What Do The Clients Say?

I never thought taxes could be this easy! I was worried about reporting my freelance income correctly, but the advisor took care of everything, even speaking to the Finanzamt on my behalf. It’s a huge relief knowing it’s done right, and I don’t have to stress about it anymore.

Bit pricey, but honestly worth it. My taxes were really complicated – income from two countries, investment income in Germany, etc. – and I couldn’t figure out any of it myself. The advisor not only filed my return but also helped me avoid double taxation. If you’re an expat with a complicated situation, this service really pays off!

I was skeptical at first because I thought I could manage with tax software, but I was so wrong. I had been missing out on deductions for my family, and my tax class was not optimized. They helped me make these changes, and my monthly pay increased a lot. Super thankful for the guidance, even if it took a little longer than I expected to get everything done.

Moving to Germany was challenging enough, and figuring out the tax system here was honestly overwhelming. I have a job in Germany, and a side gig in the US. I had no idea how to declare the income from the US in Germany and vice versa. A friend recommended me this tax service, I decided to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did.

The tax advisor was incredibly patient and took the time to under my situation. He walked me through everything, from how German taxes work and how to best report my income from the US without facing double taxation.

The tax advisor took care of all the communications with the Finanzamt. That was a big relief as I can’t speak German.

The tax consultant and the team were always available to answer my questions. The best part is they helped me deduct expenses that I won’t normally, which saved me a lot of money. Using the services was worth every euro, and I’ll definitely be using them again next year. Highly recommend for any expat dealing with the German tax system.
