Fair taxes for people far from home
Our clients are students, seasonal workers, refugees and small business owners who often don't know the US system and don't speak its language. We think a tax company has a responsibility to make that easier, and not to profit from confusion.
Our commitments
Honest, upfront prices
You see the price before you pay. We charge fixed fees, not a percentage of your refund. If you pay from your refund, the handling fee is shown before you confirm.
Free tax education
Free calculators and plain-language guides for anyone, client or not. With universities and exchange agencies we run tax workshops for students and participants.
Help in your language
Support in Ukrainian, Russian and English, for people who are already dealing with a new country.
Supporting Ukrainians in the US
Families who came through Uniting for Ukraine or have TPS face a tax system that is new to them. We explain it in Ukrainian and help them claim the credits they are entitled to.
Keeping documents safe
As a Certified Acceptance Agent we verify passports so clients don't need to mail them abroad. That means less risk of losing an identity document and less paperwork.
Doing it right, not just fast
We file the correct form for your status, even when a wrong one would show a bigger refund today. Correct returns protect our clients' future visas and applications.
A paperless way of working
Tax work used to mean printed forms, envelopes and international courier packages. We do almost everything digitally.
E-filing instead of paper
As an IRS Authorized e-file Provider we file returns electronically wherever the IRS allows it, with no printing and no mailing.
Digital documents
Clients upload W-2s, passports and forms online. No paper copies travel between countries.
Fewer couriers
Certifying ITIN documents locally replaces international shipping of original passports.
Remote team
Our team works online, which avoids daily commuting and large offices.
