Category: Using Priortax

Using Priortax is straightforward and easy. Our tax application guides you with simple prompts. Once done, pay and submit your tax return.

 

We support a wide range of IRS and State forms to help you file your tax returns correctly.

 

You can choose to either e-file or mail your tax return.

 

We can e-file tax returns for the current tax year and the two previous years. If your return is older than that, you’ll need to download, print, and sign it before mailing it to the IRS or state. Don’t worry, we’ll give you the correct mailing address for your prior-year return.

 

If you have any questions along the way, we’re here to help. Get free tax and technical help from our experts when you need it most. Contact us directly by phone or email!
