Client Reviews of Kathy Billotte

I do not recommend working with Mrs. Billotte. She prepared a return for a 19 year old that had been living with her parent and earned 3K in income for the year. The 19 year old was still in high school that year. Given this evidence, she still filed the return with the 19 year old as a non-dependent which resulted in PA tax forgiveness. The parent brought the situation to me and I advised that he contact Mrs. Billotte and request an amendment. Mrs. Billotte became very combative and called the parent a "liar" even after the 19 year old admitted that they were the dependent of their parent. I contacted her myself to try and help straighten up the matter and she informed me that she does not care who I am and was combative. Given how combative she is, the parent opted to work with a different tax payer to amend their child's return and correct the situation. I would say that it is negligent to file a return on a high school student as an independent, particularly when that student only earned $3K, there was clearly no evidence that this was an independent person capable of supporting themselves. One star is only posted because the system requires. This situation deserves a negative rating.
