What to Consider When Getting Self Tax Filing Software

Small businesses need self tax filing software to help them submit all of their tax documents accurately and on time. Despite the e-file rate for business returns being historically lower than the individual e-file rate, expanded e-file requirements are just one reason why it is worthwhile to get independent software. A comprehensive electronic filing program will keep your small business compliant with constantly changing regulations. A tax filing system will help reduce errors, save time, and streamline the different tax processes.

Advanced Micro Solutions’ 1099-etc E-File software is a great option to eliminate the cost of expensive 1099 and W-2 forms. Our affordable system offers two e-file options: E-File Direct (add-on) or E-File Services.

 

Does My Small Business Need Self Tax Filing Software?

It is often less about whether your small business needs electronic filing support and instead when you should invest in it. A couple of questions to ask yourself as you consider your next steps are:

How complex is my our situation? Think about whether your business has simple W-2 filings or more complex returns that require extensive tools. Consider if you hire workers with different worker classifications as well. The amount of forms that you need to file will dictate which E-Filer system is the best option for you.

Do we already have sufficient tax guidance and support? Finding step-by-step guidance is possible with self tax filing software. Even someone who is less experienced with using a small business’s tax system can get an intuitive interface rather than spending money on tax experts.

What is my budget? Finding an affordable tax program within your budget is better than any free version. Paying for features and support will help prevent you from getting software with limitations and not enough tools.

Have you had issues with tax filing accuracy? Forgetting to file certain forms or missing their deadlines is much easier to avoid with electronic filing capabilities. An E-Filer goes a long way toward keeping your business on track and everyone satisfied.
