Jackson Hewitt® Offers Taxpayers Convenient, Safe Way to File Taxes
As Businesses Close Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic, Taxpayers Who Need Their Refund Money Can Still File with a Tax Pro
"At Jackson Hewitt, the health and wellbeing of our clients, Tax Pros, and communities is of the utmost importance and we are cooperating with actions taken by government officials to stop the spread of COVID-19," said Alan D. Ferber, CEO of Jackson Hewitt. "We also know that many taxpayers could really use their refund money, especially Americans who find themselves without work or unable to pay bills. We hope Jackson Hewitt's ways to file are one small way we can help."
Jackson Hewitt Tax Pro From Home is a new service this year that allows clients to upload all necessary tax documents online and a skilled Tax Pro will review all documents, connect with the client to answer any questions, complete the tax preparation, and file the tax return – all without the client ever coming to an office. Once Jackson Hewitt has everything needed, the return will be ready for review within 24 hours, or it's free – guaranteed. In addition to this 24-hour guarantee1, taxpayers who choose Jackson Hewitt Tax Pro From Home also receive the Lifetime Accuracy Guarantee2 and Guaranteed Biggest Refund or $1003 that comes with tax returns filed with Jackson Hewitt.
For clients in areas still being served by local businesses, Jackson Hewitt Tax Pros are practicing social distancing, have increased cleaning practices outlined by local and national health officials, and are moving to "appointment only" so walk-ins don't create idle time or gatherings in a lobby. The company also strongly encourages all clients to take advantage of its Document Drop-off service. Clients can visit jacksonhewitt.com to get a personalized checklist of needed documents, drop them off at an office, and can then finish their return from home.
MyJH allows clients to upload tax documents to their MyJH account from home, work with their trusted Tax Pro, have their return prepared, and come in quickly to sign when the return is ready.
"During this difficult and ever-changing time, we know we are all in this together and we continue to serve our clients, get them their much-needed refunds while following the guidance of our local and national health officials," Ferber added.
