Great people .. Helpful whenever I had a question.. Patient with me because I am not very techy. Phone calls were helpful and they out of their way to mail me things when I couldn't do things by computer or phone internet.

The misleading of their media advertisment into the idea that they will save you thousands of dollars is false. They also lost information given and asked for things I did not think were proper, and when I adressed them were put aside.

The experience with Alan S. has been amazing. It honestly feels that we have established a real friendship. To have that kind of support in dealing with tax problems is a huge blessing and truly appreciated.

Paid $5,000 in January, taxes were done incorrect with an ex-husband's social security number, absolutely no deductions taken. Redone the second time and I still don't believe all deductions were taken, but I signed them. Had a call regarding financials last month, another call yesterday, asking for my financials again. Was then told I owed 25K more than the amount that was shown on my tax form. I don't even know if they filed them yet! I have a call today @ 10:30 with an attorney, but I'm holding my breath.

The Final Word
Optima Tax Relief only accepts clients with at least $10,000 of tax debt. Community Tax has a lower threshold — $7,000. If you have less than $10,000 in tax debt, Optima Tax Relief is not an option for you.
Both Community Tax and Optima Tax Relief offer three plans for preventive tax monitoring. Community Tax’s base plan is free. It includes tax monitoring, quarterly reports, access to discount codes, and comes with the TaxPal mobile app.
While it’s nice to have access to preventive monitoring for free, Optima Tax Relief’s base plan offers more services, like tax preparation software and identity theft monitoring. If you’re interested in those services, it may be worth it to choose Optima Tax Relief over Community Tax.
Optima Tax Relief also offers two additional protection plans. One is designed for self-employed people and the other for W-2 earners. Community Tax also has two additional plans: one is designed for business owners and the other is designed for individuals. The kind of protection plan you need will affect which company is best for you.
