Why We Built Taxsure.ai: The NRI Tax Struggle

Why We Built Taxsure.ai. When I first moved to Canada, I knew adjusting to a new country would be tough—but nothing prepared me for the challenge of managing my Indian taxes from thousands of miles away. Back in India, filing was simple: I had a CA I trusted, and everything happened face-to-face. Suddenly, I found myself juggling time zones, missed calls, and late-night WhatsApp messages, just to get basic questions answered.

The paperwork felt endless. Coordinating with a CA back home meant long waits for responses, constant follow-ups, and a lingering sense of uncertainty that I was missing something important. Every deadline brought stress. Even simple things, like sending documents, became complex and frustrating.

So I looked for help from experts in cross-border taxation. The quotes I received from big consulting firms shocked me—thousands of dollars for services I didn’t really need, just because I lived abroad. Despite my background in business and my network in finance and accounting, I still felt lost and overwhelmed.

I couldn’t stop thinking: if I’m finding this so difficult, what must it be like for other NRIs, especially those without these connections or resources? Talking to friends, I realized my experience wasn’t unique—nearly everyone I spoke to had their own version of this story. That’s when it hit me: in a world where AI is making everyday life easier, why should tax filing for NRIs still feel stuck in the past?

That’s how Taxsure was born. I teamed up with people who truly understood the NRI struggle to build a platform that’s simple, transparent, and designed for people like us—so that managing taxes from anywhere feels just as easy as being at home.
