40+ YEARS. 60+ MILLION RETURNS.
The kind of trusted expertise that comes with a lifetime of experience.
FEDERAL RETURNS ONLY. If you are entitled to a refund larger than we initially determined, we’ll refund the tax preparation fees paid for that filed return (other product and service fees excluded) and give you an additional $100. You must submit a valid claim and file an amended return with Jackson Hewitt by the annual IRS deadline for the year of your tax return. Same tax facts must apply. Terms, restrictions, and conditions apply. Most offices are independently owned and operated.
Lifetime Accuracy Guarantee: If there is an error preparing your return resulting in an increased tax liability, the local office that prepared your return will reimburse you for penalties and interest (but not additional taxes) owed. You must notify us within 30 days of receiving initial notice from a taxing authority and provide necessary documents and/or assistance. Terms, restrictions, and conditions apply. Most offices are independently owned and operated.
