CROSS-BORDER TAX ADVOCATES

The tax advocate for people whose lives cross borders.

Taxes are hard. Cross-border taxes are harder — too complex for software, and too easily overlooked by firms built for everything else. We stay engaged year-round, and we can represent you before the IRS.

Enrolled agents

Authorized to represent you directly before the IRS — not just prepare your return.

Two sessions every year

Before tax season and after, so issues surface while there is still time to fix them.

Fees quoted up front

Matched to the actual complexity of your situation — never to a five-minute intake form.

Built for complicated situations

Foreign service officers & families

State-side filing obligations while posted abroad, allowances, moves mid-year, and spouses working on the local economy.

Expats & Americans abroad

Foreign earned income, foreign accounts and FBAR, treaty positions, and the timing decisions that quietly cost people money.

Newcomers to the U.S.

First filings, residency and non-resident status, and a patient walk-through in plain language for people navigating an unfamiliar system.

HOW WE WORK

Most preparers collect your forms, disappear, and send back a PDF in April — by which point the mistakes are already permanent. We check in with you twice a year, so nothing surprises you in April.

01

Before tax season

A planning session while decisions can still change the outcome — a move, a marriage, a new posting, a first job in the U.S.

02

Your return, prepared

Federal and state returns (Form 1040 / 1040-NR), including sole proprietors and income in more than one country.

03

After filing

A follow-up session to review what changed — and year-round access to the people on your file when questions come up.

Three commitments

01

Proactive

We get ahead of problems, not after them.

Two sessions with every client — before tax season and after — so issues surface while there is still time to fix them. Not in January, when the documents are already final.

02

Approachable

A relationship, not a transaction.

No call centers, no case numbers. You always know exactly who is on the other end of your file, and you can bring us a problem before it becomes a bigger one.

03

Expert advocate

Clear expertise, held with respect.

As enrolled agents we can represent you directly before the IRS — not just prepare your return. We have handled international filings like yours before.

Right service, right price

Fees are quoted up front and matched to the actual complexity of your situation — never to a five-minute intake form.

Individual returns (Form 1040 / 1040-NR)

Federal and state, including sole proprietors and clients with income in more than one country.

Cross-border tax planning

Pre-season and post-season consultations, so decisions get made while they can still change the outcome.

IRS representation

Notices, examinations, and correspondence handled by enrolled agents on your behalf.

Year-round questions

A move, a marriage, a new posting, a first job in the U.S. — call before it becomes a filing problem.
