We engaged Community Tax and were thrilled all the way through with their level of service, knowledge, guidance, and timing. They were nothing but fantastic. There was so much value in what they did, and the cost was fine. It reduced the stress that we were under in dealing with being in arrears. It impacted our lives very favorably because the settlement was favorable.
Thank you for your great rating and review!

I had the pleasure of working with Teri ** and Ashley **. This teamed help me navigate the complex settlement with the IRS and help release multiple levies in the various productions I work on. They made me feel comfortable and taken care as they negotiated with the IRS and gave a good timeline of when things would happen. Can’t recommend them enough.
Thank you for your great rating and review!

The folks at Community Tax....a LIFE SAVER. When I tell you the IRS was on me, it all started with the letters. They began to come more frequent so I started looking for help. Shout out to Liberty Tax. They connected me to Community Tax. I spoke with David, I gave him my entire run down. Then he connects me to Brian, it was the 1st week I believe, that he got me squared away. He set me up with a payment plan (that I can afford). You guys I thought I owed the IRS a TON of money, I was wrong. It turned out to be half of what I thought I owed. Call Community Tax ASAP. They will help you, and answer ALL your questions. Believe me I was texting them and everything, yep they will call you back. Thank you David and Brian. I know it took me forever to write this review. #CommunityTax

I dealt with Maurine through emails and over the phone. There was a little misunderstanding here and there, but everything was fine at the end. Community Tax helped me and we closed out the case. Out of 20,000, I still paid 17,000.
