Getting started ASAP!

Not to worry! We can have you started in no time!

Click ‘Get Started’

In the upper right corner of the screen, you can click the “Get Started” button to create an account for free.
Once your account is created, you can save your progress and return anytime you like. Returning to your progress is just as easy as clicking “Get Started” and signing back in.

If you’ve already made an account with us, click the “Login” button in the top right to return to your account.

Filling out some basics

After signing in to your account, you’ll be guided through a step-by-step process.
We’ll need some basic information about you and your tax situation, then our system can help you to tackle the deeper questions about your tax filings to help ensure you’ve not missed anything.

Upgrading

Everyone starts with the Standard, “Do-It-Yourself”, process.
Some forms may require an upgrade to a higher tier for us to complete, due to their complexity.
For more information about pricing, see our pricing guide and comparisons.

All upgrades and add-ons are also displayed again before your final checkout and purchase.

At any point in the process, you can choose to upgrade for additional support.
This can even include a 30 minute call with one of our professional tax experts to go over your unique situation.
Our tax team is made up of real, actual people and not any AI.

The highest tier allows you to fill out some basics, upload your relevant documents, and then relax!
After your scheduled 30-minute call, we will contact you within 24 hours with a draft of your tax return or any outstanding follow-up needs.

For more information, you can read about what happens after upgrading.

After checkout

Once you’ve approved of everything and paid at checkout, your draft tax return(s) will be generated. You can provide feedback on your draft, raise questions, and have confidence that everything is in order.
And last but not least, with your authorization, we finalize your return!

Sending off the paperwork

You’ll be asked to confirm the results and calculations, then our expert tax team will e-file your tax returns to the IRS.
Should you desire or need, you can also print and mail your tax returns the old-fashioned way via postal mail.

Ta Da! It’s really that easy.

Now you can get back to the things that are way more fun than doing your taxes!
