Description

CFS TaxTools ™ stands out as the leading software in the tax industry, widely embraced by professionals for its efficiency. The program allows worksheets to be printed with both the client's name and your firm's branding, ensuring a polished presentation. These worksheets can be attached to tax returns or provided to clients alongside generated invoices, streamlining the entire process. It features an extensive collection of tax forms, including numerous ones not typically available in standard tax preparation software, such as SS-4, Power of Attorney, and Offer in Compromise. Client details can be directly mapped onto the necessary forms, and multiple versions of each form can be stored for individual clients. The printed forms mirror their on-screen appearance precisely, and most can be conveniently sent as PDF files via email. Additionally, the software includes useful financial calculators like the Mutual Fund Average Cost Basis tool and various modules for loans and investments. Flowcharts within the program guide users through a series of questions to determine essential factors such as filing status and inherited IRA options, as well as eligibility for the "Kiddie Tax." Furthermore, the software allows for updates directly from the internet whenever there are changes to forms or tax laws, ensuring users always have the most current information, along with features for data backup and restoration for added security. This comprehensive suite of tools makes CFS TaxTools ™ an invaluable resource for tax professionals seeking to enhance their services.

Description

Drake Tax is packed with an array of features designed to streamline the preparation and processing of tax returns for your clients efficiently. This allows you to concentrate on what matters most—engaging with clients and expanding your business. With Drake Tax, you can expedite every aspect of return preparation, ensuring that calculation results and a comprehensive view of the return are just a click away. You have the ability to mark items in any text field, checkbox, or tax form amount as verified, flagged for review, or noted for further examination. If any information for a confirmed item changes, the DoubleCheck feature will promptly flag it for review. In addition, shortcut keys and macros help to simplify the data entry process, significantly reducing the number of keystrokes required. The software facilitates an automatic flow of data from federal returns to state and city returns, while also providing options for overrides when necessary. State and city returns are generated on demand, and it automatically accounts for taxes paid to other jurisdictions. Furthermore, Drake Tax conveniently auto-fills information based on ZIP Code and EIN inputs, enhancing accuracy and efficiency in tax preparation. With all these features combined, Drake Tax becomes an invaluable tool for tax professionals aiming to optimize their workflow.
