What you file

  • Federal return (IRS)Yes, like everywhere in the U.S.
  • Alaska returnNo, not for your wages

Your situation, with its form

In Alaska you only file the federal return (IRS): the state doesn't tax wages. Find your situation and see the box that matters on your form.

  • IRS Form W-2
    Box 17, state income tax: usually empty in Alaska.

    W-2 taxes

    I get a W-2 and have kids

    If an employer pays you by check or deposit, in January they give you a form called a W-2. With it and your kids' information we prepare your return and check the credits the law gives you.

  • IRS Form 1099-NEC
    Box 1a: what you were paid. It goes on your federal return.

    1099 taxes

    I'm paid in cash or through an app

    If you work for yourself (construction, cleaning, Uber, DoorDash…), that income is taxed too. You may get a 1099. We help you report what you earned and subtract your work expenses.

  • IRS Form W-7
    Form W-7 is the ITIN application: the IRS number to file without a Social Security number.

    ITIN (Form W-7)

    I don't have a Social Security number

    You can still file your taxes. You use an ITIN, a number issued by the IRS. We help you apply with Form W-7, for you and your dependents.

Your Obamacare in Alaska

We help you with your Obamacare in Alaska: enrolling, renewing and understanding what you pay. This is how the year goes, step by step.

Your year with Obamacare

  1. November 1 to January 15, 2027

    You enroll

    Alaska uses HealthCare.gov, the federal marketplace.

  2. Mid-February

    Form 1095-A arrives

    It arrives by mail by mid-February, and it may be in your Marketplace account as early as mid-January.

  3. By April 15

    We use it in your tax return

    It squares the help you got to pay for your insurance. Without the 1095-A your return can't be finished.
