CFS TaxTools™ is the most widely used program of its kind in the tax profession!

Released January of each year

Features:

  • Worksheets print with the client's name and your firm name in a professional quality format. Include them as attachments to the tax return or present to the client with an invoice, which can also be generated by TaxTools.


  • Hundreds of tax forms included (many not found in tax preparation software), such as SS-4, Power of Attorney and Offer in Compromise.


  • Client information is mapped directly onto the form. Multiple versions of a form may be saved for a client. Forms print exactly as they appear on screen. Most forms can be e-mailed as a PDF.


  • Handy financial calculators, including Mutual Fund Average Cost Basis and several Loan and Investment modules.


  • Flowcharts allow you to answer a series of questions to determine filing status, inherited IRA options, whether the taxpayer falls under the "Kiddie Tax" rules, etc. Update from the internet when forms or laws change.


  • Data backup and restore. Save clients to any type of storage device and easily retrieve them with a few clicks.


  • Client and preparer database. Add an unlimited number of clients, employees, and preparers. Easily manage them with our intuitive interface.
