Automated tax filing that does the prep and waits for your approval
Most of tax filing is mechanical: reading the same kinds of forms, transcribing numbers into the right lines, running the calculations, and checking for slips. That repetitive work is exactly what should be automated. What should never be automated is filing your return without your knowledge, since the return is yours and the responsibility is yours.
TaxFile automates the preparation and the math, then stops. It reads your W-2s and 1099s, fills your federal and state return, finds the deductions and credits you qualify for, and runs an error check, all automatically. Then it hands the return back to you. You review every part, and TaxFile e-files through an authorized IRS e-file provider only once you approve. It never files silently. Not tax advice. Review your return before filing. For complex situations, consult a CPA or tax professional.

Why it works
What you get with automated tax filing
Automates the prep
Reading forms, filling lines, finding deductions, and running the math happen automatically, so the tedious part of filing is off your plate.
Stops before filing
Automation prepares the return, but the final submit is never automatic. You approve before anything e-files, so you stay responsible and in control.
Consistent and checked
An automated error check applies the same scrutiny every time, catching slips a tired manual pass might miss before you review.
What it handles
Prepared, checked and ready to review
TaxFile reads your W-2s, 1099s and receipts, classifies your income, finds the deductions and credits you qualify for, runs an error and audit-risk check, and assembles a return you review and approve before filing.
- Reads forms and fills your return automatically
- Finds deductions and credits you qualify for
- Runs an automated error check
- Hands the return back for your review
- E-files through an authorized IRS e-file provider only after you approve
Why TaxFile
One place to prepare, check and file your return
Not a 90-screen interview, not an expensive preparer, and not bare DIY forms. Upload or chat, find your deductions, run the error check, and review before filing, all in one place.
Reads your documents
Upload your W-2s, 1099s and receipts or just answer a few questions. TaxFile reads everything, classifies your income, and fills the forms, so you skip the long interview the old software puts you through.
Finds your deductions
Built for 1099 and Schedule C income, TaxFile surfaces the write-offs and credits you qualify for, each with the dollar amount and a plain-English reason, so you claim what is yours.
Checks before you file
An automated error, consistency and audit-risk check runs over your whole return. You review every figure and approve it, and it is e-filed through an authorized IRS e-file provider only when you say so.
