Electronic filing or e-file reduces the time it takes to get your tax refund, but you must have a valid Social Security number for every person included on the return. Jackson Hewitt has taken electronic filing to a new level. We've developed a process that reduces errors even further and manages the entire electronic filing process to get your refund to you as quickly as possible.

Our return preparation process is designed to ensure accuracy with every step. During your tax interview, your tax preparer uses the ProFiler® software, which contains built-in error-checking and diagnostics. Your return is analyzed as it is transmitted to our Corporate Headquarters where it is error-checked again.

The next step in the electronic tax filing process is to transmit your tax filing to the IRS and the appropriate state Department of Revenue, if applicable. We receive acknowledgements from these tax authorities, so that we can be assured of providing your refund in the time frame that you have chosen.

Jackson Hewitt's proven tax preparation flow and system of error-checking assures you of the fastest and most accurate electronic tax filing and processing possible.

If you qualify to e-file, you may also be able to get a loan on your tax refund in as little as one day by requesting a Refund Anticipation Loan.
