Clear and sensible advice ,with patience, to an Octogenarian

I am a Senior with dual UK/USA citizenship and needed assistance in seeking an Automatic Extension of Time to FIle US Individual Income Tax Return (IRS Form 4868).
There is a difference in the time I can obtain broker's information because the UK tax year from from mid April whereas the US runs from 1st January so I had a query about completing this form. Tax Bandit's Representative (Chat Line "Smith) took some time to research my situation but I got all the help and answers I needed from him and am therefore highly impressed with Tax Bandit's knowledge, patience, politeness and service.

Terrible experience

Terrible experience. The software routed my live tax filings (W-2 and 94X) into a developer 'sandbox' without any clear warning. I thought my forms were securely filed with the IRS, but they were not. Customer support took weeks to inform me that my data was trapped in a test environment. I had to use a competitor at the last minute to avoid IRS penalties. Do not trust this platform with your tax compliance.

I am a CPA filing for my clients

I am a CPA filing for my clients. It was my first time filing with TaxBandits and I love the whole experience. I was able to invite my team and they could assist me with the filing with no additional cost while the other providers like tax1099, yearli, and track1099 charges an annual subscription for the same. This should be a goto tool for the professionals who are looking for a smarter and effective way of managing tax filing.

The software does not allow for…E-File Name Control corrections & Staff can't comprehend this.

The software does not allow for adjusting the e-file's name control; thus causing IRS rejections. When reaching out to their US customer support on live-agent chat (chat with Joel), the agent simply sent copies of help articles I already read that did not answer the question. And when I explained what the issue was, he just advised me to file again with the correct name and EIN. THE NAME & EIN IS CORRECT!! HOW MANY TIMES SHOULD I REPEAT MYSELF!?!?!?! The agent could not seem to understand that we need to change the name control as the business entity's name and EIN matched IRS records, but it was simply the name control that was off. The name control is something that Tax Bandits generates and is not editable on the user's end. I feel like the live agent was more of a Robot who got hung up in a loop but I am sure that I selected to chat with the live agent as they do make that part clear in the chat selection box. It was a complete waste of time and many accountants know that time is precious when payroll tax deadlines are pending.

The TaxBandits team is amazing to work with!

We had an excellent experience using TaxBandits to file 1099-NECs for our customers this year. From start to finish, their team—especially Tiffanie, Christina, Nick, and Sharly—was incredibly responsive, patient, and supportive. Whether we were working with their sales, support, or development teams, we consistently received prompt responses (often within hours) and thoughtful solutions. As a company with a complex, high-volume use case, we also appreciated their willingness to listen to product feedback and quickly implement feature requests that made a real difference for us. Their UI was intuitive and user-friendly—a significant improvement over other tax filing platforms we've used. Additionally, their extensive Knowledge Base and video resources made it easy to troubleshoot issues independently before reaching out to support.

While our experience was overwhelmingly positive, we did encounter some UI and API bugs that required support intervention. This may be due to our specific use case, but we’d love to see continued improvements in stability. That said, their support team was always quick to resolve any issues that arose, making these challenges much easier to navigate. We have already recommended TaxBandits to others in our industry and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Want to much sensitive info that is unnecessary

Signed up and they want to “ verify “ my info after I put it very sensitive information. No one else seems to need a picture of my license and a selfie . Not going to do it . I put in all the correct info for my company including ein number and address . That’s good enough for other form places to make tax forms . Not cool on your part

This is a wonderful program to use

This is a wonderful program to use. It is very simple, you only have to type in the information one time, not like on other programs. It was so very fast, and very cost effective.

Love that the fact I was able to continue where I last left off and not required to start over, that there were other forms available that might be of use in the future.

Outstanding Experience

I stumbled upon TaxBandits in 2022 while in urgent need of a solution for submitting our quarterly payroll tax returns to the IRS. Since then, my experience with them has been nothing short of outstanding. The user-friendliness of their website is a major plus, making the daunting task of tax filing surprisingly straightforward and stress-free.

One of the most remarkable aspects of TaxBandits is their impeccable reliability. Every return has been transmitted timely and accurately, ensuring compliance and peace of mind. Additionally, the cost of their services is incredibly reasonable, especially considering the immense value they provide. It's a negligible expense for the efficiency and accuracy they offer.

The benefits extend beyond just the filing process. Employees and vendors have convenient online access to their W2 and 1099 forms, respectively, which simplifies the distribution and accessibility of these important documents.

In summary, my experience with TaxBandits has been thoroughly positive. There isn't a single aspect of their service that I've found lacking. For anyone in need of a dependable, efficient, and user-friendly tax filing solution, I wholeheartedly recommend TaxBandits. They have consistently exceeded my expectations and have made the tax filing process a breeze.
