Fast Refunds – Taxpayers using CompleteTax’s electronic filing and automatic direct deposit option can get their refunds twice as fast as they would if they’d mailed their return. Those owing money who file electronically also can pay the balance due on their federal and select state taxes via direct payment from their bank account.
