We had a great experience using Taxtake. This year was our first year needing a tax preparer experienced with international tax. We reached out to Taxtake and were connected with Mr. Hristo, who provided a ton of information about our unique tax situation in his response to our initial inquiry - before we had even signed an engagement letter. We decided to move forward with Mr. Hristo and Taxtake based on their clear expertise and extremely reasonable fees. The process was very smooth, and our returns were
I had looked quite some time to find someone who can help with our taxes. Since we had income in two counties, HR Block and Turbo tax did not want to prepare our taxes. However, Hristo at Taxtake did an absolute fantastic job for us. He always knew what was needed and how to navigate our foreign income, Real Estate income, etc. I will definitely use Taxtake again next year and can recommend it to everyone!
Been using Taxtake for the last 3 years since working in the US. Hristo has always been very responsive, helpful and prompt with doing my tax returns and answering any questions I have. I appreciate how straightforward and simple he makes everything, despite my somewhat more complicated tax situation. Thanks again Hristo!
Came across Taxtake through an online search engine. Although I was skeptical at first as I had not dealt with them before Chris Geoffrey (CPA) was extremely professional from the first communication onward. As a non-US owner of a business, he understood that patience was required in explaining the navigation of the US Tax requirements and thus took the time to explain the process in detail to me, answering more than he was required too. Its all about the finer details and the little extras that stood out s

I've been using TaxTake since I moved to the U.S. nearly 6 years ago and Hristo is always a pleasure to work with. Ever efficient and knowledgeable. I often hear other expats talking about how difficult it is to find someone well versed in international tax laws and I'm so grateful for the peace of mind TaxTake gives me.
Hristo Ivanov has been helping me file my taxes for the past two years now. He is super diligent, detail oriented, and knows all the tax rules. Great CPA all around at a fair price! Highly recommend!
I have worked with TaxTake for the last five years and truthfully will never trust another company with my taxes as an American expat. TaxTake has always communicated excellently with me, as well as educated me on all of the matters I need to be concerned with filing my taxes each year. TaxTake's service is speedy, thorough, and personal, which is highly appreciated. I will never forget receiving an actual phone call from them when we first started working together, which clearly demonstrated their professi
Hristo has been excellent. So efficient, clear and helpful with all my filing needs for the past 5 years. He has assisted me through some complicated filing situations and allowed me to have a clear understandig of my taxes and the filing process. I am recommending him to everyone I know!
Our organization had our accounting done by TaxTake for 3 years now and we're very happy with the service. They even caught some mistakes in our bookkeeping and helped us fix them. We use them for personal accounting too. Highly recommended.

Knowledgeable, Professional, Responsive service. Helped me recover incorrectly withheld tax from US IRS.
I have been working with TaxTake (Hristo) since 2020. All tax deadlines with the IRS were ok. Additionally, they provided extra advice on personal income tax consultation. All done in a smooth way.
Hristo is a true professional and offers fast, high-quality services!
I would definitely recommend Taxtake, I have been using their services for almost 10 years, easy and efficient process every time.
Taxtake has been a pleasure to deal with. Super knowledgable - from personal to corporate matters - we have used them for years and plan to continue for many more.
I have used the service for the past four years and have had only positive experiences. I would like to give special thanks to my account manager, Chris Geoffrey, CPA, for all his assistance and guidance.
Hristo is the best! Has been doing my taxes since 2017. Super responsive. Must have during tax season. Thanks Hristo
Taxtake were very efficient and helpful in helping me, as a foreign individual, refund certain taxes from IRS.
Hristo have been doing my taxes for years and I am very pleased with his work. Great experience, highly recommended.
I?ll admit I was also partially in the wrong, but not responding to a client for almost 3 weeks seems strange. Dude took three years to respond to this, absolutely fitting. There are other things that I could mention here, but will not. How willing such CPAs would be to push false narratives if there were a possibility of coming after them for malpractice/intimidation methods?
Very high level of professionals who helped me return taxes from IRS! Recommended A+++
Been using Taxtake for a few years now and very happy with the quality and speed my taxes are done! Highly recommended!
Very professional service! I?m so happy and I?ll continue using TaxTake for future years
Been working with them for years but all of sudden they stopped answering a week before the filing deadline and made me miss it. Still didn?t answer to this day, have to find a new CPA in emergency.
Very efficient assistance with my admittedly very small potatoes international tax situation.
Excellent assistance with tax return.
A company to stay away. They will fail on everything and then just stop replying to you
Worst company I've deatl with EVER. Stay away!
great and fast service!
Everything was fast and professional

Look for a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license, which ensures they’ve passed rigorous exams and meet state requirements. Check for relevant experience in your industry, additional certifications like CFA or CMA, and membership in professional organizations like the AICPA. Verify their credentials through state licensing boards.
Use online directories like the AICPA, CPAverify, or state CPA societies. Search platforms like Yelp or Google for local CPAs with reviews. Ask for referrals from business associates, friends, or financial advisors. Local chambers of commerce can also provide recommendations.
A CPA is a licensed professional who has passed the CPA exam and met state requirements for education and experience. An accountant may lack this certification and could have varying levels of expertise. For complex tasks like tax audits or financial reporting, a CPA is typically more qualified.
Ask about their experience with your specific financial needs, such as tax preparation, small business accounting, or estate planning. Review their website or LinkedIn for case studies or client testimonials. Inquire about their client base to ensure they handle similar financial situations.
Yes, reviews provide insight into a CPA’s reliability, communication, and performance. Check platforms like Google, Yelp, or the Better Business Bureau for client feedback. Look for patterns in reviews, but verify their authenticity, as some may be biased or outdated.
Visit your state’s Board of Accountancy website or use CPAverify.org to check a CPA’s license status. Confirm their license is active and check for any disciplinary actions or complaints. This ensures they’re in good standing and meet professional standards.
Ask about their experience with your financial needs, fee structure, availability, and communication style. Inquire how they handle tax filings, audits, or financial planning. Ask for references or examples of similar work to assess their expertise and fit.
Fees vary based on location, services, and complexity. Basic tax preparation may cost $150-$500, while business accounting or audits can range from $1,000 to $10,000+. Request a detailed fee structure upfront and compare quotes from multiple CPAs.
Yes, many CPAs offer remote services through secure online platforms for document sharing and virtual consultations. Ensure they use encrypted tools for data security. Remote CPAs can be effective if they understand your local tax laws or business regulations.
During consultations, evaluate their ability to explain complex financial concepts clearly. Ask sample questions about taxes or financial strategies and note their responsiveness and clarity. Good communication ensures you understand their advice and fosters a productive relationship.
Beware of CPAs who guarantee specific tax refunds, lack a valid license, or have disciplinary actions on record. Avoid those with poor communication, vague fee structures, or negative reviews highlighting unethical behavior. Always verify their credentials independently.
Large firms offer more resources and specialized teams but may charge higher fees. Solo practitioners often provide personalized service and lower costs but may have limited availability. Choose based on your needs, budget, and preference for personalized attention.
For individuals, annual meetings for tax preparation may suffice. Businesses may need quarterly or monthly check-ins for bookkeeping, tax planning, or financial reporting. Discuss your needs upfront to establish a meeting schedule that aligns with your financial goals.
Yes, many CPAs handle both, but confirm their expertise in both areas. Ask about their experience managing personal taxes and business accounting simultaneously. Ensure they can balance both without compromising attention to your specific financial needs.
Discuss concerns directly with your CPA to resolve issues. If unresolved, check your contract for termination terms. Seek a new CPA by researching reviews, credentials, and referrals. Request your financial records to ensure a smooth transition to a new professional.
