E-filing of 2005 Individual Tax Returns

Due to recent state mandates (and encouragement from the IRS), all qualifying individual income tax returns prepared by Untracht Early LLC will be electronically filed. This process means we will transmit your tax returns for you, eliminating the need for you to mail paper tax returns.

Here is how the e-file process works:

1. We prepare your tax returns as usual.
2. You review the tax returns for accuracy.
3. You sign and return to our office an authorization form allowing us to e-file your returns.
4. We electronically transmit your tax returns.

We will forward your copy of the tax returns as a PDF file on CD.

If you are due a refund, you may have your refund directly deposited into your bank account or you may receive a paper check in the mail. If you have a balance due, you may pay by check, direct debit, or by credit card. For credit card payments, a convenience fee is charged by the credit card processing agent. Although we may e-file your returns prior to April 15th, your payment will not be due until April 15th.

Advantages of e-filing:

1. You receive your refund faster, usually within 2-3 weeks.
2. e-filing helps reduce filing errors.
3. There is no need to send a bulky paper copy to the IRS and the state, eliminating postage costs to you.

If you should have any questions about the e-filing program, please contact us.
