“Taxes can be nerve-wracking for even the most financially literate taxpayers,” said ExpressTaxRefund.com spokesperson Michele Tyson. “If we can take some pressure off our customers by providing live, free expert advice, then we’re happy to do just that.”

Since ExpressTaxRefund.com’s inception in 2002, the company has worked hard to build a robust set of features into an online service that takes the guesswork out of filing tax returns. The proprietary ExpressTaxRefund.com system walks the user through a series of questions, uses the answers to fill in the correct income tax forms, and checks all calculations for inconsistencies. The entire process takes as little as a few minutes, with customer service representatives standing ready to answer questions.

“If at any time during the ExpressTaxRefund.com process our clients have questions about any aspect of their taxes, we urge them to call our toll-free number for real help from real people,” Tyson stated. “There’s no reason to sweat over tax forms for hours when they can get their questions answered in minutes at no additional charge.”

The EITC is a credit for those taxpayers falling into the lower income tax brackets, explained Michele Tyson, ExpressTaxRefund.com spokesperson. It can reduce their taxes and result in a refund, allowing workers to keep more of what they earn.

According to the Internal Revenue Service, the EITC is one of the most far-reaching antipoverty initiatives. In fact, a whopping 24 million taxpayers claimed over $47 billion in the 2007 income tax year–but if past tax years are any indication, only 75% to 80% of people who qualify for the EITC will actually claim the credit on their 2008 income tax returns. ExpressTaxRefund.com wants that number to be closer to 100%.

However, like most things IRS-related, deciphering whether one is eligible for the EITC is a complex process involving numerous determinations and calculations. It’s a process some taxpayers find intimidating or downright impossible to tackle, causing them to forfeit the EITC altogether without knowing whether they qualify. Fortunately, ExpressTaxRefund.com’s live customer service representatives are available for free to everyone filing their 2008 income taxes at ExpressTaxRefund.com–and they can guide customers through the process of determining eligibility and claiming the EITC.

The EITC does good things for those taxpayers who qualify for it and who claim it, Tyson stated. We know that millions of children and their parents are able to take steps toward escaping poverty every year because of the credit. That’s why ExpressTaxRefund.com wants to see every qualifying taxpayer claiming the EITC on their 2008 income tax returns this year.

Filing income tax returns at ExpressTaxRefund.com starts at just $29.95; the company’s proprietary tax return system asks the user questions, fills in the necessary forms, and double-checks calculations, taking the stress out of income taxes. ExpressTaxRefund.com is an authorized E-file provider. To learn more, visit http://www.expresstaxrefund.com.

As in previous years, ExpressTaxRefund.com is one of the only online tax return services to offer free, expert advice live to any customer in need of assistance while filing their 2008 income taxes. The site is an IRS E-file provider and can file tax returns and process tax refunds to all 50 states.

But perhaps most important, ExpressTaxRefund.com remains the most user-friendly online tax return service available. The site’s proprietary software walks taxpayers through a short tax interview, then completes the appropriate state and federal income tax returns accordingly after checking for any errors. To make the process even simpler, ExpressTaxRefund.com has updated its system with all 2008 tax code changes.

Once the tax return is prepared, clients can choose to E-file directly with the IRS or print out their returns and mail them. Should they choose to E-file, the tax refund should arrive in two weeks or less.

Privacy is always a concern whenever Social Security numbers are transmitted, as they are with any online tax return service. To ensure lock-tight security, ExpressTaxRefund.com has built in multiple layers of confidentiality–including using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and restricting employee access to the information customers provide when filing their income tax returns.

Many people wait to file their income tax returns until the last possible day, stated ExpressTaxRefund.com spokesperson Michele Tyson. But at ExpressTaxRefund.com, we see many taxpayers filing as soon as they receive their W-2 forms so they can receive their tax refunds more quickly. We’re pleased to let those folks know ExpressTaxRefund.com is open for business and ready to help them file their income taxes.

ExpressTaxRefund.com income tax services start at just $29.95. To learn more, or to file 2008 income tax returns, visit ExpressTaxRefund.com at http://www.expresstaxrefund.com.

As it has been for the last six years, ExpressTaxRefund.com is the place to go to file for an extension of the tax deadline from April 15, 2008 to October 15, 2008. The company has representatives ready to offer advice and assistance to clients 7 days a week at no additional charge–a service many taxpayers have found to be invaluable as they file their tax returns and apply for automatic six-month extensions.

“There just aren’t many places where taxpayers can get free real-time help from a real person with answers to their questions,” stated ExpressTaxRefund.com representative Michele Tyson. “But it is common to have questions about the tax extension process. ExpressTaxRefund.com provides one place where taxpayers can apply for six-month extensions of the filing deadline and receive free telephone support. We want our customers to feel confident that they’ve done everything right when they submit those tax extension applications.”

Filing tax extension applications is just part of the package of customer-centric services ExpressTaxRefund.com offers its clients. Along with free 7 days a week telephone support, every customer is given the peace of mind that comes with using a simple interface that uses the company’s proprietary, industry-leading security software to safeguard customers’ information.

“We encourage taxpayers that need a little extra time to come to ExpressTaxRefund.com and file their Form 4868s,” said Tyson. “Our online service walks our customers through the sometimes daunting process of filing a tax return or a tax extension, and free help is available every step of the way.”

About ExpressTaxRefund.com

With two million visits monthly, ExpressTaxRefund.com is one of the most trusted tax filing services online.

“For people who are not required to file tax returns, 2008 is the year to file anyway,” Tyson stated. “Only those who file their returns will receive the stimulus payment, so that is obviously a big reason to come to ExpressTaxRefund.com and file tax returns. But beyond that, we really want folks to know that if they normally wouldn’t be required to file, they’ll likely qualify for some significant tax credits as well.”

