Which expat tax filing company to choose?
« on: March 23, 2025, 11:12:43 AM »
Hello all, 

My American husband has been in the UK for 10 months now, and this will be his first time filing as an expat. He wants to use a filing company, and since he used H&R Block in the US, that seems like the natural choice. However, we’re wondering if there are any other companies people would recommend? 

Also, the deadlines are a bit confusing. I understand that the expat filing deadline is in June, but taxes are still technically due in April, so what happens if you file in June instead? 

Thanks!

Golden Rules for choosing a great tax professional when in the UK:
1. QUALIFICATIONS
Do not be shy! Ask if they are members of professional bodies in both the US and UK and if so, which ones and for how long. [Only a small number are dually qualified, which is 100% essential.]
2. COST
Ask what they charge!
3. COMFORT
Pick one who is dually US/UK qualified (so you know that the tax preparer is regulated in both the US and the UK) and who you feel you can get on with. This is a personal choice so call a few firms before deciding...

I have three that come to mind

Tower Tax (although I don't think they are accepting new clients)
britishamericantax.com
americantaxreturns.co.uk (now part of Oury Clark)
