How TaxDashers works, pricing, security, and refunds.

Still have questions? Our team can help.

Individual taxes

W-2s, families, multiple states, and prior years.

How much does it cost?

Pricing depends on the complexity of your return. You'll know the cost before any work begins.

Can you file a prior-year return?

Yes. If you missed filing in an earlier year, a tax professional can help you gather what's needed and file. If you filed but need to fix something, see our amended returns service.

Can you help if I lived in more than one state?

Yes. We can prepare part-year and multi-state returns. Let us know every state where you lived or earned income during the year.

What documents should I gather?

Common ones include W-2s, any 1099 forms, Form 1098 for mortgage interest, childcare and education expenses, health coverage forms, and last year's return. Your tax professional will send a personalized checklist, and you'll upload everything through the secure portal.

Who is individual tax preparation for?

W-2 employees, families, students, retirees, people with side income, and anyone who lived or worked in more than one state. If you're not sure whether your situation fits, start online and we'll let you know.

Need help with quarterly taxes?

Business taxes

LLCs, S corporations, partnerships, and sole proprietors.

Do you offer support after tax season?

Yes. Tax planning is available year-round, including estimated payments, record-keeping, and planning ahead for big changes in your business.

Can you help me choose a business entity?

We can explain how different entity types are taxed so you can make an informed decision. Legal questions about forming or changing an entity should go to an attorney.

Can you help with estimated taxes?

Yes. A tax professional can estimate what you're likely to owe and help you plan quarterly payments so there are fewer surprises at filing time.

What records will my business need?

Typically a profit-and-loss statement, bank and credit card statements, 1099s you received or issued, payroll reports, records of equipment or vehicle purchases, and last year's return. Organized books make preparation faster and more accurate.

What types of businesses do you work with?

Sole proprietors, single-member and multi-member LLCs, partnerships, and S corporations. Not sure if your business fits? Get started and we'll let you know.
