Who it's for
Online tax filing, for the way you earn
The fastest way to file is to stop clicking through a 90-screen interview. TaxFile reads your W-2s, 1099s and receipts, classifies your income, finds the deductions and credits you qualify for, and runs an error check, then hands you a return to review and approve. You decide when to e-file, and it is submitted through an authorized IRS e-file provider. Pick the way you earn and see exactly how TaxFile files faster and finds more.
