INTUIT ESIGNATURE: ELECTRONIC TAX SIGNING SOFTWARE
Never chase client signatures again
Easily request, send, and collect digital signatures in one easy-to-use streamlined workflow.
Nearly 70% of eSignatures are completed in one day*
Quick, easy, convenient. eSignature is the modern, digital way to request tax document signatures.
Using eSignature is simple.
Here's how it works:
Why should you choose eSignature for your firm?
Clients can securely review and sign just about any document digitally, from anywhere, at any time, on any device—usually in less than 24 hours*. Plus, you can send up to 130 documents (or 25 MB) in one envelope, so it’s more efficient for both you and your clients.
- Any individual or business forms*
- IRS Forms 8878 and 8879
- Engagement letters and firm agreements
- Estimates and invoices
- Request for transcript (Form 4506-T)
- LLC formation documents
- Confidentiality agreements (NDAs)
- Power of attorney agreements
- Asset purchase agreements
- Reference documentation
- Payment requests (Lacerte only)
*The ability to add eSignature fields to all forms and documents, including business forms, has been enabled and is designed to be used at the preparer's discretion. Per the current IRS Guidelines, electronic signatures are only accepted for the Individual Modules. Please review IRS Publication 4163 and PMTA-2018-08 for more detail.
With eSignature’s enhanced global security standards, your clients will have peace of mind knowing their information is always secure. Send requests with the knowledge-based authentication (K.B.A) process, as required by the IRS for Forms 8878 and 8879.

- KBA:
Knowledge based authentication, also known as KBA, is an identity verification measure that requires end users to establish their identities through the use of specific security questions. The e-signature option is only available to taxpayers e-filing their tax returns through an Electronic Return Originator (ERO), who uses software that provides identity verification and e-signature functionality. To meet e-signature requirements, the ERO must be able to record the taxpayer’s name, social security number, address and date of birth electronically for identity verification purposes. As part of identity verification, the software may create what is known as a “soft inquiry” in the credit reporting industry. A soft inquiry is not a credit check, although it is conducted by a credit reporting company that uses information from the taxpayer’s credit report to generate knowledge-based authentication questions. Typically, the knowledge-based authentication questions address the taxpayer’s personal and financial history. These are usually multiple-choice questions such as the name of their mortgage lender, type of car financed, a former address or phone number. The taxpayer is expected to answer the questions correctly. Taxpayers who cannot complete the identity verification check cannot use e-signature. Ordinarily, knowledge based authentication is not mandatory for envelopes which do not contain Form 8878 or 8879 or their state equivalents.
The IRS accepts electronic signatures on forms 8878 and 8879. eSignatures can be used for a wide range of online documents apart from IRS forms such as engagement letters, contracts, invoices, NDAs, and bank documents. Please keep updated and compliant on what forms you can and cannot use in connection with the preparation of federal tax returns with the IRS. Most states also accept electronic signatures on forms 8878 and 8879 or their equivalent.
