	Do you know roughly how much Denise would charge to do a straight-forward Swiss tax return? I see an hourly rate of CHF150- for tax-related matters, but I have no idea how long it takes for a professional to deal with a tax form. And does she deal with all Kantons (specifically, BL in my case) or just Zurich?

Don't know if she deals with BL, but a quick email to her should do it. Her charge for a straight forward Swiss tax return is around 150.-.

Dear English Forum

I am looking for a simple tax return specialist in the kanton of Zurich (Treuhand). I am basically able to do most of the declaration myself but would really like an seassoned proffesional to do the rest.

Any one have any contacts, prefferable an english speaker, but not a must?

Really appreciate your help and feedback.

Kind Regard

Frederik

I can recommend Philipp Kuster from Alpha Finanze. He's friendly and easy-going and helped me by going through my filled tax-return.

You can ring or send him an e-mail directly here. He speaks good english.

Good luck

	If you need a Zurich based advisor - great price, great service; try : Patrick Kaiser - patrick.kaiser@hispeed.ch Have used him for last 5years, and spot on...

He charges a lot more than most others (75% more), and his not linked to an accountancy firm. Frankly I don’t know what accreditation he has other than being able to speak German to do the online tax form (which is free). His hot on charging and extorting money, be careful. You have been warned.

Use someone like www.colfina.ch. I found them efficient, accredited and much better value.

	Hi - I am an American expat myself and found this firm to be very good for help with expatriate tax returns - www.taxesforexpats.com Their web site also has a lot of relevant info - about foreign earned income exclusion, IRS deadlines, FBAR filing, etc. I used them last year and was very impressed, so happy to recommend to others.

Just curious if anyone else has used this company (Taxes for Expats) - they have a lot of great information on their website, but I haven't seen any reviews from anyone that didn't have just 1 or 2 reviews or posts to their name. Thanks!
