We used TaxShy’s services for my parent’s tax return. As new US GC holders, their return was complicated by their financial interests in 2 other countries. My parents are not very tech savvy, and Aarti worked very well with them to collate the list of items needed for their complex international tax return including credits from India. All through the process, Aarti impressed with her knowledge, patience working through the tons of reporting forms, leading to a successful filing on time. Highly recommend Aarti for all your tax needs, especially if it involves international tax situations.

Aarti explained exactly what I needed to do and I feel comfortable going back to her in the future. Great work!
