Document Request List: You will have a customized list of “requested items” based on your prior-year return and how you answer the questionnaire. This serves as our checklist of what is needed to prepare your return.

  • Digital Documents: You can easily upload them to Tax Caddy via the app or your computer.
  • Printed Documents: You can take a picture with the TaxCaddy mobile app – regular Camera app photos cannot be accepted. If you’ve ever made a mobile deposit to the bank, this is the same technology. Easy!