Those credits include the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), a refundable federal tax credit for low-income workers, and the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit, a refundable tax credit available to workers who pay for care for their children and dependents. Together, they could give some taxpayers an extra boost, to the tune of up to $5,000 per family from the EITC and $1,000 per qualifying child or dependent from the Child Tax Credit.

“We’re talking about a significant amount of money for a lot of families, even without the economic stimulus payment,” said Tyson. “If any taxpayers were still on the fence about whether to file tax returns this year, factoring in the tax credits for those who qualify should convince them to hop off that fence and head to ExpressTaxRefund.com.”

ExpressTaxRefund.com’s tax filing services start at $29.95 and are fully automated and simple to use, thanks to the proprietary ExpressTaxRefund.com software.

The economic stimulus payment is available to Americans who earned at least $3,000 in 2007, have a valid Social Security number and file their 2007 tax returns. Full details are available at http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=177937,00.html.

“Taxpayers shouldn’t have to pay extra for things like extra copies of their own tax returns or assistance from a real, live person,” stated ExpressTaxRefund.com spokesperson Michele Tyson. “At ExpressTaxRefund.com, we pledge that certain services, which most taxpayers would consider necessities, will remain free of charge.”

Those services include live telephone support from tax experts seven days a week; a hard copy of the taxpayer’s tax returns mailed to his or her home or business; and storage of every customer’s tax returns for three full years on the secure ExpressTaxRefund.com servers – all at no cost to the customer.

It is in stark contrast to the business practices of the company’s competitors, but, said Tyson, ExpressTaxRefund.com operates on the principle that customer-centric service should not be reserved only for those who can pay for it.

Since its inception in 2002, ExpressTaxRefund.com has been making it easy for customers to file their tax returns and tax extensions online.

Customers simply answer a few questions, and ExpressTaxRefund.com does the rest. In as little as 15 minutes, the customer’s tax return is ready to sign and mail or e-file.

As a company in which tens of thousands of taxpayers put their trust each year, we feel we should not charge extra for peace of mind.”

Although the IRS filing deadline was later in 2007, ExpressTaxRefund.com reminds taxpayers returns or extension applications are due by April 15, 2008. To learn more, visit www.expresstaxrefund.com.

To get started, taxpayers can simply log on to http://www.expresstaxrefund.com/, click “open,” and fill out the ExpressTaxRefund.com Extension Wizard. Those who prefer not to e-file can still fill out the Form 4868, print it, and mail it to the IRS by April 17th.

ExpressTaxRefund.com spokesperson Michele Tyson cautioned taxpayers that a filing extension does not equal an extension of the time allowed to pay.

“The IRS does require taxpayers to pay at least $1 of their anticipated tax liability when they file the Form 4868,” Tyson explained. “They then have an additional six months to file and pay the remainder of their liability.”

ExpressTaxRefund.com has been making it easy for its clients to file their tax returns and tax extensions since 2002.

The innovative process walks clients through a simple interview, checks for errors and inconsistencies in the answers, and instantly fills in the correct IRS forms, which are then ready to sign and mail or e-file on the spot.

With reports of identity theft on the rise nationwide, ExpressTaxRefund.com has beefed up its security system and practices. The site runs on secure socket layers (SSL), the same technology financial institutions use to safeguard client information online. What’s more, ExpressTaxRefund.com limits employee access to client records, allowing only key employees to view client information, and then only when authorized by the client.

Because ExpressTaxRefund.com knows it can be daunting to file an extension with the IRS–after all, most taxpayers want to do everything right and avoid penalties–the company provides its clients live telephone assistance by tax experts. The service is available seven days a week via a toll-free number and is completely free of charge.

“Even with an extra couple of days to file this year, some taxpayers will find themselves unable to file their tax returns with the IRS on time,” said Tyson. “We at ExpressTaxRefund.com want them to know they have the option of extending their filing deadline. That can be a big stress relief to a lot of people. We invite taxpayers to come see how easy it is to file a Form 4868 at ExpressTaxRefund.com.”

To learn more, or to file an extension with the IRS, visit ExpressTaxRefund.com at http://www.expresstaxrefund.com.

“There may be some confusion about the actual federal filing deadline for 2006 tax returns, because the IRS initially named April 16th as the last day to file and pay,” said Tyson. “However, the IRS has now amended that date to April 17th in keeping with a federal statute under which legal holidays in Washington, D.C. apply to tax issues nationwide. ExpressTaxRefund.com wants to make sure our clients are all aware of the newly extended deadline.”

New and returning ExpressTaxRefund.com clients can e-file their returns and extension requests through April 17th. The process is quick and affordable, thanks to ExpressTaxRefund.com’s industry-leading online tax preparation system. The five-year-old site runs on a proprietary software platform that walks the client through a step-by-step interview, then uses the client’s answers to prepare a tax return on the spot, taking into account all applicable tax law changes.

That’s likely because ExpressTaxRefund.com offers its clients one of the top online tax preparation systems available. The five-year-old site runs on a proprietary software platform that walks the client through a step-by-step interview. ExpressTaxRefund.com uses the answers to those questions to prepare a tax return on the spot, taking into account all tax law changes each year.

There’s not another service out there exactly like ExpressTaxRefund.com.”

Another factor in the higher refund figure could be ExpressTaxRefund.com’s free customer support. At any step during the tax return process, ExpressTaxRefund.com clients can receive live, expert customer assistance – a feature for which many competitors charge extra and to which most do-it-yourself taxpayers simply don’t have access.

“We encourage those who have used other tax return preparation methods in the past, and who may have been disappointed in their refund amounts, to give ExpressTaxRefund.com a try,” said Tyson. “We think they will be pleasantly surprised by our customer focus, our industry-leading security measures, and our overall affordability.”
