This is a list of items that everyone will need to bring to their appointment. For more specific information, scroll to the bottom of the page. International Students and individuals who have a Schedule C Tax Form will need to bring additional information.

Bring Social Security Cards or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) documents for you, your spouse, and/or your dependents. Make sure you also have birthdates for yourself, your spouse, and/or your dependents.

Tax Forms

Bring either a printed or legible digital copy of all of your W-2 and 1099 tax forms. Please also bring any other tax forms you may have received, either by mail or digitally. This might include but is not limited to: 1095-A, 1095-B, 1095-C, or 1098-T.

Bank Account

In order to have your refund directly deposited into your account, you will need to bring proof of your account, the account number, and your bank's routing number. This information can be digital or printed.

Information

Bring information for all deductions and credits, including your charitable contributions. Also, bring with you any information for income unrelated to your other tax forms. If you have a copy of your tax return from last year, you can bring that too (this is not required but is helpful).
