Before you start

A few things to know about TakoTax

Your tax work stays local during prep

Tax documents you add, data you enter, and forms you generate are processed and stored locally during normal preparation. Standard infrastructure logs may still include limited operational data.

No cloud account or recovery

Your work is saved in browser local storage. Project file export and import are not available yet, so there is no backup or recovery path if browser storage is cleared. Do not use TakoTax on shared or public computers.

TakoTax is software, not a tax advisor

TakoTax does not provide tax advice. Review every generated form before filing. For advice on your tax situation, consult a qualified tax professional.

E-file is not available

TakoTax prepares forms you can download and file separately. It does not submit your return to the IRS or state agencies. Built-in e-file may be offered later for a fee.
