 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would give them 6 stars if it was possible. Josh and Pamela professionally handled each and every question I had, over and over! I had a lot of doubts about my SFOP procedure, due to the added complexity of it involving three countries, but the team at UniversalTaxProfessionals really made it. I am looking forward to working with you again next year, but this time I will be on time!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had to search extensively to find a reliable tax service, and I am incredibly glad I finally found Universal Tax Professionals.

What mainly differentiates them is their direct approach. Many other companies out there act merely as middlemen—they don't actually have accountants on their own team, yet they mark up their prices massively. With Universal, you get a dedicated professional as your direct point of contact. This makes a huge difference, as you can work closely with a real person and get any issues fixed quickly and efficiently.

Their prices are very fair for the level of personalized, expert service you receive. I am highly satisfied with the experience and will definitely be using their services going forward.

She was very helpful with filing my taxes while I'm overseas, as well as efficient, and friendly! She always replied to me within one to two days, even with our time difference, and I really appreciated that. I highly recommend UTP for reliable and helpful service.
