When you schedule a tax appointment in Northport, you provide your W-2s, 1099 forms, receipts for deductions, Social Security numbers for dependents, and any documentation related to credits you want to claim. The preparer reviews your forms for missing information, enters your data into tax software, calculates your refund or balance due, and checks for common filing errors before submitting electronically to the IRS and state agency.



Once your return is filed, you receive a copy showing your refund amount, filing status, and any credits applied. If you chose the advance refund option and qualify, funds are available within hours rather than weeks. Your official IRS refund typically arrives by direct deposit within 21 days of acceptance, and you can track its status online using the IRS refund tool.

The faster you bring in complete documentation, the sooner your return moves through the system and your refund becomes available.
