Be aware of companies that promise to get you back a lot more money than other companies or to get back 100% of your tax refund. You are only entitled to claim back tax that you have overpaid – not all of the total tax you paid – except in exceptional circumstances.

Using a tax professional will mean you may get back expenses and credits you weren't aware of or didn't know how to claim, but there are no “tricks” to getting a bigger tax refund. Make sure your tax refund company is following the law and claiming back all the refunds you're legally owed. Claiming back tax money you're not entitled to can lead to legal and financial problems for you in the future.

Make sure your tax company is professional. Using a professional with a good reputation means you'll avoid being scammed. Taxback.com is a Registered Agent with HM Revenue and Customs in the UK and has an Authorised Tax Agent in Australia and a Certified Public Accountant in the US. Our tax experts make sure your tax return is 100% legal and includes any tax credits or refunds you may be due.

You should also make sure your tax company provides transparent information on all their dealings with your tax return. You should be able to receive ongoing updates on all actions taken on your tax details and full information on your expected refund amount and fees for any tax preparation services.
