This institution is a complete and abject failure at the service it claims to provide. I was just…read morelooking at the other reviews and am baffled to find that I am not the only one with these problems. They forgot to file my 2016 tax returns. The whole reason to go to a CPA in the first place is the expectation that they would do their due diligence. It is one thing to make an accounting mistake in the returns but how could they forget to file the returns? I have never experienced such blatant incompetence with any service in my life, much less with something as crucial as Tax returns! Add to this I opted for the peace of mind service and I got the exact opposite of what I paid for. I actually regret having to even give the one star. This business deserves -5 stars if possible. When they tried the fix it a whole year later they wouldn't even pay for priority mail and would have me pay for tracking and postage if I wasn't going to chose the traditional mail. 2016 was the first year I even chose to go to an accountant instead of doing it myself online specifically because it was a year where I wanted to be particularly safe in my filings. This is such a disastrous turn that I am completely enraged with their conduct and their lackadaisical attitude towards their customers. Here's an advice for anyone considering going here, run! I don't have many regrets in my life but I wish I could go back in time to never go here.
