Complete a Tax Organizer as a taxpayer

Tax Organizer
overview

My Tax Organizer
is a web-based version of your tax questionnaire. Instead of completing it on paper, you will have a secure portal where you can give your tax preparer the information necessary to complete your tax return.
To get started, use the link in the initial email to sign in to your portal. If this is your first time signing in, your username is your email. You'll also be prompted to create a unique password.
