Preview. The IRS has not yet approved Gideon Tax to e-file Form 1139. You can fill it in and we prepare it, but it is not e-filed with the IRS as an approved return until that approval arrives.

File Form 1139 — Corporation Application for Tentative Refund

Carry back a net operating loss, net capital loss, or unused general business credit to a preceding year for a quick corporate refund. File separately — not with the corporation's income tax return.

$20 flat per filing (a person reviews and files every application). Currently in preview — data collection is live and e-file is in progress.
