How do I prepay my tax preparation fees?
- Sign in to your account and select Continue from the Tax Home screen.
- From the menu on the left, select Review, then choose Print Results.
- Review your charges and select the debit card or credit card payment option.
- Select Continue, enter your payment information, and submit your payment.
Does prepaying include my state return fee?
It can, but only if you've already added a state return to your account.
If you've completed a federal return and want to prepay fees for both your federal and state returns, add the state return before making your payment.
To add a state return:
- Sign in to your account.
- Select the State section.
- Choose Add a State Return.
- Select your state and choose Continue.
- Select your residency status and choose Continue.
- Complete the Basic Information section. You can return later to finish entering any remaining state tax information.
Can I view my PDF after I pay my fees?
Yes. Once you prepay your tax preparation fees, you'll be able to access and view your tax documents, including your PDF forms.
Reviewing your forms before filing is a great way to double-check your information and catch any errors. If you notice something that needs to be updated, simply return to the program, make your changes, and review the forms again.
You can view and revise your return as many times as needed before e-filing.
Will I have to pay again when I e-file?
No. After you've prepaid your tax preparation fees, you won't be charged a second time for those same forms when you're ready to e-file your return.
Paying in advance gives you full access to your forms while keeping the filing process simple when you're ready to submit your return.
