Question US Tax Prep/Help

Does anyone have a recommendation for a tax person or similar service you have used that is familiar with US income tax and preparation? Ideally they would be familiar with the details/package from a DXB based airline.

Thanks!

Unless, you have a complicated tax situation, give Turbo Tax a try. I have used them for years while overseas with no problems. It will cost around $100/yr and you can also add audit defense if you wish, which means you never have to deal with the IRS in case of an audit. The software is pretty good about leading you to the areas you need to be in even when in comes to overseas income.

I have used turbo tax the past few years, and I hope it has all been correct! Its time to seek out a bit of help from someone that actually knows the in's and out's of the tax laws so I dont do something that will harm us down the road.

Thanks for the replys.

PM sent.

Not so much as an issue with the program but more so I don't want to make errors with the foreign income and expenses.
It gets pretty complicated with the education payments, housing scheme, provident fund, etc....
