Frequently asked questions

E-file refers to the electronic filing of tax returns and forms. It's the process of transmitting your completed tax return to the IRS and state directly over the internet. It has several major advantages over printing and mailing a paper return:

  • Faster Refund — The IRS issues most e-filed refunds in less than 21 days, especially with direct deposit. Paper-filed returns can take 6-8 weeks or longer.  
  • More Accurate — Our software does all the math for you, and e-filing reduces the errors that can happen with manual IRS data entry.  
  • More Secure — It's more secure than mail. Your data is encrypted and sent directly to the IRS, eliminating the risk of your return being lost or stolen in transit.  
  • Get Confirmation — You receive an official electronic confirmation (in as little as 24 hours) that the IRS has received and accepted your return, giving you immediate peace of mind.
