Your First Priority – EFIN application!

If you do not yet have an EFIN for your tax office, this should be the number one priority for getting your office set up for the coming tax season. An EFIN is your tax office’s equivalent of an IRS license. This number allows you to electronically file tax returns for profit. Without an EFIN your office does not have a tracking number and is not able to apply for bank products. The approval process associated with getting an EFIN assigned takes approximately 6 weeks. If you have not started the EFIN process, please contact Federal Direct for assistance.
