We help the average person get more money back or pay less in by providing professional tax software to the nonprofessional taxpayer. Or, for the tax preparer, we have every federal and state form you could possibly need for online preparation. Software, tax forms, list forms and even a status checker are all available to you at 1040return.com.

Use our tax prep software, tax forms and guidance to make sure you have taken all the deductions to which you are entitled in order to get the highest possible refund. For example, did you know that you could be eligible for a refund of long-distance phone calls? A federal law dating back to 1898, which taxed long-distance phone service to finance the Spanish-American War, was repealed. As a result, anyone who made a long-distance call between Feb. 28, 2003, and Aug. 1, 2006, is eligible to receive the refund. Standard refunds are between $30 and $60 per household, but if you can back up your call records for that period, you may be entitled to more. Use professional tax software to itemize this and other deductions annually to make sure you're not leaving out important, overlooked benefits.

Taxes are rarely as simple as filling out one, one-page form and being done with it. However, it can be much simpler this year, no matter who you decide to enlist as your tax preparer. Software that is uncomplicated and intuitive is a vital first step in simplifying that process, but also make sure you have the right forms handy.
