prefer to continue over email, please feel free to reach out to me at success@tfx.tax. I’m also happy to try calling again at a time that works for you.

Thank you again — I hope we can connect soon and make this right for you.

Kind regards, Deborah | Head of Customer Success

--------------------------------------------------------

Hi Petra, I have been trying to reach you, but have been unsuccessful at every attempt. I am still really keen to assist you with what you need. As confirmed, we provided the information you requested during the initial call and would be happy to assist with any other tax planning questions you have.

Please let me know a suitable time to reach out by phone.

Kind regards, Deborah

They made stressful situation less fraught

The team was knowledgable, friendly and quick getting everything complete. They were able to give us clear advice about our retirment plans and how that would be handled when we renounced our citizenship. It made a stressful situation less fraught.

Expert services and piece of mind!

This is my second year using Taxes for Expats. I used their streamlined procedure last year and returned this year to file my 2024 tax return. This year and last year, my tax advisors have been incredibly knowledgeable, swift in handling paperwork and my concerns, as well as being courteous.
Their system is easy to use and very detailed, giving specific information for the country I live in. It saved my information from last year so that this year, filling out the form was even easier. I feel so relieved that my tax returns have been filed by experts, on time and electronically. I would highly recommend their services.

I've been using TFX for the last 3 years and they helped me work through some complex issues as a dual US/UK citizen working in a third country. Every CPA who's been assigned to me has been knowledgeable and helpful and have been able to explain my situation and options in a way thats easy to understand. This includes my most recent experience asking for advice on a situation where I'm working in 3 different countries across 5 tax years in a 4 month period and our 30min call established a clear plan of action and identified a couple of areas for deductions that I wasn't previously aware of.

Thanks for your partnership over these last three years. Your experience—getting clear guidance through multi-country complexities—is precisely the goal of our US tax preparation and advisory services.

Some initial confusion but in the end a great job!

This was my first experience with TFX. They have a different interpretation on some IRS expat forms than my previous tax preparer. Once we got that sorted out and my EA was assigned, he prepared my return in a very timey manner and was helpful in answering my questions. I thought this would be a "once & done" experience since I had already paid deposits but I fully intend to use TFX again!

Thanks for sticking with us through the initial bumps. We know that switching preparers can come with a learning curve, and we appreciate you taking the time to get things sorted with us.

It's good to hear everything came together smoothly once you, Claudia, connected with your EA and that you're planning to come back. We'll make sure next year is even more straightforward.
