Better luck next time.
I bought into federal direct with no tax experience and I feel like I was set up for failure as I had no building and was peer pressured into buying the service with little to no training. However after talking it over John has given me a refund on the software and all I can say to that is thank you John that really helped out. All I could say is if you are going to do taxes, be prepared to succeed study taxes from a few years back if you have to, get a building, put the software to use and their team will help you Im sure of it.
Professional, helpful, friendly
doing business with federal direct is like doing business with an old friend there's not one thing they won't do to assist you, so you know they are there to help you succeed
Federal Direct the Ultimate Tax Office.
I have been working with Federal Direct Tax Services for 5 tax seasons, since 2010. I appreciate the attention and assistance that they give me at ALL times. Any issues I have with my clients' returns, they are willing and capable of assisting me with a resolution.
I like the fact that everything I need is under one "roof". Continuing education, Tax Updates, Forms, Consultants and especially the tech-support.
I have confidently recommend them to individuals that desired to start their own tax business.
Thank you for Federal Direct Staff for being there for me.

Very fast service and easy to understand their answers on what asked to them. I will recommend this company to those who have a business tax service. Federal Direct is 105%.
Great people to work with.
Three years and counting. I absolutely love working with Federal Direct. The people are number one in my book when it comes to taxes. There is not a question asked that they cannot answer.
Not one complaint, very satified with their services.
We have been working with Federal Direct for several years now. They have been very helpful in every aspect of the income tax business. I knew very little about processing an income tax return. Today i feel confident. I recommend Federal Direct to anyone interested in income tax services.

business Review
Great experience working with the management team, they are friendly and helpful in all aspects of getting a business set up
Excellent Service
the whole staff is really 100% business professional and caring. If this is a person first or many years of experience in the tax field they give good sound information and have the most up-to-date technology and information. I would rate them really an exceptional company based business for now and many years to come.
Level of service is excellent
My experience with Federal Direct Tax Services has been beyond expectations.All phone calls to them are returned promptly and everyone is very nice and helpful. They follow up on matters that concern you to keep you on track and are more than willing to help you succeed in the Tax Preparation Business.
Excellent training and individual assistance
My initial training first began with system installation by Tony. Tony did a great job initializing the Federal Direct software, explaining the process, and completing the install all with ease. The next day was an overview and training by Richard. Through remote log-on, Richard provided clear and concise instruction as he trained me on the hierarchy of the software, lead me through many examples, schedules, filing costs, and we even discussed hot topical tax issues pertinent to 2015 filing. He spent a very generous amount of time teaching in the various areas including other resources available to me as a Federal Direct partner and the various IRS certifications available. Richard is a very gifted trainer and will ask for him the next time I have a training need. Thanks to both Tony and Richard for more than excellent service! I am very appreciative of your profound care and consideration assisting me in this journey to success.

Federal Direct Tax Services Review
I am still in the start up phase, but so far service has been excellent. Every time I call I get a live person answering and I usually get my questions answered on the spot. The roll out and training has been excellent and the software seems very easy to use. I would recommend them to anyone.
