You also are solely responsible for reviewing, approving, and authorizing the filing of your tax return in a timely manner, as well as verifying the status of your tax return.

April’s Referral Partners may charge you, or have April charge you, a fee for the use of April’s tax filing services.
Refund and Tax Payment Options: For federal and state refund and tax payment options, the filer currently only offers ACH direct deposit and check as options. The filer does not currently allow for money orders, wire payments/deposits, credit cards, or installment plans.
Maximum Refund Guarantee: If you find an error in the tax preparation that entitles you to a larger refund (or smaller liability), April will refund any fees you paid to April to use its filer to prepare that return and you may use our service to amend your return at no additional charge. To qualify, the larger refund or smaller tax liability must not be due to differences or inaccuracies in data supplied by you, your choice not to claim a deduction or credit, positions taken on your return that are contrary to law, or changes in federal or state tax laws.
Accuracy Guarantee: If April’s tax preparation software makes a mathematical error that results in your payment of a penalty and/or interest to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) that you would otherwise not have been required to pay, April will reimburse you up to a maximum of $10,000.
Assistance: If you receive an audit letter from the IRS or a state tax authority in connection with an accepted tax return filed through April, April will provide you with informational assistance, such as responses to FAQs or links to resources on the IRS’s or other tax authority’s website. April will not represent you before the relevant tax authority or provide legal advice.
