    We have used Allyson two years in a row to help us navigate years when we lived in both the US and the UK. She made the process very easy for us and straightforward and also coordinated with the UK accountant to make sure information and documents were being shared. Great experience!

    Working with Katyelnn was a pleasure. She was knowledgeable, explained and answered all my questions well, and was effective. Briaght!Tax took this painful thing we all need to do and made it as simple as possible without a long drawn out process. If I know of any other American expats whom need tax assistance I will gladly recommend Bright!Tax to them. Thank you for helping me and for not breaking the bank doing it. Milton

    Katelynn was great to work with. The process of uploading documents was simple and the team was in constant communication at every step. Katelynn really made the process of filing my corporate taxes easy (which I had tried to DIY previously). She also consulted and resolved a few tax questions about my business. I look forward to working with her again.

    Allyson is great - she really takes the time to understand my specific situation and this year did a massive job of redoing multiple past years tax returns to ensure I was setup for success. This year, she also uncovered my ability to declare Irish Pension based on US & Ireland treaty agreements which has helped secure additional tax credits for my future returns. I have recommended your service to multiple expats at my company with similar circumstances to my own and will continue to do so. Look forward to utilizing your services again next year.

    My experience at Bright!Tax was mostly good the team assigned to my case were efficient and informative. Some points were still confusing , but everything was eventually explained to me, and the team did help me make some savings on my tax bill, so that was very good! I also gave Bright!Tax POA, as I am in Afghanistan and unable to make direct comms with tax officials in USA, so this extra service was very helpful. I would recommend Bright!Tax to other people, should I ever meet any expats needing good tax advice.

    Working with Bright!Tax was such an easy and painless process. I'm a US citizen and lived and worked in the UK for about 4 years. Our family CPA (in the US) was unaware of various US filing requirements, such as that the US insists on annual tax returns based on citizenship rather than residency meaning, if you're a US citizen, you file each year, regardless of where your income arises (oops!). Allyson is so knowledgeable and experienced working with expats and definitely made me feel at ease, especially having to file several years' worth of taxes at once. I'm very grateful for her and Bright!Tax and would highly recommend them.

    From the very beginning, Bright!Tax has been communicative, patient and knowledgeable. As someone who assumed my returns would always be $0, it was great to work with someone who was knowledgeable with the Spanish tax system as well as my rights and filing obligations as an American abroad.Special thanks go to Katelynn and Dafne, who helped me through some tricky laws and to understand how my taxes abroad affected those back home. To my surprise, I was owed a return that's equivalent to one month of my salary in Spain!I did have some issues with the secure upload tool, but overall my experience was positive, and I will be recommending Bright!Tax to others without reservation. My thanks to the whole team!

I recommend highly to all my US expat friends who are amazed that I am up-to-date and often ahead of the curve on complex taxation. I recommend highly. Thanks.

    This year has been a great experience with Bright!Tax -- a big improvment over last years problems which you seem to have vanquished.I would make one suggestion. I understand that when filing the 1040 it is possible to make a direct payment of any taxes owed. It would be much more convenient if the payment of your fees and the payment of the taxes due could be made at the same time through you. (on an optional basis of course).

    Allyson has been a joy to work with, as always. She understands the situation I'm in and provides good advise. This is the 2nd time I've worked with her. Will be looking for her again next year when I end my expat assignment.

    Very fast, very easy. Also the only tax preparer that didn't result in a nasty letter from the IRS.
