Taxfyle Avis 

I've used Niki B the past 3 years to file my taxes. Done within 48 hours and always accurate. Never had an issue with turnaround time or quality.

Terrible experience - they assign tax preparers who don't respond on time. simple messages takes weeks to respond and no clear ETA on completion. Stay away - to both save money and headache

Not even interested in spelling out how bad the experience was.

Customer support was largely non-responsive — I opened multiple tickets with no reply. The only time I saw any activity was when I disputed a $1,600 charge for Form 8938, which was billed on top of the $650 base filing fee. For context, this form required entering data for 21 foreign accounts from a document I provided — no research was needed on the CPA's part.
Reaching the relationship manager was equally difficult. Her calendar was consistently booked 10+ days out, making it impossible to resolve time-sensitive issues in a reasonable timeframe.
Communication from the CPA required constant follow-up from my end. I had to actively chase status updates rather than receive proactive progress. The overall experience felt like being stuck in limbo — unclear next steps, slow responses, and no easy path to resolution when issues arose.

Was directed to taxfyle through Empower my retirement fund management company. They did a great job filing my taxes. Getting me a refund when I thought I was going to have to write a big check to uncle Sam. Now I’m having them go back for previous years and look at refiling.
I liked the two person team approach for my taxes. One person being the accountant the other person being a customer service type person who could help walk me through the online systems they use

Will definitely use them going forward.

My taxes were never done (I hired Taxfyle 2 weeks before tax day). I was eventually refunded and told to find a different accountant. WASTE OF TIME AND NOW MY TAXES are late

I almost paid $8000 more than I had to because the tax professional I worked with missed two very obvious, very basic pieces of information from my property. I had to go back and basically review all of his work myself to make sure no other mistakes were made. Then, after all was said and done, I asked for a refund (I didn't pay them for me to have to do my own taxes) and they ignored me for more than a week. Bad preparation but even worse customer service.

My financial advisor offered complimentary tax services through TaxFyle, and we stupidly decided to use them. I thought I did my due diligence prior to starting, but here's how it went.

We were asked to have all material submitted by Feb 15. Aside from 2 outstanding 1099s we did that. It's now April 14, and we have yet to receive a return draft after being strung along for weeks with "I'll have it done soon."

Our assigned CPA, Gregory Sechler seems to be the only person available to work on our return. We were told he had a health emergency April 12, at which point you'd think some other people would be brought in to ensure his caseload was managed. Nope. You'd also think they'd have planned for hiccups and gotten returns done early just in case.

Communication is challenging as it all goes through an app, so I have no one to call or way to get this resolved. My texts in the app go unanswered now.

I've filed for an extension on my own, but will have to suffer the penalties from late payments. Not to mention the massive stress that goes along with all of this.
I'll be returning to my former CPA, and happily pay his high fees!

**Update: I reached out to TaxFyle after they commented on my review and never heard back from them.

Taxfyle's Pro omitted a critical federal form from my paid return. After four contact attempts over three weeks and full detailed information provided, the job was closed silently with no explanation. Now my return is not just permanently open to IRS audit; any gain on my investments triggers the most punitive tax regime in the federal code, plus compounding daily interest. The omission is material.

I engaged Taxfyle for full-service tax return preparation, specifically because I wanted a licensed professional to identify and file all required forms. The assigned Pro had full knowledge of my foreign investment activity from our discussions. He filed my 2024 return without Form 8621, a mandatory federal information return for PFIC reporting, and never investigated the subject. I discovered this almost a year later on my own.

When I raised the issue in March 2026 as soon as I discovered, Partner Support reopened the job on March 13 and engaged the Pro. The Pro's response was to ask about rental property entities, which I don't have and are unrelated to Form 8621. I corrected him and provided comprehensive, organized entity information the same day. No further response came from either the Pro or support.

