Why clients in Switzerland choose our US expat tax expertise
We will like to express our gratitude for TFX team's valuable help, timely response and professional conduct in preparing our US tax return. We will continue using their excellent services in the future. Anda & Eugene Badea, Switzerland.
I have been out of the country for 3 yrs and working for my US employer while living abroad. I got my divorce and remarried while in Switzerland. I needed to have my taxes done properly. They took that burden off of me after many hours of research. I couldn't be happier.
I used a tax local firm for several years here in Switzerland but was not completely happy with my experience there. I decided to make a change and I can say that my experience with Taxes for Expats has been very positive so far and I will be using their services again this year. I would recommend them to anyone. My tax preparer was very competent and helpful with any questions I had.
I've used Taxes for Expats for the past few years (I'm an American living in Switzerland). The interface is pretty straightforward and each tax preparer I've had has been helpful and responsive. It's been a low-stress experience each time and I plan on continue using them.
I was surprised in a very good way to see how pro and efficient they are. I live in Switzerland and for American expats it is not easy to try to find someone that can help us file US. Taxes for Expats managed to do it a record time. They just ask you to provide certain docs and they take care of the rest. I would highly recommend them :)
