Printers, pens, stamps, envelopes … In this age of technology, there’s a lot that just isn’t necessary to sign your tax return. If your life can be easier, why shouldn’t it be?
To enhance the service we provide our clients, we have automated the individual, business and trust return process with SafeSend Returns™ technology. You can take care of the delivery, review and signature of your federal and state tax returns from the convenience of your computer, smartphone or tablet.
SafeSend Returns™ allows us to deliver your return securely and walks you through the steps of downloading and saving the PDF of your tax return to your device or you can receive your tax return via secure email.
SafeSend Returns™ is another way to go green. No more ink, postage or paper which is great for our planet and future generations to come.
SafeSend Returns™ saves you time and allows you to e-sign your 1040 federal and state, receive estimated tax reminder emails, and pay your taxes and your invoice directly from your device.
SafeSend Returns™ allows you to download, sign and conveniently distribute K-1’s electronically. This saves you time so that you can focus on what really matters, your business!
Clients who use SafeSend Returns™ will be able to:
Those who qualify will be able to review their tax return, sign their e-file authorization form(s), and return it quickly and securely to The CPA Group PC, directly from the SafeSend Returns™ platform.
The process is easy and works as follows:
Check your spam/junk email folder. You can also search your email for noreply@safesendreturns.com. Some email clients hide items they’ve labeled spam or junk, making certain emails difficult to find. If you do not receive your code within the 10-minute time limit, please request another code.
There is currently no SafeSend Returns app available, but the signature process can be completed on any computer, smartphone, or tablet via a web browser.
Yes. If you’re using a smartphone or tablet, you may not be able to download and print your return, but you will be able to review and electronically sign it. Don’t worry — you can always download and print your return from your personal computer at a later date.
If estimated payments are included in your review copy, you will automatically receive an email reminder seven days before your payment is due.
The CPA Group PC will offer the ability to return your originals or we will scan and upload them with your tax return.
Yes. Email notifications will be sent from The CPA Group PC at noreply@safesendreturns.com. We recommend adding this email address to your safe list to prevent the email from getting filtered to spam/junk.
Yes. SafeSend Returns offers a secure system to view and sign your e-file authorization form(s). Look for HTTPS:// at the beginning of the site URL and a locked padlock symbol in your browser’s URL bar to confirm you are on the secure site.
The questions SafeSend Returns asks are knowledge-based questions pulled from government and credit sources. You may be asked questions such as where you lived in a given year, or when you bought your car or home. In the event the questions do not apply to you, simply choose the answer that accurately reflects this. If you don’t remember the answers to the questions, or you answer incorrectly, you won’t be able to electronically sign your e-file authorization form(s). You can instead print, sign, and return your e-file authorization form(s) to The CPA Group PC. SafeSend Returns will also offer an option to upload the signed documents to our office.
SafeSend Returns allows you to electronically sign your individual e-file authorization form(s), but it won’t submit your return to the IRS. Once signed, The CPA Group PC is automatically notified, and we will then complete the filing process for you, including submission to the IRS.
For spouses filing jointly, there are three ways to sign via SafeSend Returns:
The CPA Group PC will deliver your dependent’s return using SafeSend Returns. However, some dependents may not have sufficient government and financial data available to successfully complete the electronic signature process. If there is not enough data available, your dependent will be given the option to download and sign their forms.
While an electronic signature is certainly easier and more convenient, you can still print, sign and mail your e-file form(s) back to The CPA Group PC if you’d prefer to do so.
Yes, once you sign your e-file authorization form(s), you will receive an email stating it was successful. The email will also include a link to download a copy of your tax return for your records.
In limited circumstances, you may need to print and mail information to government authorities. Common examples include tax and estimate payment vouchers and local income tax returns. If forms need to be printed and mailed, you will receive clear instructions. You will also be provided options to make tax payments electronically if you prefer not to mail payments.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact our office at (417) 235-3650. Additional help and resources are also available through the SafeSend Returns Help Center.