I followed up with support on March 16 and 17. The amendment job received no response at any point. The only reply I received from Taxfyle during the entire period addressed a separate question about this year's filing and said nothing about the outstanding amendment. I waited in good faith, given the workload of the period. On April 5, I received an automated notification: "Your Job Has Been Closed." No resolution. No amendment filed. No context. No communication with me. No consent from me. My follow-up on April 6 in a final effort to rectify has received no reply.

The consequence is explicit. Under IRS rules, a missing PFIC form suspends the statute of limitations indefinitely. The entire return stays open to audit, not just the PFIC items, until Taxfyle completes their mandate and files the amendment. Also under IRS rules, without this filing any future gain on the investments triggers the most punitive tax regime in the federal code: taxed at the highest ordinary income rate (37% versus my current 10-12%), plus compounding daily interest charges. Identifying which forms a client's situation requires is the core obligation of a full-service engagement. That obligation was not met.

Taxfyle guarantees the accuracy of all forms and deliverables. A required and consequential federal form was missed. When I raised it, the job was closed without resolution - without context even. Prospective clients should know this is the experience that the Taxfyle guarantee and their Pros can produce.

The quality of service i am getting is just terrible. I told the customer support that my CPA is not doing her job, not answering my questions, mostly ignoring me and delaying the job. CS just told me they cannot do anything and i am stuck with this CPA. Whole experience is just frustrating and terrible.

Taxfyle filed two years of my taxes while they partnered with Bench Accounting. I was just notified in December 2025 that for the first year of taxes they filed for me in 2021 they did not file a very important form (568) with the state of California and as it was many years ago, I'm now faced with refiling fees as well as hundred of dollars in fines from the state of CA.

I first tried to resolve this directly with Taxfyle but they refused to help. I opened a case on BBB and they still refuse to help me even though my issue is the direct result of their tax pro's error. They even went as so far to blame me for not asking enough questions or seeing that the form was missing when they filed my taxes. If I knew everything that was supposed to go in a tax return why would I be using a professional service?!

Avoid this company at all costs as they do not stand by the work of their accountants and do not support their customers. They wouldn't even refile my return for me even though they were the ones to mess it up! Hard pass, I wouldn't wish their services upon my worst enemy.

Not to mention their support is all AI on their site and hard to get ahold of anyone. Awful company.

I have been using Taxfyle since 2017. Always have a quick and easy experience with my pro. I also benefit from having all my tax documentation readily available in one place.

The accountant I got matched to was very knowledgable and she was able to handle a more complicated situation with my return. Uploading the documents was super easy.

I called in not knowing what to expect. The rep guided me through the initial process and walked me through all the next steps in a short amount of time. The pro and support team were quick to respond whenever I had any questions throughout.

Will definitely be using them again going forward.

Have been using Taxfyle now since 2020.

Reliable and convenient.

Service team is great whenever adjustments need to be made on job. Have found that the platform keeps improving every year.

I had a frustrating experience using Taxfyle and would not recommend them based on how my case was handled.

I uploaded all my documents and paid 50% upfront based on their estimate. After a tax professional accepted my job, communication and progress were extremely slow, and I had to repeatedly follow up just to get updates.

I was told a draft would be provided, but instead received follow-up questions that I had already answered earlier. Due to the delays and lack of preparedness, I decided to cancel the service.

After I cancelled, I was later informed that a draft had been uploaded and was then told I would be charged 100% of the service fee.

Overall, the experience felt disorganized, delayed, and unfair in how billing was handled. I do not recommend using this service, but if you do document everything carefully if you choose to use this service.

Easy to use, good price for my return

Do not use this company. The service is awful. After uploading all documents and providing the requested information, I couldn't get the required consultation appointment scheduled since it was never made available to do so.

Never use this company. I had to correct the return they created 3 different times because I kept finding incorrect inputs. Additionally, I needed to file 2 amended returns because the one they created was also incorrect and caused a large tax bill. Terrible service that created far more headaches that I ended up having to correct.

It takes all my stress out of tax filling. I had a great experience with taxfyle. Love it
