Tips for using the portal

• Scanned documents should be sent as PDF files whenever possible. Other formats may not be compatible in the portal as well as can be difficult to read.
• We can also accept QuickBooks data files, Word documents, and Excel worksheets.
• Try to wait until you have received all of your tax documents before sending them in. Multiple uploads makes it difficult to be sure that we have retrieved all your information.
• Files do not stay in the portal indefinitely. Please download and save files to your own hard drive. All files on the portal expire 6 months after being uploaded.

Direct Debit: Your balance due will be debited upon eFile acceptance. It is your responsibility to make sure that the funds are available, and to verify your account is debited before the deadline.
