A slot like deduction receipts can allow multiple files, so a pile of scans lands together under one label instead of scattering.
Collect a Complete Tax File on the First Pass
Tax season dies by a thousand follow-ups: the W-2 arrives but not the 1099, the receipts come as one blurry photo, and the prior-year return shows up in April. The Individual Tax Organizer pairs a filing questionnaire with a named document checklist, so your client can see exactly what a complete file looks like — and AI keeps it organised as documents arrive.
The Journey
You've imported the Individual Tax Organizer, and filing season has opened.
- You
You send each client their organizer link — one request covering the questionnaire and the full document checklist.
- Your client
Your client answers the filing questions, then works down the checklist: W-2s, 1099s, mortgage interest, prior-year return, deduction receipts — each into its own labelled slot.
- Your client
For the stragglers they find later, you request an update — the same checklist reopens for them with the empty slots waiting.
- FolioReady
FolioReady reads every document as it lands, summarising each one, and any file you add by hand gets matched to the slot it belongs in — a scanned W-2 photo lands under W-2 without you filing it.
- You
You glance at the checklist, see exactly which slots are still empty, and let automatic reminders chase the rest.
- The result
A complete, pre-sorted tax file per client — every document in its slot, nothing left in an inbox.
What You're Left With
A folio per client where the checklist is the status report: filled slots are done, empty slots are what's missing. Each document carries a synopsis, the questionnaire answers are structured data, and misfiled documents take one click to unbind.
