Disclaimer: I was recommended to utilize David Zhang's expertise by a family friend of David. This…read morereview is not on the employee (who was pleasant) but it is on David. I first went to consult David back in March 2022 and he was great. He answered all my tax questions and I was in and out of the office in no time. I thought to myself, great, I just found an amazing accountant in my neighborhood. During that time, I explained to David about my situation and he responded to come back to me when tax season is over and all he has to do is to file a 1040x (to amend my tax return - 1040). (Side note: The issue that I had was that I initially e-filed my taxes. The federal rejected it but the state accepted it. Which is why I went to seek professional services in resolving the problem). So on December 12, 2022 at 1:30pm I went to see David and his office was busy. I told David I did not have an appointment and I asked, "should I make an appointment"? He decided to hear me out at first but then he passed my case to one of his employees. The employee explained to me that since I did not file my taxes 2020 taxes with them, there is nothing that they can do and I would have to come back during tax season. I tried to explain to them what David told me back in April (to come back after tax season) and David told his employee in Chinese "just ignore him, he is too annoying". Yup, just because someone doesn't speak the language, doesn't mean the person does not understand. The funny thing is that, just over the weekend, the same family friend asked me how was my experience with David because she wanted to file her taxes with him for the upcoming year. I raved about how great he was the first time around but after this experience, it got me to think: if a family friend doesn't even use your service in the first place, it is extremely telling of your professional demeanor or the lack thereof. This review will probably not affect the business but if you are looking for a tax accountant in Elmhurst, stay far away from this place.

Thats fine, but the reason for the 1 star review is that the receptionist hung up on me without saying thank you or good bye. I said I prefer to come into the office and she said she would check to see if that is possible and put me on a brief hold and when she came back on the line she said: "We won't be able to do that." And then just hung up immediately. No closing salutation, nothing. I don't think I am being very picky about etiquette to say hanging up on a customer is beyond rude and unprofessional.

I've used this office for two years and am honestly shocked to realize how fraudulent this business…read moreis. I was adamant about hiring a CPA because I had issues with a non professional in the past. Jugdeep knew this, yet he misrepresented himself, I've since confirmed he does NOT have a CPA license by a quick license lookup. Until recently, he was pleasant, I even posted him on TikTok and brought him clientele in the past. I moved out of the country last August, he knew this, his attitude recently turned VERY nasty. After giving me the run around and asking for more documents (which I sent immediately), he completely snapped. He told me to send someone in my place to come sign my papers, when I tried to coordinate a time for someone to sign, he told me verbatim: "I don't want to do your taxes. Find someone else. Your taxes are a mess." Like why would you tell me to have someone sign and then tell me you're busy on the day I said I can send someone, and then tell me you don't want to do them? He waited until the literal day before my taxes were due to bail, knowing I was out of the country. A real professional would never desert a client like that. I am very pleasant and respectful, so because you don't know how to do my taxes because you're not a real cpa, you decided to be nasty with me? How mature. There were major red flags I should have listened to: He gives clients business cards with flash drives and insists we don't use email because it "leaves a trail." My business is 100% legit, so this is a huge red flag for illegal activity. Secondly, I was audited last year, and the numbers never made sense. I now believe he was the cause. I've dealt with a fraudulent tax preparer before who actually ended up in prison for fraud, this experience feels exactly the same. I am reporting him to the IRS OPR and the New York OPR. I dodged a bullet by looking into him, but please, save yourself the trouble and go to a real professional. Judging by his responses to all the negative comments I'm sure he will deflect and somehow turn this on me which is fine, I was 100% honest with this review. You can deflect your business practices to the law, I genuinely would have never went to him had I read the negative reviews.

The entire office has such an expansive knowledge of all things income tax. I work 1099 and Chami helped me expense the correct items for maximum deduction. When i say with him, he told me straight up "you messed up man, but im here to help." Dont worry about the specifics of what I did. Just know that he helped me feel comfortable and got me through it. If you are self employed, work in the TLC taxi or FHV of NYC, this guy knows his stuff. And for all the people wondering, NO, it's not $60 to file like TurboTax or HRBlock. But keep in mind.... You get what you pay for. Do yourself a favor and go to the people that actually study the changing US Tax laws. Tax Genius knows what they're doing.

I would not recommend doing any business with this firm, especially Waseem based on my experience…read more After receiving an IRS audit notice, I reached out expecting guidance. Instead, I was told I would be charged additional fees just for them to respond and submit documentation on my behalf--despite them having prepared the original return. Even more concerning was the lack of communication and education. Important topics like depreciation, depreciation recapture, and proper land vs. building allocation were never clearly explained, leaving me exposed to potential tax implications without understanding the full picture. When I later asked for my depreciation schedule, I was questioned about why I needed it or interested in this topic now rather than simply being provided my own records. That response alone was both unprofessional and concerning. If you're looking for a CPA who is proactive, transparent, and actually guides you through the tax strategy side--not just filing forms--I would suggest looking elsewhere.

The office staff is very nice. For any reason if I cannot answer their call, they leave a voicemail and send an email. I never had to try to get a hold of them. I refer almost all of my friends who are looking for professional tax specialists. I had to switch maybe 3-4 tax specialists until I was referred to this office. I felt like other tax specialists were just filing my taxes before just to get over with. They never asked questions about what is coming into my account and what is going out of it and for what purpose. Since this office is added to my QuickBooks, they analyze the account activity. I have used TurboTax and H&R Block in the past, years later I realize that I never knew all tax benefits that I was eligible for. I never got any tax returns. Uncle Sam would never give me. You can use self-service platforms only if you know exactly what you are doing. My situation is not that simple, I have multiple 1099 like forms, W2, tax forms from trading platforms like Webull and TD AmeriTrade from stock trading, so I need a professional eye to go through them. They service individual and corporate clients, so I believe no client is too small or too big for them. Give it a try!
