Streamline tax engagements with ShareFile’s Income Tax Return solution

It’s often difficult for accounting professionals to collaborate effectively. Whether it’s managing complex client interactions, spending time on tedious, manual workflows, or switching among half a dozen tools to get work done, essential processes are often disjointed and, as a result, the client experience suffers.

That’s why we created solutions. ShareFile wants to simplify everyday processes and empower accounting professionals with customized workflows that are ready to use, so accountants can get exactly what they need for engagements, all in one place.

Simplify tax return processes

The Income Tax Return solution streamlines the client engagement process for individual and business tax returns, from onboarding to gathering the documents required for the return to signing 8879 forms. With the solution, accounting professionals can:

• Standardize client engagements for individual and business tax returns: Organize tax services with ready-to-use templates for individual and business tax preparation — forms 1040, 1065, 1120-S, 1120-C, and 990
