  • Georgia returnYes, with the Georgia Department of Revenue

Your situation, with its form

In Georgia you file two returns: the federal one (IRS) and the state one, with the Georgia Department of Revenue. Find your situation and see the box that matters on your form.

  • IRS Form W-2
    Box 17: what was withheld for Georgia. It goes on your state return.

    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 and Georgia returns.

    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. With an ITIN you file with the IRS and with Georgia.

    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 year with Obamacare

    You enroll

    Georgia has its own marketplace: Georgia Access. You enroll there, not on HealthCare.gov.
