Our focus is, and has always been, on helping the independent tax professionals remain competitive in their markets. Last year, our system serviced more than 30,000 tax offices and issued more than $1 billion in advance loans to taxpayers. We also partner with and are integrated in more than a dozen tax software programs, making Refund Advantage an easy switch for most tax offices.
Tax Refund Solutions is committed to working with tax offices of the highest caliber. We want to ensure consumers are offered our tax products in a fair and responsible manner and that they are presented with clear choices in making their decision. As a stakeholder in the electronic filing industry, we endeavor to promote integrity throughout our program and to be a sound steward in the e-file process.
