Tax Return Preparation Requirements:

All new clients are required to verify their identity with two forms of identification such as a driver's license, passport and/or other official government issued ID prior to the provision of tax services. The photo in the presented ID as well as the ID itself will be verified for authenticity.

New clients who have created new accounts with the IRS and verified their identity using ID.me will be considered verified to TaxJets ID standards.  

In addition to verifying the authenticity of ID documents, all W-2 forms as well as all other information returns (1099s, etc.), bank statements, credit card statements and any assertion of earned income from any type of business enterprise will be verified for authenticity prior to provision of tax services. 

To prevent EITC fraud, Schedule C business tax returns will require businesses to have an EIN and a business bank account in the name of the business that displays a history of transactions for legitimate business products and/or services prior to the provision of any business tax return services.
