She outlined very clearly and concisely exactly what I needed to get to her and she then gave me an exact quote for what it would cost (which is on par, if not a bit lower than other accountants I have used in the past). Her turn around time, even given the impending filing deadline, was incredibly fast.

I wouldn't think to write about my accountant on Yelp, but I was…read moresurprised to see some of the ratings on Yelp for Intertax and thought I'd put in my two cents, my guess is that in however long Intertax has been around (I think more than 10 years?) there have been three disgruntled customers who have felt inclined to write about it online. Fair enough. I've been going to May for five years and I've always been really pleased with her work, and the work of her staff. She helped me with my tax returns each year, and is now taking care of my nanny tax paperwork. I tried understanding it and it was a total pain, so I'm glad she's taking care of it for me. Overall, I've been really satisfied with Intertax's work, and I'll be seeing May for my 2011 income tax return.

We were recommended third-hand by one of my employers agencies to Intertax because they specialized…read morein tax returns for non-residents (they don't). When we first visited to get our return done, we went with our fistful of paperwork to talk to an accountant at Intertax. There were a couple of what I thought were fairly minor misunderstandings and she rattled off a few questions and wrote down some notes based on what we said. I was a little uneasy about how filppantly she approached some issues but I figured that the US tax system was complex and that she knew what she was doing. We get a letter in the mail not long after with a copy of our return for us to post off to the IRS. I checked over it, and a large portion of the form was filled out incorrectly. They had somehow managed to get my first name and surname the wrong way around (even through I'd double-checked to ensure it was correct at the time of filing); they had listed myself and my wife as not being married, got a ton of the numbers wrong and a bunch of other basic details totally incorrect. I took some time off work to get to their office in time and went to their office to get things corrected. I had a highlighted list of corrections and the staff there took my form, ran into the back room and hurriedly re-prepared the form. At one stage, they misplaced it, and spend the next ten minutes looking for it in and around the giant mounds of paperwork that was everywhere. I checked over the numbers and as far as I could tell it was acceptable; they took the forms and they said that they'd mail it. A few weeks later I get an angry letter from the IRS with highlighted copy of my form listing all the points that had been filled out incorrectly. They had still incorrectly filled out some of the (not particularly complicated) deductions and had even managed to not submit the W2 with the return. That was one mistake too many for us and really not cool. San Francisco has treated us very, very well. Nearly everyone I've interacted with is friendly, helpful and competent, so I'm not handing out this one-star review lightly. I took the return instead to Liberty Tax service in Laurel Heights - those guys are awesome.

This is my first bad review and it pains me to write it, but I am so appalled by the way I was…read moretreated that I needed to share my experience with this firm. My husband and I had just bought a home and found ourselves in need of a CPA who could provide us with more guidance. We were won over by all the five star reviews and I enthusiastically reached out to get quotes and schedule an appointment with Sabrina Hager. We both have hectic careers and two young children. We made this appointment a priority and took time off from work. The day before our appointment, Sabrina's Accounting Assistant called me to tell me that the appointment needed to be rescheduled because "Sabrina was busy". That was literally the reason she gave us. Already, I had a bad feeling from this. I decided to give them another try and went ahead with the reschedule. I asked the Accounting Assistant to double confirm with Sabrina that she would commit to making the appointment since my husband and I would once again have to take precious time off work to make this appointment. The appointment was this morning. My husband and I rushed to Inner Richmond to be at the appointment on time despite our infant son being sick. We found ourselves being led into a tiny, claustrophobic, and incredibly messy residential basement used as the firm's office. A group of very nice Asian ladies--I guess Sabrina's assistants--greeted us. We were shocked at their work environment--literally four of them crammed into a tiny room haplessly overrun with boxes and papers. Sabrina's assistant sat us down in another cramped and messy room, then...here it comes..proceeded to tell us that Sabrina could not show up to the appointment "due to an emergency". I was dumbfounded. How did this firm get ANY business with the careless and atrocious way they treat people and their time? The Assistant was apologetic, and assured us that she could answer any questions we could have as she was working towards getting her CPA license. We asked her a number of questions that she faltered in answering. It was agonizingly awkward. I finally looked at my husband and said, "let's get out of here", and we left. This was one of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had.
