File your Massachusetts taxes online with your federal return

How your Massachusetts return is prepared

• Answer the interview once. Your Massachusetts return is figured from the same answers as your federal return, plus a few Massachusetts questions.
• We e-file your federal return to the IRS.
• We prepare your Massachusetts return on DOR's own forms, with the schedules your answers need.

The Massachusetts forms we prepare

Full-year residents get Form 1. Nonresidents and part-year residents get Form 1-NR/PY instead.

The schedules your answers need are added with it, such as Schedule HC for health care coverage, Schedule DI for your dependents, Schedules B and D for interest, dividends and gains, and Schedule Y for other deductions. If you owe Massachusetts, we prepare the Form PV payment voucher with your return.

Massachusetts credits and deductions we figure for you

• The Massachusetts earned income credit, figured from your federal earned income credit.
• The Child and Family Tax Credit, for dependents under 13, dependents 65 or older and disabled dependents.
• The Senior Circuit Breaker Credit (Schedule CB), for qualifying homeowners and renters 65 or older.
• The rent deduction, if you rented your Massachusetts home.
• The credit for tax paid to another jurisdiction (Schedule OJC).

Your Massachusetts refund by Direct Deposit

Form 1 and Form 1-NR/PY have their own Direct Deposit line. Add your bank account and we fill it in, so your Massachusetts refund can go straight into your account.

In English or in Spanish

The whole interview is available in Spanish. Your Massachusetts forms are in English, the language the Massachusetts DOR publishes them in.
