30 Years of Getting It
Right the First Time.
Since 1996, MEJPBS has helped Harlem residents and clients across the five boroughs file their personal income taxes correctly and with as little stress as possible — whether it's a straightforward W-2 return, a first-time filing for a new immigrant, or years of back taxes that finally need to get caught up.
As a translation and interpreting company first, we bring something most tax preparers can't: the ability to walk you through your return in your own language, in 170+ languages — so nothing gets lost between what you tell us and what goes on the form.
