All you have to do to file your return is answer a few questions and provide information from your tax documents (such as W-2, 1099-R, 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, or 1099-G). Then submit, sit back, and let us do the heavy lifting!

ELECTRO‑Tax covers a vast majority of the most common personal income tax situations. However, not all taxpayers will be able to utilize the tax preparation and e-filing service.
Once you've registered or signed in, simply answer questions for you, your spouse, and your dependents (if applicable). You will also need to provide necessary information from your tax documents. These documents can be a W-2 Wage Statement, 1099-R Pension Statements, 1099-INT Interest Statement, 1099-DIV Dividends, 1099-SSA Social Security Benefits, or 1099-G Government Payment (generally used to report unemployment income).

Why do I have to download? you may ask. To keep your tax information safe and reduce vulnerability to hacking, your information will never simply sit on our website. Once you download your encrypted tax file, your information will be cleared from our website. To pick up where you left off, you must upload your saved file to the dashboard (the first step after logging in).
This process aids in securing your tax information.
Once you're satisfied with the information you have entered, you will be able to review your tax return results. Are you getting a refund? Do you owe more taxes?
At this point, you will also be able to download and print your full tax return as a PDF.
Once you're satisfied with your results, click Calculate & Efile and provide a bit more information. Your tax return information will be processed, packaged, encrypted, and transmitted securely to the IRS.
After the IRS has reviewed and processed your tax return — generally within 24 to 48 hours after receiving your tax return — we will post to your dashboard whether the IRS has accepted or rejected your tax return (along with the reasons it was rejected).
When the IRS has accepted the tax return you submitted, use the IRS's Where's My Refund tool to track your refund status or use the IRS secure payment system to pay any taxes you may owe.
