No state income tax
Florida doesn't tax personal income, so most residents file a federal return only. That makes every federal credit and deduction count.

Tampa questions
Asked by your neighbors.
Don't see yours? Ask Kathy or call us.
Do I need to file a Florida state return?
No. Florida has no personal income tax, so most residents file a federal return only. If you moved here this year, you may still owe a part-year return to the state you left, and we file it too.
I'm stationed at MacDill. Which state do I file in?
Service members can generally keep their state of legal residence, and spouses can often elect it too. Your preparer reviews your orders and files the right states.
Is the AI interviewer accessible?
Yes. Kathy takes spoken answers, reads questions aloud, has no time limit and works with screen readers. You can always switch to a person.
Are you hiring preparers in Tampa?
Yes. We're building a remote team of 100 preparers for the 2027 season, and no prior tax experience is required to start training. Apply on our careers page.
