Businesses can e-file state, federal income taxes together

BOISE, Idaho (KIFI) — Businesses wanting to prepare and e-file both their federal and state income tax returns should visit the Idaho State Tax Commission website.

The Tax Commission’s Business income tax e-file providers page links to authorized software providers that offer electronic filing for corporations, S corporations, partnerships and fiduciaries.

Software providers’ fees and services vary. Businesses should compare the offers to see which one best serves their needs.
