We live abroad in Italy and needed to file our US taxes for our family. Sofia Mosca was extremely professional and thorough with all the documents. She answered every question we had and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Everything was completed on time. I highly recommend Universal Tax Professionals!

Highly recommend if you live abroad and need help filing expat taxes. I worked with Carlos to file my return and he made the process easy to understand plus answered my (many!) questions. I don't enjoy doing taxes, but someone else getting it right while making it easy for me is worth every penny.

We have filed our taxes with Universal for over 5 years now. We have a complicated situation, being US Citizens working in one country but living in another. Universal always answers our questions thoroughly and our taxes are filed very quickly. Thank you!

Yhail and Josh helped me submit my Streamlined overseas taxes in time for the April deadline, when many other tax professionals had turned me down as a self-employed UK citizen. They were extremely personable and responsive to my many questions. I have recommended them to all my fellow US citizens residing in the UK as they were superb!! :)

First time using the tax services of Universal Tax Professionals. I was very impressed with the professionalism I experienced with the folks there. My US Tax return was completed in a short time and my inquiries were always answered the same day I sent them. Their costs are very reasonable. Overall, a very positive experience. I will definitely use their services again!

This was my first year using Universal Tax Professionals, and it was, by far, my easiest and most pleasant 1040 filing ever, in spite of the newly-added complexity of my living abroad. Everybody at the firm was fantastic to work with. They gave me timely updates and good advice at every stage, and I never had to worry about the process.
