Tax Filing Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
Does etaxservice.com stand behind it’s work?
When you pay for tax preparation at etaxservice.com you are automatically covered under our “etax” guarantee which entitles you to reimbursement for penalties charged by a taxing authority if our tax specialist makes an error on your return.
Remember, the accurate preparation of your tax return is your responsibility as the Taxpayer. You will have the opportunity to review your tax return before it is filed with the federal, state and city governments – if you notice that any information is wrong or missing please notify us immediately so that we may make the necessary corrections.
How do I change the amount withheld from my check for taxes?
Use a Form W-4, Employees’ Withholding Allowance Certificate that you may request from your employer.
How do I get a copy of a prior tax return and W-2?
As long as you filed your tax return with the IRS, you can request a photocopy or computer transcript of the information on your filed return at no charge. If you need an actual copy of the return or W-2, you will need to complete a Form 4506 and pay a $39 fee for the return and related information, like your W-2.
How do I get my Form W-2?
Your employer is required to provide your completed W-2 showing your compensation and tax withholding amounts for the calendar year by January 31. If you do not receive it, contact your employer. If it is not received by February 15, call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 to register a complaint. Provide your tax specialist with your last pay stub until your W-2 is received.
How much does it cost to have my taxes prepared by etaxservice.com?
