Abstract: A method for submitting and receiving information required for tax filing contains a mobile interface and a website interface. A client submits information through the mobile interface. Personal information and digital photographs of at least one identification card and received tax documentation are submitted by the client through a client account. Required tax information is extracted from the digital photographs submitted by the client account. The personal information and the required tax information are stored on a secure server. A tax preparer accesses the secure server through a tax preparer account. More specifically, the tax preparer account accesses the secure server through the website interface. When the personal information and the required tax information are reviewed and edited by the tax preparer account, the tax preparer account can proceed with the tax filing process through the website interface.
