Returns
What season are you in?
Track personal households and business entities through the full return lifecycle, from the first arriving document in January through the last filed extension in October, without losing the thread on any one return.
Documents arrive. Nothing gets lost.
Every W-2, 1099, and K-1 is tracked from the moment it lands. Your team sees exactly what's been received, what's missing, and who to follow up with. Before tax season gets hectic.
Deadlines stack up. Clarity keeps you steady.
Personal and business returns converge. The search-first interface cuts through the noise. Find any person, household, or entity instantly. No clicking through menus.
Business returns come due. You're ready.
1065s, 1120-Ss, and 1120s each have their own rhythm. Track entity types, filing deadlines, and extension statuses without switching contexts.
Every return filed. Every stone in place.
The year closes with a complete record. Every household accounted for, every entity filed or extended, every document tracked. Your cairn stands.
Fourteen built-in checks, so nothing gets overlooked.
Built-in monitoring watches every return in the firm for missing documents, approaching deadlines, unsigned engagements, and overdue extensions. Alerts surface automatically inside the app, with no manual tracking and no shared spreadsheet that someone has to remember to update.
