What the Tax module does

Everything between "the client said yes" and "the return is e-filed."

The Tax module turns tax season into a pipeline you can see. Every return gets its own document checklist based on the client's situation, clients are chased for what is missing, and each return moves through clear stages — intake, documents complete, in preparation, in review, awaiting signature, e-filed — so nothing sits unnoticed in February.

Staff and clients both get deadline alerts, engagement letters and Form 8879 go out for e-signature automatically, and a capacity view shows how many returns each preparer can still take on before April.

Tax-Season Intake

Clients confirm their engagement, answer a short situational questionnaire, and land in the pipeline with the right checklist — no manual setup per return.

Per-Return Document Checklists

W-2s, 1099s, K-1s, 1098s, brokerage statements, and prior-year returns tracked by name and status for every return. Escalating reminders for whatever is still missing.

Return Status Tracking

Every return tracked from intake to e-filed. Clients can check status any time instead of calling, and your team sees the whole season at a glance.

E-Signature Collection

Engagement letters, Form 8879 e-file authorizations, and consent forms sent for e-signature automatically, with reminders until they are signed.

Deadline Alerts for Staff and Clients

Federal and state due dates, extensions, and estimated payments trigger alerts to the preparer and, when it helps, to the client — on a cadence you control.

Capacity Planning for the Jan–Apr Crunch

See returns booked against each preparer's capacity by week. Know when to stop taking new work, file extensions, or bring in seasonal help — before the bottleneck hits.

Built on the FirmFlow Core

The Tax module extends the office-management core every FirmFlow plan includes.

Core handles document chasing, deadline tracking, email triage, client onboarding, and billing & AR for the whole firm. The Tax module plugs into the same client records, portal, and email channel, so a document a client uploads for their return is the same document Core stops chasing, and a tax deadline shows up on the same firm-wide calendar.
